Prepare - Uncover - Outwit - Find - WIN!
The Steemit Crypto Challenge #1 finished. Our friend @disofdis has a true affinity for technology and solved the first Crypto Challenge. Congratulations! 100 Steem goes to your wallet.
It's time for the Steemit Crypto Challenge #2. So hold on tight and drop
all your being into the next hints.
Can you follow your intuition? The first to reveal a hint will win a prize. The first to solve the whole challenge wins a much higher prize.
Hint Nr.2:
B EHOX LTBEBGZ

Don't be limited to the list above, get creative! Apply what you have already learned. Perhaps from the last Challenge. Think you got in the bag? How hard could it be? Several hints are already in place. Open your eyes! Have a look around. But do not get distracted.
All submissions are due by Wednesday August, 24 @ 6pm (UTC -4)
The First Prize reward is 100% SBD. The more this post makes, the more you will win (Which will be rolled over if no one is able to solve crypto-puzzles).
Additional Prize: 10SBD per new hint uncovered. (This challenge is not impossible, but you'll feel like it is)
P.s.: Teamwork is what Steemit is all about, don't be afraid to work together. I recommend you to use the chat. There is a channel where you can discuss the challenge: steemitcryptochallenge

Happy hunting,

The audiofile is distorted and in reverse. It says:
Hello dear Cryptofriend,
as you can hear i'm outside
Can you tell me where I am right now?
I need to know.
I will send you a picture of my location.
Do you know what this could be, and where?
Thank you my friend, I'm waiting for your response.
And before I forget to tell you, you know in which city I live, just have a look at my introduceyourself post. And I see a building with a lot of satellites on it. It says "studio". I can see some rails, probably trains.

Aminosäuren und Proteine

Tertiärstruktur: Die Tertiärstruktur gibt an (unter Berücksichtigung der Sekundärstruktur) wie sich das Molekül durch weitere intramolekulare Wechselwirkungen im Raum anordnet. So kann sich beispielsweise die α-Helix eines Proteins ineinander verknäulen. Für die Tertiärstruktur eines Polypeptides sind folgende Wechselwirkungen von Bedeutung:
• Disulfidbrücken (zwischen Cystein-Bausteinen)
• ionische Wechselwirkungen
• Wasserstoffbrückenbindungen
• van der Waals-Kräfte

That particular image of a protein is used in some pretty weird German articles.

"An orchid in America sends molecules that are to attract insects to come by and by the way make pollination. The Cosmic Spirit in the orchid has considering that it really wise would be the mosquitoes with integrating the far-reaching evolutionary purpose, retransmission, or pollination. Stupid thing is that mosquitoes are more into people whose blood they tap into. To find people who use various methods mosquitoes thermal imaging sensors and molecular receiver antennas that detect human scent. The orchid now easily produced human odor molecules and the "fukked" mosquitoes come in droves. The purpose of pollination they do so unconsciously, in which they have sought in bloom by man. Obviously the buffaloes was invented not only on human side, but in the plant and animal kingdom also available. "
