Noone wants the money? 0.1 BTC still there...

in steem •  8 years ago  (edited)

Yesterday I offered a treasure hunt. The money is still there.

So again: In this picture of mine is the private key to this address: https://blockchain.info/address/1A9oCu1bnAtbHfdqeYvko1aQQo3Voud75N

Its no joke and its not that hard. You just google a little, have fun and are 70 bucks richer.

Thank you for the challenge! I was stumped for a bit while also sleep deprived, but it was worth it and very fun :D

please tell us, and where J1xgq9mrAeJmztukGcA6BtG5oZyKvPm1
xqUaiiYwAiC6envupS to put the keys?

The funds are gone now. Of course only one can get them.
The private key can be used in several ways. You can for example install a bitcoin client and import it there or use an online service like blockchain.info or also a mobile wallet where you can redeem it.

Thanks you

I gave it a try and can't find it. I tried by scanning the image like qr code, but it did not work. I imported into photoshop to get a closer view to scan, and slowly scanned entire face, and nothing. I then inverted the colors, rotated it and etc... not luck. :)

I used this tool:
http://www.motobit.com/util/base64-decoder-encoder.asp

Download the image, make sure encode is selected, choose the .png file you downloaded, then convert the source data. Then the private key is at the bottom.

Then used:
https://www.omniwallet.org

To import the private key and be able to send
