Breaking News!
There are 10 Bitcoins hidden somewhere on the Internet.
You're going to have to locate and decipher several clues to track them down.
As I begin to lose my patience, hints will be posted right here, so watch this space!
There are no strings attached. Good luck!
17:09 GMT - Hint 1: The winner will celebrate an early Christmas.
17:54 GMT - Hint 2: Your path should be getting clearer by now.
18:06 GMT - Hint 3: A private key, you shall not find. Privacy, however, is important to the scavenger.
18:21 GMT - Hint 4: Clearly, you are all a bunch of scavenger newbies.
18:36 GMT - Hint 5: Someone needs to go help the poor Newbie with his question. He's growing impatient.
18:45 GMT - Hint 6: "k" is hot. "wareen" is cold.
19:04 GMT - Hint 7: She's crazy! And she's out of focus! How about helping her find resolution to her problem?
19:10 GMT - Hint 8: If you sink a bittleship, it'll land on the next clue. If you're spending Bitcoins to do this, you've been led astray.
19:23 GMT - Update: Some people have made it to the second clue. I'm not sure if anyone has made it to the third. The sixth clue will lead you directly to the 10 Bitcoins, if you're clever enough!
19:26 GMT - Update 2: The third clue has been found and was generously shown to the public (not here, though). I'll be waiting over on clue five. Keep it up!
19:42 GMT - Update 3: The first clue has been unlocked!
20:14 GMT - Hint 9: /r/bitcoin may have led you here, but /r/bitcoin will not lead you to where you need to be.
20:21 GMT - Update 4: The second clue has been unlocked!
20:26 GMT - Update 5: A little background music to entertain you while you hunt!
20:39 GMT - Update 6: The third clue has been unlocked!
20:50 GMT - Update 7: Someone has found the fifth clue! Those Bitcoins aren't going to last too much longer!
21:27 GMT - Hint 10: 4 hours, 19 minutes in, and Santa is quickly running out of milk and cookies to keep him occupied.
21:34 GMT - The Bitcoins have been found!
So here is the complete solution:
1) There was an image posted to bittit.info.
2) At the bottom of the image was a link to a discussion on the Bitcointalk forums. In the discussion, I hinted that I was looking for a place to gamble privately. Just by coincidence, "k" linked to the site where the clue was hidden.
3) On betwithbtc.com, there was a link to a "Private Casino" that sent you to a hidden page. The page had a hint about reddit in the title.
4) If you searched reddit for that hint, you came across a topic where I left a comment. That comment was a clue to go to Sound Cloud and search for a song called "Grave of the Fire Flies" by SYD.
5) I left a comment on the song: "Flat Money," which referred to a YouTube video about Bitcoin where the spokeswoman said "Flat" instead of "Fiat."
6) I left a comment on the video: "If you go to Arnold Schwarzenegger's email service, then youfoundthecoins." I was referring to mailinator.com. If you entered "youfoundthecoins" as the mailbox, you would have found an email from Bitcoins for Christmas which told you how to claim the coins.
Congratulations to bitfoo for finding the 10 BTC! Well deserved!
