    So, has anyone figured out a bulletproof way to spend puzzle 66's inputs, once the key is found, without the internet-of-bots stealing the prize? Other than trying to find a big enough mining pool that will mine your transaction into a block and not expose the transaction to the mempool? Could any mining pool even be trusted to that extent?

    I cant belive that I read this BS again on this forum. Are you out of your mind? Why the hell do you need a mining pool?HuhHuhHuh
    I have read a similar BS from another user in another topic, that is talking about miners.

    You dont need any miners to get the money, when you got the privatekey, you can immediately take control of the bitcoins. Do you really dont know how?



     It's a blast to solve Puzzle 65, 66, 67, 68.  It takes about 60 seconds once we identify the public key from the blockchain.  

    Here i tested my toddler bot script on Puzzle 65 = address -> 18ZMbwUFLMHoZBbfpCjUJQTCMCbktshgpe

    and the time required to import the key into Electrum and start the redirection of transactions (if they exist ).

    The 10 minutes is the average time and this is a pretty stupid circumstance. At this stage, the transaction has
    entered the mempool and remains 'Pending,' waiting for confirmation.

    It only takes a matter of seconds (for such a small range) to obtain the private key from public key, after which
    you (or a thousand of them) can replace the still-unconfirmed transaction in the mempool.  

    In other words, you need a very strong miner to speed up (prioritize) the transaction to go through the mempool in
    one (or less than) minute for puzzle 66, 67, 68, 69.

    Are you replying to me, or just randomly hallucinating? What is the purpose of your writing?

    If (hypothetically) you found the private key for puzzle 66, and simply tried to spend puzzle 66's BTC balance to another wallet that you control, you better hope that that transaction gets mined into the next block
    within a few seconds, or it will be stolen with 100% certainty. This is also the case for the next few puzzles, 67,68,69...

    The only way to do that is by using the MARA Pool Slipstream. The transaction will be mined before the public key enters the mempool.

    It won't actually be seen at all through the mempool.
