Why does everyone keep trying to solve it?

I think this is a game that benefits others, not the solvers!! When more inventory was added to these puzzles, each Bitcoin was worth about $27,000. Have any of you thought about why the finder of puzzle 69 lost inventory?


Let me remind you of a few principles: Bitcoin can only consider a transaction as completed after receiving 6 confirmations in the next blocks in the blockchain network chain, and before 6 confirmations, that asset is not in your possession, and the block containing the transaction confirmed by miners may be completely removed from the blockchain chain before reaching 6 confirmations, which are called orphan blocks.

Although using a private mining pool instead of a public one can prevent double spending, but who can guarantee that the private mining pool will not embezzle the money? This is not difficult at all technically.
