Here is how to search for the Bitcoin Treasure:
Step One
Acquire a Minnaar or Fractional Minnaars to gather all 24 words.
Step Two
Click on Start Mining to start generating bitcoin addresses and private keys using different combinations of the words. The private key is generated from the passphrase using the SHA256 algorithm. Here’s how to use the Minnaar Miner:
- Click on Start Mining
- Enter the 24 words in the boxes provided (lower case, no spaces, no repeated words)
- Check the “Compressed address?” box
- Click on “Mine a Treasure”
- A bitcoin address and a private address will be displayed. Check to see if the bitcoin address matches “1LJUoadJQnEPf6G8u76KFesWJs1MA4S1hA“.
- If you get a match, you have solved the combination! When you get a match, save/write down the combination and use a bitcoin wallet like Green Address to “Sweep Private Key” and scan the QR code for the private key.
- This will transfer the bitcoin to your wallet.
- If you don’t get a match, try the same combination and uncheck the “Compressed address?” box then click “Mine a Treasure” again. If you get a match, see the instructions above to claim the Minnaar Treasure.
- If neither of these combinations work, click “shuffle” to try another word combination! Good luck and happy hunting!
