I still don't fully understand — if a low-bit privkey public key is exposed, how could someone potentially derive the private key from it? Could someone please explain how that's possible?
Brute-forcing using the public key is much cheaper than brute-forcing using an address only.if he didn't use it, he could go back and compile an .exe with o.random. 
This is not how development works. You can't just "compile a binary" after sticking "o.random" somewhere and expecting it to work.Original archived Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it
