Awesome work. I think Russ is correct. The next step has to do with The Game Of Life and perhaps the concept of Gliders. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glider_(Conway%27s_Life) Notice how every few frames a glider is produced here: http://whit3r4bbi7.com/SatoshiNakamotoGoodbyeFriend/c524c32c714f1ffbbdcffd76bb3dbd7e3abe012a11bb81f2c4936018a6fd2490.gif

I'm going to be thinking this through tonight, I'll post here if I come up with something.

The Game of Life Hypothesis

Going to take another angle here so bare with me. In the posts before the picture was released there were other clues, including references to Conways Game of Life. Especially in a series of frames where you can see clear examples of at least two different kinds of gliders. One going left/down, the other going right down...there may be a third as well.

In any case if you stretch the game of life into this new picture what formations do we have that are represented by the phoenix, dove, vines, knight, queen, and beacon.

You get something like this:

The Phoenix - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sADzf5yh3U and http://www.conwaylife.com/wiki/Phoenix_1

The (Turtle) Dove - http://www.radicaleye.com/lifepage/picgloss/picgloss.html and http://www.conwaylife.com/wiki/Cigar, or http://www.conwaylife.com/wiki/Turtle

The Vines no known GofL object? (Possibly a representation of tying everything but the beacon together, since the vines dont touch the beacon but everything else.)

The Knight http://www.conwaylife.com/wiki/Types_of_spaceships#Knightship

The Queen - http://www.conwaylife.com/wiki/Queen_bee_shuttle

The Beacon - http://www.conwaylife.com/wiki/Beacon

So lets recap here. We have five of the six elements in the picture represented also in Conways Game of Life, which was alluded to before. Now this could be due to coincidence, perhaps I am really stretching here.

But what if our queen bee coin artist created a simulation in the Game of Life based upon the arrangement of these five elements. What if she somehow created a private key from that physical arrangement. Is that even possible? this guy probably knows: http://robmyers.org/

Hes one of the ones who Made this possible and has worked on representing bitcoin transactions as game of life sequences http://robmyers.org/blockchain-aesthetics/

So if it is the case that a private key was created from the organization of these five elements in the game of life, the process would have to be reverse engineered. How? who the fuck knows, maybe the flames offer some direction on this.

In any case, Im tempted to map out the above simulation and report back. Should be fun/insane.
