I have a modest rtx 2060S + GTX1060ti — solution in about 2-5 minutes. For the sake of decency, you could at least put 1 dollar there. Sad

All that effort for nothing (: now he’ll show up with that brilliant brain and groundbreaking ideas and say:

“See? It gets found in 2 to 5 minutes, and during that time I can just pay a high fee and make a regular transfer.”

LMAO anyway, I had a lot of fun today.

Besides the analysis of the private key from the public key, I'd like to ask: ~~was~~is the public key given directly to you? How ~~did~~do you know the winner ~~was~~is transferring and broadcasting the ~~funds~~fund? ~~Did~~Do you get the public key immediately after the ~~winners~~winner broadcast the ~~funds~~transation? Does this take time?

Also, once you have the private key, if you manually enter it and then transfer the funds using a higher fee, wouldn't that take a long time? Even if you use a bot, you'll need to construct a long transaction string, right? All of these take time.

Are those who claim theft can be done in seconds really that confident?
