Your might face an issue if you're wanting a public key instead of an address though as they're only given when funds are spent from them and not when funds are received as those are sent to addresses
On very old addresses, the public key can be seen even without outgoing transactions.

Re: overview of key cracking tools for 32BTC puzzle
It will be interesting to see/read about the wif500 and if they solve it.
I think it's just a clever scam. The author claims that the photo is from a burnt diary in 2017, but the Ethereum address in the same photo was used in 2021, and just one day. Why write this address and key in a diary if there was no balance on it at the time? And even more so to use it after so many years..
Sorry, just curious: do others just trust you and provide their phrases/passwords? Or do you provide paid services?
I mostly help others run the software themselves, and help them to construct appropriate tokenlists or seedlists (using surrogate strings such as "Word1" instead of their actual words) as that is often the most difficult part if you have never done it before, and the syntax can be quite confusing to get right, especially with complex passwords or passphrases. I do not offer paid services per se, but I have ran the software on behalf of other people before. If you are looking for a paid service, then this site often gets good reviews - https://www.walletrecoveryservices.com/ - although I have never used them myself and therefore cannot personally vouch for them.
I'd encourage you to try do it yourself first, though. As PawGo says, it is often feasible on your own computer. If you run in to problems, post here and we will try to help.
The question was asked with a slightly different purpose: I was wondering that now in every wallet there are several warnings for users - not to transfer their seed to other people, but apparently people pass by and still give their value to someone else. People can't be fixed)
Nobody "created" this address, the string was found according to certain rules - base58 with the correct checksum. If it meets the requirements, then the address can also exist in the blockchain. You can try to create such an address for burning bitcoins yourself - http://gobittest.appspot.com/ProofOfBurn (without private keys, do not submit anything that is of value to you)
This is actually very interesting and you could write a little more about it: what is this superposition linear equation, why exactly 4 transactions are needed, what does this bit level look like and how to find it, etc ...
So this is related to the security of the site and not to bitcoin itself? Create a new topic, with a description of the problem, but without technical details. Most likely, this will attract the attention of developers.
Also dont forget: The Problem we have is, that we don't know if the last bit is even or odd. If you know if the last bit is even or odd, you can crack any public key in no time.
How does this affect? Please explain in more detail..
