I'll try to put this as clear as possible for the people reading here who don’t want to be misled. Who don’t want to get confused and, potentially, if they somehow manage to solve Puzzle 71, don’t want all their efforts, resources, or luck to go completely to waste.
There are two ways to take the funds from one of the puzzles: One is to find the private key of the address and transfer the funds to another (your own) address. Finding the key is done through different forms of brute-forcing. The second way is to find the private key through reverse engineering from the public key. But in order to use the second method, someone must have already brute-forced the key and made a public transaction so that the public key becomes known. Different strategies. Personally, I find the second one much dirtier. In the first method, you're beating the game. In the second, you're screwing over a person.
Regarding the transactions. In the end, there are two ways to transfer the funds: via the public mempool and via the private mempool (MARA Slipstream). There have been many arguments about these two methods. Which one is the "right" one. Honestly, I think very few of those arguments have been sincere on either side. I believe that the people who claim that a transaction should go through the public mempool - only a very small portion of them genuinely believe that, and to me, they OBVIOUSLY don’t understand what would actually happen. The other part of people claiming that the public mempool should be used are simply those who also want to take the funds from Puzzle 71, but by using the second method. And if we say that even in MARA Slipstream the funds can be stolen is true, then in the worst case scenario the chances are 50/50. Let’s reduce this to the simplest math: with the public mempool, the chance of the funds being taken is 100 percent. With the private one 50.
Menowa* and Mafioso246 - I completely agree with both of you. And people like SimonNeedsBitcoin and mahmood1356 either have no idea how things actually work, or they’ve simply have a bot and choose to play dirty with the second method.

Simon was probably scammed in the past, which explains his attitude. But facts are facts. Mahmood, on the other hand, comes across as completely clueless. He clearly doesn’t understand, and he has this habit of forming opinions without having any real knowledge at least that’s what his posts suggest
Their biggest issue is that there’s a 15-year-old thread full of context, and neither of them has read it. They fall into the trap of thinking their ideas are original, when in reality, they’re just rediscovering things that have been discussed for years.Why do you think that a history of posting and threads over many years can make your opinions correct or that other users should accept your words? In order for everyone to clearly see which one is correct,
I would like to ask you and the rest of my friends if you or anyone else can tell us the private key to this address?

Certainly neither you nor any other 15-year-old user can do this in a few seconds. So stop your nonsense and don't be complacent about your perennial stalk, and I say that in these few years you have only wasted your time and if you had gone to another job instead of talking nonsense, it would have been more beneficial for you.
