Operating System: Windows XP, windows 10 System Hardware Specs: windows machine, enough space to download the blockchain 100x, fast enough Description of Problem: Core files from 1st release Any Related Addresses: Block 2 Any Related Transaction IDs: 9b0fc92260312ce44e74ef369f5c66bbb85848f2eddd5a7a1cde251e54ccfdd5 Screenshot of the problem: doing this post via mobile phone Log Files from the Bitcoin Client: what log files can help?
I need help getting my old bitcoin core files to work. I have been researching and the only guys that have successfully come close are doing it via linux. So here's the problem. Maybe someone has a solution. Bitcoin core files from Windows Vista I don't have windows vista. Last accessed via windows xp and or windows 7 Last year accessed was 2010- 2011 after I was getting help from one of the first Bitcoin devs. Coins weren't showing. I managed to get it working a few days later unbeknownst to him. 2010-2011 was the last time we had communications. I know I have Bitcoin block 2 and the corresponding required signature to prove ownership. I could spend from this UTXO set but Id rather not use anything before block 170. Any help is welcome, even criticism for doing it this way.🙏 Thank you all (in advance) for any guidance and help you might you might be able to provide. I would also like it if we can stay on topic. No weird questions about Satoshi or Hal or Adam(who never responded btw). If you have any of those questions please feel free to start a new post in another section and I will try to respond to them.
I'm willing to help you. Send me a message and I can vet myself.

This wasn't a normal wallet or script that submitted the TX's. This was custom built hardware. This was directly connected to the protocol and bypassed TCP/IP network stack.
if you find anything useful show me some love @ bc1qhrzss9kdjdt420v3l2ye8600x5u7y90kdkngsv
Has any of those 3700 files helped you solve any puzzle (or at least help you make any progress whatsoever), or you simply had way too much free time?
I think this is the most extreme example so far, for trying to find any pattern in something that is, by definition, pattern-less. But hey, congrats for not going the horoscope font size path. I hope at least your research can get you a decent job somewhere (not by its results though, but by your skills).
In back testing I have come within 0.001 % +/-, but we all know how much space that amount still is to cover.

I've spent 3.5 years studying this sequence instead of trying to brute force. I have developed thousands of algorithms and analysis scripts. This morning I successfully and efficiently reversed engineered indexes 1-69 perfectly generating them all without hard coding any keys.. BTC

Hey has the privatekeys.pw site been down all day for you guys too?
Yes it has. Whoever runs the site recently updated some of the user interfaces. Now the page with the unsolved keys has tabs 'solved', 'unsolved' and 'all'. I assume that they might be doing some other updates. But then again those updates could have posed some vulnerabilities.
