UPDATE: Someone already won

Since many of us are stuck at home because of coronavirus, I thought this might be a good time for another puzzle. Please note the purpose of these puzzles is to introduce more people to the power of Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and have some fun at the same time. Up for grabs is a prize of .5 BCH (~$90 at current prices). Below are two sets of clues for the 12-word seed phrase that unlocks the prize. Unlike the previous puzzles, you will need a small amount of BCH to participate since all the clues are hidden behind paywalls at satoshiwall.cash. The first set of clues are only one cent each (try sending a penny's worth of BTC and see what happens!). The second set are $.25 each. The prize money is sitting at the following address and all money from unlocking the clues will be sent directly to the prize fund found here:

bitcoincash:qrmcjexa2flqlxvk47qwl5x4gjjj3zj22v3pkwzn2u

Like before, here's a link to the full list of 2,048 BIP39 words, 12 of which are the ones you're looking for. If you don't know what a 12 word seed phrase is, refer to this post to get a basic understanding. (Unfortunately, the images in that post are now old since they recently updated the Bitcoin.com wallet, but the concept is still the same.)

Enjoy!

There seems to be a problem with the Bitcoin.com wallet or the satoshiwall. I've paid 2 times for the 1a clue and it's still locked, just the page reloaded.

I had that happen when testing too. Then I hit refresh on Satoshi wall and the color unlocked. Hope that works.

question: if you pay for ALL 24 clues, does that unlock the 0.5 BCH? doesn't seem to make sense, but I'm not sure on the rules; or how the clues work..

anyway, I've actually been putting some thought into how to support the wfh crowd myself .. most likely will work on some sort of virtual gathering space (with a BCH theme 😜).. there's really no telling how long this "social distancing" will last, figure it might be worth the time

If you unlock all 24 clues, all you do is unlock the clues to each of the words. You'll still have to figure out what the words are to gain access to the .5 BCH
