Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it

I'll try to put this as clear as possible for the people reading here who don’t want to be misled. Who don’t want to get confused and, potentially, if they somehow manage to solve Puzzle 71, don’t want all their efforts, resources, or luck to go completely to waste.

There are two ways to take the funds from one of the puzzles: One is to find the private key of the  address and transfer the funds to another (your own) address. Finding the key is done through different forms of brute-forcing. The second way is to find the private key through reverse engineering from the public key. But in order to use the second method, someone must have already brute-forced the key and made a public transaction so that the public key becomes known. Different strategies. Personally, I find the second one much dirtier. In the first method, you're beating the game. In the second, you're screwing over a person.

Regarding the transactions. In the end, there are two ways to transfer the funds: via the public mempool and via the private mempool (MARA Slipstream). There have been many arguments about these two methods. Which one is the "right" one. Honestly, I think very few of those arguments have been sincere on either side. I believe that the people who claim that a transaction should go through the public mempool - only a very small portion of them genuinely believe that, and to me, they OBVIOUSLY don’t understand what would actually happen. The other part of people claiming that the public mempool should be used are simply those who also want to take the funds from Puzzle 71, but by using the second method. And if we say that even in MARA Slipstream the funds can be stolen is true, then in the worst case scenario the chances are 50/50. Let’s reduce this to the simplest math: with the public mempool, the chance of the funds being taken is 100 percent. With the private one  50.

Menowa* and Mafioso246 - I completely agree with both of you. And people like SimonNeedsBitcoin and mahmood1356 either have no idea how things actually work, or they’ve simply have a bot and choose to play dirty with the second method.

Sorry, guys, but unfortunately I have to ask my question for the third time, as Im still curious. SimonNeedsBitcoin steered the conversation in a completely different direction that’s already been discussed multiple times here and whether that path is right or wrong doesn’t concern me. What SimonNeedsBitcoin decided to explain was an answer to a question I never asked. So… once again, I had like to ask my question, and if anyone can answer, I will really appreciate it. I don’t understand what difference the puzzle number makes - whether it’s #61, #71, #82, etc. And specifically, what makes the puzzles that are multiples of 5 special — like #85, #100, #105? Or in the end, since no one is giving an answer, does that just mean this thing has no significance at all?

The public keys of multiple 5 puzzles were intentionally revealed, which opens the way to the possibility of using kangaroo, which allows for a faster solution of the problem, something that is not possible with puzzles 71, 72... that do not end in 5 or 0, which makes them difficult to solve because only conventional (slow) brute force can be applied. However, if for example you solve puzzle 71 and do not use the Mara service, when sending the transaction, you are exposing its public key to the world, which will cause bots to use kangaroo and replace your transaction, taking away your prize, since the difficulty of puzzle 71 lies in the fact that the public key is hidden, but once an attempt is made to spend it and it is included in the mempool, the public key is leaked.

For this reason you should use mara Slipstream for these puzzles, because mara does not broadcast the transaction publicly, which means it does not reveal the public key until the transaction is confirmed (included in a block) and at this point, this is not reversible, so you will have collected the reward without problems.

Thank you for the answer! The explanation was simple, but I just didn't pay attention. I thought there were several puzzles with known public keys, but I hadn’t noticed that it's specifically the ones that are multiples of 5.

For the remaining unsolved lower bitlength puzzles the solver has to use non-public mempool with so far the only easy public service at slipstream.mara.com OR the solver is a complete idiot as was the case with puzzle #69.

Any solver of puzzles #71, #72, ... which are not multiples of 5 have to be mined from non-public mempools. Period!

Solvers of remaining puzzles which are multiples of 5, i.e. #135, #140, ... #160, don't necessarily need non-public mempools and should be fine to broadcast their puzzle withdrawal transaction publicly. Though it doesn't really hurt to do it via slipstream.mara.com, too. I'd consider it safer that way.

It's funny how some dudes here don't seem to understand how RBF works and that basically all mining pools have an economic incentive to have FullRBF enabled by default. Therefore you can't prevent that your transaction gets replaced as long as the replacer follows RBF rules. You can't opt-out RBF successfully anymore. Period!

Anybody who doesn't understand this, shouldn't play with solving #71+, just don't come later and cry you've been robbed by bots. DYOR!

I don't understand. What is the difference between any puzzle and these that are multiples of 5?


 In case you solve any of the puzzles from 71 to 134, you must consider several precautions to avoid being robbed by automated bots.

I understand well how the public mempool works and how transactions function. I've read through the entire thread and I understand the risk of being front-run by bots when transfering funds.

Don't trust online claims, especially in the digital currency space, where scammers are everywhere.

Puzzle 71 has been the subject of three or four months of global effort since the solution of Puzzle 69, but the private key hasn't been cracked. Can you believe your funds could be stolen by a so-called bot within a minute of your transfer? Bitcoin's most important principle is decentralization. Even if you're transferring funds publicly, as long as you use the highest transaction fee, miners around the world will rush to confirm your transaction. This is the essence of Bitcoin's decentralization and security. What's there to worry about? You can claim your winnings in under a minute. If Bitcoin were so easily hackable, it would have collapsed long ago.

Remember, anyone who asks you to submit your transactions to a private mining pool is likely a scammer. Even if the private mining pool is a large company, what about their employees? Anyone who handles your transaction information could try to steal your winnings. Think for yourself.

You keep repeating the same thing, either you're the bot owner waiting in ambush, or SimonNeedsBrain
Nice try Diddy LOL, can you share your bot with us?

This is hilarious! If I knew how to use a bot like this, I'd have already cracked dozens of Bitcoin addresses. I'd probably be on vacation in Hawaii.

Don't you think that asking you to give them your transaction data is essentially like saying, "Hey, give me your private key."?

You guys are so technically proficient, do you think private mining pools are any worse than you?
Wooow
You claim you crack Bitcoin wallets and have lot of money, and enjoying time n money
Here is simple example and test
You should create 71 bit range address
Put their 1 btc
Post address here, and announce your destination address where you will transfer your 1 btc full or partial btc after 3 hours, using ur secure mempool tx, remember no one have ur pvkey,
After play this test you will learn lot of things, when bots will pickup before go to your destination address
If you successfully transfer your fund to your des address , whole forum will learn from you
Come and play And proof your simple tx by mempool
After 12 hours
