# Bitcoin Puzzle Solver Project
## What is this project about?
https://privatekeys.pw/puzzles/bitcoin-puzzle-tx
> In 2015, in order to show the hugeness of the private key space (or maybe just for fun), someone created a "puzzle"
> where he chose keys in a certain smaller space and sent increasing amounts to each of those keys like this [...]
Several puzzles remain unsolved, amounting to a total of 956.5 BTC!
The goal of this project is to tackle these puzzles. Currently, it only works on CPU and Nvidia GPUs specifically via CUDA.
