Hi.
Three years ago i first heard about the puzzle. At first i was interested in reading about this, then i started solving it. I was looking for software, formulas, theories, like all the other solvers, i developed a lot of my own software. I bought and rented gpus, cpus, servers, but did not give up, because solving the puzzle would help me solve some financial difficulties. I didn't notice how the first year passed.
The idea of opening the puzzle took hold of me and it turned into an addiction. I'm not a gambler, never liked it, but puzzles turned out to be a much more severe addiction, because i always had the feeling that everything depended on my knowledge and perseverance, and not on luck. But i was wrong.
I tried to stop many times, talked about it with a psychologist, came up with various forms of prohibition, but this only fueled in me a greater desire to solve at least one puzzle.
At work, i became inattentive, i was demoted, then fired altogether, because i did not perceive new information well and no longer met the required level. I got into debt because i couldn’t get a good job again, i started taking medications that the doctor prescribed for me, but it didn’t help. Six months ago i developed insomnia, became nervous, and almost stopped communicating with my wife, although i wanted to. Three months ago she couldn’t stand it and left me. I sold almost everything to pay off some of my debts and survive. In 2 weeks, i am going of my own free will for three months to a clinic for people with mental disorders. This is the only thing that will help me avoid going to court for failure to pay bank debts and gives me hope that under the supervision of doctors and in complete isolation i will be able to get rid of this addiction.

I don’t know how many people created the puzzle, who you are, what goals you actually pursue, but one thing i can tell you is that even the most insignificant idea at first glance always has consequences. When creating such toys as a puzzle, you did't think about others. The reward that is stored in every wallet is a bait that can become poison for someone.
I want to blame you, but i can't, because i'm not an evil person. Perhaps i will feel better that i have told you all this.
Maybe you think something like "just do your job and don't look at puzzle" - please, stop, you just know nothing about the disease of addiction.

If you can, please help me close at least some of my debts. My wallet is bc1q7pp4h4wc8p8czajfkwc7sc049d9vyrc8ftnct2

If you don't, i'll understand.
