BTC Puzzle Solver (A heuristic solution)

Hey everyone! 👋

I've developed a statistical Bitcoin puzzle solver that uses progressive refinement and Hamming distance analysis instead of brute force.

🎯 What's Different?

This isn't your typical random search or brute force. The solver uses:
- Progressive granularity (10% → 5% → 1% → 0.1% → 0.01%)
- Statistical evaluation of key ranges using multiple metrics
- Smart sampling that avoids redundant work
- Historical intelligence from previously solved puzzles

 ✨ Features
- Google Colab ready with checkpoint/resume
- Multiprocessing support
- Memory efficient (tracks millions of keys)
- Detailed progress tracking and statistics
