Advanced cryptographers, brute-forcers, and curve researchers — this challenge is for you.

🏁 Target address (compressed):

💰 Reward:

📩 How to claim:
Send the FULL WORKING PRIVATE KEY via forum PM.
No partial results, no PoC, no demos. First valid submission gets the full reward.

🔎 About the challenge:
This is a real cryptographic test, not a lottery.
You are expected to leverage advanced understanding of:

• secp256k1 internals
• ECDSA weaknesses (if any)
• distance-guided scalar search
• modular arithmetic, point operations
• bitwise descent, Pollard’s Rho, Kangaroo, etc.

Whether you're scanning the curve randomly, exploring differential proximity, or reverse-engineering signature behaviors — all methods are welcome.

🧠 Community Insight:
Since this bounty was posted, many researchers have joined privately:

• Some have reported ultra-low real distances between candidate keys and the target pubkey.
• Others run full CPU/GPU farms with bit-based scoring filters.
• Several teams analyze weak nonces and point collisions.

This is growing into a serious decentralized cryptographic experiment.

If you’ve never tried elliptic curve scalar descent, now is the time.

⚠️ Rules Reminder:

🎯 Prove it’s possible. Crack the curve. Win $200,000.
Let the code speak. Good luck to all serious challengers.
