Based on the previous article, where we took the polynomial 128 bitsand with the actual increase in the number of signatures, we will bring the value of the polynomial to 249 bits.
All we need is to solve the problem of hidden numbers.
In this article, we will analyze five independent examples of cryptanalysis of the Bitcoin blockchain. All examples will be uploaded to the GitHub repository .

"ATTACKSAFE SOFTWARE" includes all popular attacks on Bitcoin.
Let’s run a list of all attacks:
!./attacksafe -list
Let’s choose -tool: lattice_attack
To get a specific HEXvalue R,S,Zfor the signature ECDSA, we previously added data RawTX through the utility echoto a text document and saved it as a file RawTX.txt
Launch -tool lattice_attack using software “ATTACKSAFE SOFTWARE”
Thanks to the value on the secp256k1 curve from Hal Finney, LAMBDA and BETA revealed the same initial bits to us. The value POLYNONCEin the format HEXallows us to fully solve the problem of hidden numbers, get a private key and restore a Bitcoin Wallet.
Let’s check the HEX of the private key:
Install the modulebitcoin
!pip3 install bitcoin
Let’s run the code:
from bitcoin import *
with open("PrivateKey.txt","r") as f:
content = f.readlines()
content = [x.strip() for x in content]
f.close()
outfile = open("PrivateKeyAddr.txt","w")
for x in content:
outfile.write(x+":"+pubtoaddr(encode_pubkey(privtopub(x), "bin_compressed"))+"\n")
outfile.close()
with open("HEX.txt") as myfile:
listfile="\n".join(f'{line.rstrip()[:+298]}' for line in myfile)
f = open("RawTX.txt", 'w')

With the development of cryptocurrency technologies and the increasing popularity of Bitcoin, various software such as Flash Bitcoin Software and Fake BTC Software have appeared in the market . These programs can lead to disastrous consequences on the Bitcoin ecosystem . In this article, we will look at what these softwares are, how they work and what impact they have on the Bitcoin cryptocurrency using…
In the last article: “Blockchain Attack Vectors & Vulnerabilities to Smart Contracts” we reviewed all known attacks on the blockchain, in this article we will talk about crypto threats again and we will talk about identifying vulnerabilities for Cold wallets, as well as for Hot wallets.

ChatGPT has become an integral tool that most people use daily to automate various tasks. If you have used ChatGPT for any length of time, you would have realized that it can provide wrong answers and has limited to zero context on some niche topics. This brings up the question of how we can tap into chatGPT…
