I think the fastest way to generate public keys with CPU is to use ice library

So you have point P and in 2 seconds I get 3.5 million of next points

That's a terrible speed to get points of sequential keys, on a CPU. A good implementation can reach at least 20 million pubKeys / second, on a single thread, on a modest CPU.

thx for the feedback , yes i used this in the past but i upgraded my gpu recently and now im using some version of vanity search and im doing about 500mk/keys ... this cpu tool i made is for slower/older laptops .. its not that bad imo since its my first code .. good luck everyone finding puzzle 67

its only for to show and learn how the process is done using one thread.
feel free to optimize but its impossible to gain speed with python.
using opencl makes no difference.
that is why to use C..


here's a simple one i made in python .. does about 35-50k keys/s deppending on cpu https://github.com/dibzzy/Easy-Bitcoin-puzzle-key-scanner

Other than chit-chat nothing in this Post since long time.
I would like to see some new , finding any ?

You wanted something new, I guess, buddy. Smiley

1BY8GQbnueykaHFzbhAFTmJwzn1k63uhSB
Hex: 6D56D89328480D4AA

1BY8GQbnueyjTRBwVf4aTYocU2TmFzuhMH
Hex: 59CECCF4F9369CB79

Is that enough for now? Smiley (Just kidding.)

Excuse me, let me add these too.

1BY8GQbnueUAXpFh7rEp1QfWRQXdbPBgXQ
Hex: 6CD053767784C37F6

1BY8GQbnueUMG1vCafLpYrP8dqevBV29DZ
Hex: 67ACAA2072F0B8323

between what range do u think 1BY8GQbnueYofwSuFAT3USAhGjPrkxDdW9 is ?? there's 22,518,202,521,211,046,193 combinations between your two 1BY8GQbnuey .. and what makes u think theres any math behind it ?

anyone tested this in a isolated environment ? see if it sends something to the internet or check the .exe with resmon for malicious code ??
sry but i dont trust it if its not open source .. why would i trust the OP that he doesnt have a backdoor that gives him the key also when someone finds it with his tool Huh

Looking for more information about puzzle 66 transaction issue and how to prevent such situation. What does it mean for us, which puzzles are still secure from such outcome?
For how long a transaction can be blocked by the processing party?


I guess it's still mostly speculation of what exactly has happened to puzzle 66.
But in short, let's assume you got really really lucky, and manage to find the private key of puzzle 67, convert the hex private key to wif, login via Electron and start a spending transaction.
As soon as there is a confirmation on the blockchain, the corresponding public key of said wallet is exposed to the public and it's not really hard to write a bot which checks the latest transaction history from any wallet.
That means, if some bot manages to get the public key in time, bruteforcing the private key via bsgs or kangaroo algorithm is not very hard and on any modern gpu would not take longer than a couple of seconds to minutes.
So any stealer can then replace your transaction with higher sats which means the blockchain will prioritize those transactions and you receive nothing.

So to answer your question of "For how long a transaction can be blocked by the processing party":
Just imagine 100 bots attempting to replace the transaction with a slightly higher fee. The will continue so unless no money is to be made. Remember, only the transaction with the highest fee will be processed.

To answer your question of which puzzles are "safe": Any puzzle with high enough entropy which cannot be solved via bsgs/pollard rho/pollard kangaroo within 10 minutes is a safe bet.
However, keep in mind that each time a puzzle is solved, the next one essentially doubles in difficulty, that's why it currently makes little sense to attempt to solve puzzle 68, 69, 70, etc. or 160 via kangaroo.
Stick with either puzzle 67 (normal bruteforcing) or puzzle 135 (kangaroo, not BSGS because BSGS is useless here).

What to really do if you manage to solve low-entropy puzzles
Again, highly speculative but as far as timing goes right - each block is mined approx. every 10 minutes. So if you get your timing right, you should be able to do the spending transaction and the next block is mined within the next seconds which should in theory increase your odds of claiming the reward.
Apart from that, I would likely try to get my timing right and combine it with Mara's slipstream, which I personally have never used, but will when I manage to find some private keys.

In any case, document anything carefully with evidence that YOU found the private key of said wallet which could be viewed at later on if anything goes wrong.

Best regards

so this thing is bad cause now i have to worry about 2 things ... to be the first to find the key and also hope that the transaction goes trough
...if i find it , whats the chance a bot will steal it from me ? i kinda need to know if its worth it :\

also btw hi guys , im new . just started this year to use my gpu to hunt for keys and been trough almost 1 quadrillion so far . no luck tho ..
closest match i found is 1BY8GQbnuEzh8EWgMVthkqWzYXRMKvUTF5  : 63D03AA35D4BEC7D7

good luck to everyone and happy hunting , dont give up , and lets hope no one will steal it from the lucky one .. fingers crossed 🤞

new tool for cracking the puzzle 67

hey guys im new , i created this little script about a year ago, i've been using it on and off to search trough puzzle 66 keys range but with no luck . now i use it for 67 and i decided today to share it with you

its an easy CPU script that scans trough a range of private keys in (DEC) format. Its good for slower machines and i use it in the background while doing other stuff on pc.
my ryzen 5 5600x can scan trough about 40-50.000 keys / s

to use it you just need to:
- edit the desired wallet you are looking for
- edit the range trough which the script should look [in decimals]

for example for puzzle 67 the range is hex= 40000000000000000:7ffffffffffffffff
that in decimals is 73786976294838206464:147573952589676412927

this script scans trough decimals you select and when it finds the corresponding wallet , it saves the info to a txt file

its easy to use and its my first tool , i've been known about btc since 2018 i was only 11 years old and my parents never touched crypto

if you like it please consider supporting me and hope i can create better tools soon

here's a link https://github.com/dibzzy/Easy-Bitcoin-puzzle-key-scanner

thank you all and hope you find this helpfull , its good for slower machines and i use it in the background while doing other stuff on pc, my ryzen 5 5600x can scan trough about 40-50.000 keys / s
