I set up an Ethereum Address with 0.11 ETH in it and I want everyone to fight for the money! Anyone can access any cryptocurrency wallet as long as they have the private key, so I created 33 questions (jokes, trivia, riddles) that create a 64-character Ethereum wallet private key. Once you have the private key you then have access to the funds, of which you should transfer to another address immediately, or someone else will get there first.
Here is the ETH Public Address: https://etherscan.io/address/0x2eb453d76D7441E562422B0b8798D5aD16e9337f
Here is the link to my website so you can unlock the 33 questions: https://chrisbell.com/games/treasure-hunt.php
- Unlock the Ethereum private key to will all of the money in the account.
- All of the letters are lowercase, only letters and numbers, each question can have up to 4 characters per answer and the entire private key is 64 characters.
- Find the key, and use it as the “priate key” in the New Wallet section of MyEtherWallet.com. This unlocks a wallet and you need to quickly transfer the ETH coins to any of your other addresses. You win the current balance.
- The cost to play is .01 ETH. Others will also pay .01 ETH to play and the winner is the first one to the coins with the private key.
- I will not collect any of your information and I will not be able contact you by collecting your Ethereum coins, but they unlock the questions you need to create the private key.
- Check the public addess regularly to see how many coins are there, the tougher the questions the more it will turn out to be.
- I start each game with .10 ETH as the current balance. I don't have to sign over access, once someone figures out the private key they can take the funds. I will rake 10% of "new" funds every 24 hours to the same address that initially funded the account with .10 ETH.
I thought of this game and want to grow it into many more, however I also want to test it first too. You don't have to sign up on my website, or login, you just need an Ethereum Wallet and MetaMask account to pay the initial fee.
How do you know if someone already won the game? The account will be empty, DUH!
I'm hoping this will help educate people about cryptocurrency, wallets, blockchain and private/public keys!
