Hello everyone,
I’m just an ordinary person who has poured every ounce of energy and savings into cracking Bitcoin Puzzle #71 for months.
This puzzle is unimaginably hard, with a private key range of 2^60 keys—far beyond anything I ever imagined.

I’ve scanned over 2^60 private keys, coming very close to the target address but still no success.
Every time I get close, it tears my heart apart, as my time, money, and energy drain away, and my life crumbles.

I have no money left, not even for basic living expenses, debts weigh on me like mountains, and I want to give up.
But a tiny flicker of hope inside me keeps me going.
I’m not chasing fortune; I’m just trying to survive, hoping for even the smallest help to breathe and keep fighting.

I sincerely ask you to help me. Even a tiny bit of BTC could give me the strength to live on.
I know it’s a lot to ask, but I’ve reached my breaking point.

This is my Bitcoin address:
bc1pe552kve5y4u4edvhq5egrw82e3zu9z8agtmywyysz9e2ajhtq5zsd5z0xu

Please help me. Give me a chance to survive.
Thank you, and may everyone who reads this be safe and well.
