Hello seekers!
There is wonderful news for you! You hold not one but two more clues to the hunt! But... There's also some less pleasant news; the honey along the way is literally being devoured by seekers and is becoming scarce.
New Hints
17 hours ago, shortly after the first clue was published, searcher @lefevre showed that he understood the game. His sleuthing helps you get two more hints right away, as he successfully sent two valid codes to @hidden-block:
Hint #2
The size of a resident is very important. It tells you if the initial letter of the resident is big or small.
Example: gabi is small = gabi must be written with small g and not with capital G.
Gabi is big = Gabi must be written with capital G not small g.
Hint #3
Brothers always have the same first name, one is small and one is big.
Example: If Tim has a brother, he would be named tim. If Tim had a sister, she could have any name, but she would always be lowercase because Tim is tall. This rule only applies within the neighborhood.
Who knows? Maybe it is this information that the searchers need to reach the first checkpoint. Because: as it seems, nobody has reached this one yet.
Or maybe the person who has reached it didn't want to share his information with you and did without an additional hint. We will possibly find out at some point.
Anyways thanks to @lefevre for submitting 2 correct codes.
The following codes are therefore no longer redeemable:
XXOIFSAJFNXBWZQIKAXX
XXLSAGGVBBCSAZWZUSXX
XXIWQOASSAFNQUSKAQXX
Two more honeypots found.
The searchers could possibly have succumbed to sugar shock by now, which would also explain why they haven't reached the first milestone yet.
Because, the honey, which was hidden here and there in this puzzle, becomes increasingly rare.
@bil.prague finds @hidden-honey
Probably already before the announcement of the last report the searcher @bil.prag found another HoneyPot. At least his comment suggests this:
He was able to extract the following message from the @hidden-archive (Screenshot from word - otherwise to much information):
And thus was able to finally secure his small portion of honey. But who gets the idea that others could be interested in the honey as well ;)
& @lefevre finds @easter-egg
Also our hint minister did not remain empty. He found the honeypot that was hidden in the following picture of the explanation post:
By all appearances, no big deal:
The honey was taken directly to safety and I hope our finder is happy about it.
In this sense I congrats the searchers @bil.prague and @lefevre for one Honeypot each. Finally, let me repeat: Honey is running out.
The following honeypots are found:
@hidden-honey
@easter-egg
@brave-hearted
This was the second report after the start of the Cryptohunt.
Other Reports:
The Cryptohunt is a puzzle on the Hive-Blockchain. Searchers have to solve this puzzle to find a lost private key to the hive account @hidden-block. There are 800 hives on this account. Quasi right in front of your eyes.
