    Guys, I'm bored today again, so let's have some fun: a mini-puzzle for puzzle #125.
    The key fell and shattered into 12 pieces:

    804
    E09
    77
    1C5
    225
    AC
    960
    33B
    7F0
    E4
    6BB
    48

    The order of the pieces is unknown, assemble the key back together!

    There is about 500$ in BCH there, so hurry up!
    And thanks to creator of original puzzles (Satoshi??) for a lot of fun!

    PS. No BS here please, I will remove it.
    PPS. For history, previous mini-puzzle is here: https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/5513047
    I've solved #120, #125, #130. How: https://github.com/RetiredC

    Thank you @RetiredCoder for the mini Puzzle.

    Got it through the slowest crappy code.....

    Code:
    import secp256k1 as ice
    target = '1PXAyUB8ZoH3WD8n5zoAthYjN15yN5CVq5'
    dd = ['804', 'E09', '77', '225', 'AC', '960', '33B', '7F0', 'E4', '6BB', '48']

    p = '1C5'

    inc = 0
    for i in permutations(dd):
        pvk = int(p + ''.join(i), 16)
        addr = ice.privatekey_to_address(0, True, pvk)
        if addr == target:
            print(f'== Key is Found ==\n {hex(pvk)}')
            print(f'{ice.btc_pvk_to_wif(pvk)}')

            print(f'{ice.btc_pvk_to_wif(pvk)}')

    Nice, at first glance the difficulty looks like 12! but since we know that the key must start with "1", the difficulty reduces to 11! only.

    Congrats @iceland2k14  Grin Grin I was working at that hours so I missed it.

    @RetiredCoder Thanks for release the key, if you want more competition you should announce the date and hour for this. I expect be ready for the #130 key.

    Regards!

    What an easy puzzle you should have mixed all the letters and numbers. Embarrass yourself and learn how to do a more difficult puzzle. Otherwise, just take the private key and throw it here. The first person to see the post can take this shop to buy bread.

            break

    I’ve been monitoring Retired Coder's latest posts for the past two days. Today, I’m going somewhere, and this happened. Feeling so sad 😢. Anyway, congratulations to the winner!

    If it was so simple, then why you lose?

    I agree that the puzzle was simple, Maybe @AbadomRSZ was also AFK when @RetiredCoder publish it.

    These are mini-puzzles, I want them to be easy so everyone with minimal skills can solve it.
    If you want hard puzzles - you already have #67 and #135  Wink

    So, congrats to the winner, done!
