Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it
It is simply a crude measuring instrument, of the cracking strength of the community.
Finally, I wish to express appreciation of the efforts of all developers of new cracking tools and technology. The "large bitcoin collider" is especially innovative and interesting!

Actions the creator should take if he really wants to test the strength of Bitcoin:
Reveal the puzzles already claimed.
This would reduce uncertainty and speculation.
Reveal the public keys (pubkeys) from 110 to 160.
This way, we will know how far he has advanced in the cracking methods. As far as we know, puzzles 130 and 125
could have been just a matter of luck. If he reveals these keys, when the others start to be found, we will know
precisely the progress, and it will also encourage research.
Encourage developers with donations.
He can make sporadic donations to active developers with the best tools. This way, new ideas will be revealed.
Currently, very few want to share their best ideas for fear that a big miner will take them without even thanking them.
Otherwise, this topic will die over time, and the desire to innovate will too.
I reached out to the creator personally over PP on September 16, initially to defend him from some unfair criticism. I asked questions and made suggestions about the project, such as revealing more information to reduce speculation and encouraging developers. Unfortunately, I didn’t receive a direct response from him.
However, after that, there was an interesting development involving puzzles 66 and 130.

It made me realize that this might have been his indirect way of responding to my questions and engaging with the community.
