Riddle Discovered in Bitcoin Related to the Genesis Block
An anonymous creator has built a wallet using information from Bitcoin's genesis block, mined by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009. The challenge wallet contains 30,000 satoshis and is protected by a multi-signature scheme. The message was detected on August 22 in block 963,629, occupying 255 bytes and recorded via OP_RETURN. The transaction had a size close to 500 bytes and paid a fee of 250 satoshis. The author claims that the wallet was generated with data from the genesis block and low entropy. To solve the riddle, participants can send transactions to the challenge address to receive hints, with levels of information depending on the amount sent. So far, there is no confirmed solution or verification of the creator's identity. The uncertainty lies in whether the data from the genesis block contains the necessary keys or if it is a cryptographic proof. The usefulness of the hint system is also questioned, given that the creator is anonymous and requests upfront payments.
