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

If you do not understand why every 5th is open. Then you need to learn this topic from scratch.
But in a nutshell, then when we hit the ceiling of 60-64 bits. The creator of the puzzle specially made a small transaction from every fifth address, thereby opening public keys for these addresses for public access. A public key search is a completely different search than an address.

You will not show the found private key, someone else will. And if you find a private key from the address, which are still with balances of up to 115 bits. And you withdraw funds from there, then let's say the address will be available to addresses 64,66,67,68,69 bits within 5-10 minutes, because it is supported by low capacities. The 64th generally breaks through in a second if the public key is known from it!

And in general, in a puzzle, not so much chasing a prize, as more "measured by pussy". Who has more power, or who came up with the best algorithm. Some connect 800 processor cores with a terabyte of RAM per system.

OK, thank you very much! I will start studying from the first page of this topic. but it's not easy...

Why not publish the private key from the address you have opened from this puzzle? We are not talking about other addresses, but about the addresses from the puzzle. What is the point of keeping it a secret if you have already withdrawn all funds from it?
And what's the point of talking about it?
Maybe I don't want to burn my ip on the forum, and for everyone to know that I hacked it?

There is simply no such address in the puzzle from which the funds were withdrawn, but the private key would not be known. Because if someone finds an algorithm for finding the next bit, then in a very fast time this algorithm is used by others and the private key becomes generally known. For this, this puzzle was created, in order to identify the current possibility, both technical and algorithmic, for the possibility of opening a wallet with a certain bin of the private key.


You want to say that, for example, if I have my own successful algorithm for finding a private key, then after some time someone else will also come up with my algorithm, and will also pick up a private key to an already empty address from which I will withdraw money (because I am the first). Right?
And I also don't understand the moment: why in the puzzle the last addresses are hacked with gaps in 4 unsolved:

I just don't understand really all hacked private keys were necessarily posted in public access? for example, if I hacked a private key, it's not a fact that I would have posted it. It feels like the creator of the puzzle is "hacking" his own keys

Hello! Say me please, how are the private keys of the addresses hacked in the puzzle known? I did not find in the topic that someone posted them.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5218972.msg53649852#msg53649852

And who reports these keys? do all hackers share private keys?
 I mean, is it really possible that all those who hacked the keys will necessarily put them in the public access?
