Solution
Mnemonic (correct order):
since desk thrive carbon zone prison leaf depart hobby practice ivory luggage
Derivation: BIP44, m/44'/0'/0'/0/0
Challenge: 12 BIP39 words were distributed to 12 employees. First 2 words (Alice: since, Bob: desk) were known in order, remaining 10 words were scrambled. Task was to find correct permutation.
Technical Notes
- Address type: P2PKH (legacy, starts with
1) - Bruteforce space: 10! = 3,628,800 permutations
- Optimization: BIP39 4-bit checksum validation (1/16 pass rate)
- This is a CTF challenge, not a traditional bounty
Questions
- Should CTF challenges be a separate collection (e.g.,
ctf/) or mixed with other puzzles? - Should we store the mnemonic words? (similar to how b1000 stores private keys for solved puzzles)
