Is anyone get bitcoins by this tool? How long did it take? about bitcrack HOT 15 OPEN

author was donated at least twice with 0.1 bitcoins from bounty addresses.
So "yes, someone had success"

This app doesn't report finds to server (I hope :D ) so no charts are possible.

But it is very easy to calculate required time. For puzzle 57 and one gtx1080ti (with speed 440MK) you need at MOST 5.4 years. But you probably will find key somewhere in middle, ie in 2-3 years. Or maybe get extremely lucky and find something in week-month.

@ogronome what is puzzle 57 ? Do you have any reference materials ? And can you show me that how did you calculate the result ‘one gtx1080ti (with speed 440MK) you need at MOST 5.4 years’.Thank you!

@ogronome What do you mean with "donated" ??

Do you mean, that he cracked 2 times private keys of 2 addresses?

@ogronome

The guy who found the recent addresses is unknown. I am following the bitcoin forum link that correllates to finding the puzzle keys. We dont know if he has 100 gpus or if hes some binary patternizing program. But somebody is finding those keys and they are keeping quiet about their methods.

Well, but even if you find a private key of an address which has volume, every transaction is trackable and at the end, isn't it a crime??

Or is there any way that they can't track the transaction?

from bitcrack.

The puzzle transactions were made to be cracked. It's not a crime to sweep them.

Taking coins that don't belong to you definitely is a crime.

from bitcrack.

Is sweeping the puzzle transactions not meaning that taking coins which dont belong to us?

from bitcrack.

The coins in the puzzle transactions are meant to be taken. It was a challenge somebody created.

Taking someone's coins without their consent is definitely theft.

@voyagerlife its a very vague yet broad subject and matter, yes technically it is theft and probably illegal. But at the same time, say someone loses a item in real life, they never find it again, you come along and find it, it has no contact information on it and you choose to keep it. Is that theft? I would say no, but with bitcoins you will never really know if a address is lost by someone or if they are holding on to coins. So its very a complicated situation. Thats why you need to be careful, im not condoning claiming someone elses bitcoins but exchanges nowadays use the (KYC) know your customer identification so that they can track you pretty much. if an address all of sudden loses 10,000 bitcoins, they can track that withdrawal of 10,000 btc from that address into your address and know its associated with you through KYC identification.

@natedawg469 It has been a while but thanks for your comment. ;)
I think no one will use an exchange wallet after finding a private key of a wallet with volume.
I'm personally not aiming to crack an active wallet, just searching dormant ones.
The one who cracks a key has to be careful with an anonymous wallet too. At the end the coins will end up in an exchange wallet and will be trackable. A solution may be a btc blender or offline transaction which I never tried. And of course an onion vpn.

Or better still use a dark wallet, it eliminates tracing to the bearest by mixing coins from your wallet before sending to the coinmixers
