Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it
You actually don't need to know any pvk Yourself but just for introduce You a specific method that You can understand or try at least, for a test purpose I needed to write everything like "we need" initial pvk to demonstrate but the cracking reality is simple : string from step6 + target address, no more details and I'll demonstrate how fast I am.
So I sat here the last 10 minutes to create my own script to do what you are doing.I was successful.
Knowing the range speeds up the script, in that you can eliminate certain numbers, but the range is not needed.
Does that mean I was first
?Then go for it Sir:

range 9000000000000000000000000000:ffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
You can be first lol, I mean, as far as I know you are. But being first at something like this, I dunno. I mean it's cool and all, just doesn't help us out with these challenges or any real life scenario.
Range was not needed.

Yes, I do confirm it's valid and I haven't told You pvk of it
Well I only wanted to present a bit what I can actually, soon it will be more mark my words.
