Whether this transaction gets replace or not is not going to prove definitively that puzzle 66 will or will not be hijacked when the solver tries to withdraw it (with a public transaction). There are miners that observe the RBF rule and miners that observe the Full RBF rule. So the miner actually produces the block will determine if it is going to get replaced or not.

Yes, I agree with this. I've observed some unusual occurrences because not all miners adhere to the same rules. There have been instances where transactions with lower fees were mined instead of those with higher fees, such as 20 satoshis per virtual byte (sat/vB) being chosen over 200 sat/vB. This happens because not all miners promptly update their block templates when a transaction's fee is increased by a bot. Therefore, even if you offer the highest fee, there's no guarantee you'll win the mining competition.

I just finish my bot, i just did a test in mainnet for address: 1Sk4K8upb9beiKZtxnbN6DYLkHWhhKf5Z

First TX for reveal the Publickey was 1sat/vB 5bc8a39149f4f5a421418d36c173d941053b39ad896aa1d986a0e1e7e2e14471
Second TX made fully automated was 8sat/vB 88e918f1d5a92640036a913d2eae6f6f55619161a8bd4ec6641c3372138f0047
And some oher with 12 and 16 sat/vB
9c27f54778b3642a99baefaad748bb2fa1633209d71a2abb5115377974f1e7a6
9657ead0a66aade90b48d25d43252172e905f232ec081c2cc14a3bbb91dd7f62

All TX were made by the bot full automated

TX where broadcasted useing the mempool.space API

https://mempool.space/docs/api/rest#post-transaction

Sometimes i get some weirds errors like:

Code:
sendrawtransaction RPC error: {"code":-26,"message":"txn-mempool-conflict"}
sendrawtransaction RPC error: {"code":-26,"message":"insufficient fee, rejecting replacement b15dd6cccc3dd9d40452e8fdb3f9a05003b8ac273fcccb0dc31e4d837d86f822; new feerate 0.00014382 BTC/kvB <= old feerate 0.00016507 BTC/kvB"}

This is because i was stoping the bot and starting it again, just to try to catch those errors:

Something that helpme to do a lot of test with a single TX was that the previous block was mined half hour before



Finding out how fast the BSGS server is.. And after that it became clear to me what this sentence means.

I am glad that you like it!
