break the key. keep the ETH.
The qHOST quantum bounty. A wallet nobody has the key to. Its public key is published. Whoever derives the private key takes everything in it.
0x4811a2cBbf6EF7bC42A9B7BCd6Ee7dd4887f0715ETH sent here cannot be taken back, by you or by us.
ETH sitting at one address, on Ethereum and on Robinhood Chain. Its public key is published below. Its private key does not exist anywhere: nobody ever generated one.
Derive the private key from the public key and send the ETH wherever you want. No form, no permission, no claim process. If you can sign, it is yours.
The public key was not made from a private key. Its x coordinate is the hash of a sentence. Finding the key behind it is the exact problem a quantum computer is supposed to solve.
Anyone can send ETH to the address. It only ever goes in. The day it comes out, every elliptic-curve wallet has a problem.
verify it yourself.
Hash the sentence with the counter using keccak-256 and read the result as an x coordinate on secp256k1. Take the point with even y. Hash that public key and keep the last 20 bytes: you get the address above. Nothing else went in.
The bounty wallet is separate from the canary the bunker contract watches. A move would be a serious signal about elliptic-curve keys, not proof of who built what. Read the limits →
