No idea what "desired result" should mean to you, but his code only counts the total iterations, not the number of operations. At each iteration, there is a cycle handling loop and additional code to create new starting points and do additional jumps from base points to the new created points. These are not counted at all in his statistics of his "K" so his SOTA complexity breakthrough is incorrect so basically what I'm saying is that he suffers of so much boredom he can't see his own code bugs, instead he thinks he "invented" some new methods to break ECDLP, who cares that they are actually slower than what we already know?!
Someone who would attack ECDLP in a decent matter would use the correct notation of things, at least.
Now, I never said RetiredCoder is the creator, I just said the keys were probably solved in another way, or were already known to him, or they were solved in a much longer timespan than what he brags about, or with a lot higher costs and resources. Because some things definitely do not add up, logically.
I understand, but the truth is that Kang-1 is complex for me to grasp; I'm not sure how efficient it is. However, it is strange that someone with money would waste time solving the obvious. I say obvious because we all know that with a lot of money, you gain the necessary power to solve it. There’s nothing surprising about that. So if Elon Musk wakes up tomorrow with the whim to solve 135 and 140, he will. The real magic lies in finding a cheap algorithm capable of solving it.
Therefore, I can understand the people who criticize him because he didn’t do anything new. He took it because he could. So far, he has only demonstrated that he has money.
