same Y coordinate from two point, but still don't know how to calculate Lam 37718080363155996902926221483475020450927657555482586988616620542887997980018
Another explanation: It's a special point, if you apply endomorphism for it, you will get previous point (Point - G). It's funny to have two points next to each other with same Y, isn't it? And since you know the distance between these two points, you can calculate the private key easily. Congrats to the winner!
I'm trying to get the privkey with this information, but I think I'm missing something
Thanks for all the learning
Greetings.

Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it
If you see mempool.space didn't see your mined TX before it was mined.
Never mind, I don't know what is happening with the mempool.space page because
My script works with that API (mempool.space), my script actually was trigger by your Transaction to start to work. (I checked it after post that message).
Well, I successfully beat any bots that were still in the game.
However, I will admit my first plan did not go as planned because I messed a few things up. But that's ok, I learned from it.
My successful withdrawal, was more of a hail mary versus my thought out, crafted, plan.
I am curious if any bots did get the signal and start working on finding the key and changing the transaction.
I will run another test from learning a few things, and after that test (not 66 bit), I hope to run another one here. Maybe even a lower bit one. We shall see.
Thanks for all of those who built bots and was in the game. I appreciate you.
Hello there
That was a nice test. It confirmed fast and my bot was confused It took the pubkey of 1BoTWARSmLQSouDixHvKpLv6J5LgJYtrCy instead the right one.
Thanks for the opportunity WanderingPhilospher

Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it
Then I just got the fork coins (only BCH, BSV, eCash, BTG, BCD and CDY)
Good to know that even after 12 minutes the fork coins were intact. So probably the situation is not that bad as we are anticipating
During that time the puzzles had like 0.0064 bitcoin it and on top of that BTC was very low. Why would it create a world wide bot race and why would someone waste hundreds or thousands of dollars in fees to withdraw it? It only became an issue once the creator increased the puzzle prize and since then, no lower end puzzle have been solved.
I suggest to take whatever time/scripts/motivation you have and try to solve puzzle #80 on wards instead where you will be guaranteed the prize. Or, ask someone with knowledge about timings which is the lowest feasible puzzle to be solved that will leave enough time to withdraw without a bot snatchingup. I don't know this answer, could be even puzzle #70?
If someone can answer that, that would be great.
Hello again
Puzzle #64 was solved on 09/09/2022. It's prize was 0.64 BTC and that day BTC price was US$21.268, so the prize in BTC was like US$13.611
Any puzzle below #80 or #90, I think, can be snatching up by a bot.

Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it
How was the Funds from Puzzle 64 transferred. There mist been a tug of war between the bots fighting each other during that time also. So how was it managed? Does someone know the story of that time. Same must have been for the Forks coin transfer of that puzzle as well. Another Tx another bot war ?
Hello there
I don't remember if there was a bot war for BTC, but I got the privkey like 12 minutes after the pubkey was exposed (but only with CPU, I don't have GPU )
Then I just got the fork coins (only BCH, BSV, eCash, BTG, BCD and CDY)
