Hello,

i tried puzzle factoring and took for testing purposes puzzle 64.

Code:
64  | 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000F7051F27B09112D4 | 16jY7qLJnxb7CHZyqBP8qca9d51gAjyXQN | 03100611c54dfef604163b8358f7b7fac13ce478e02cb224ae16d45526b25d9d4d

Since the private key for #64 is known, i used some websites to get its factor and did a test for puzzle 64.

I used the following strides, and surprisingly i don't know the reason why it didn't catch the private key even though i subtract 1 because of the starting private key, still didn't hit.  Huh

Possible_Strides_For_Puzzle_64:
Code:
124 544615 496846
249 089230 993692
394 391282 406679
788 782564 813358
1183 173847 220037
1577 565129 626716
2366 347694 440074
4732 695388 880148
78068 716480 606301
156137 432961 212602
234206 149441 818903
312274 865922 425204
468412 298883 637806
936824 597767 275612
1 483305 613131 519719
2 966611 226263 039438
4 449916 839394 559157
5 933222 452526 078876
8 899833 678789 118314

None of those strides worked, so i must have did a mistake? Would be nice having your opinions.
don't know if this would work but have you tried turning them into hex form
