Every funded
Bitcoin wallet.
Forged with fees.
KEYFORGE uses Solana trading fees to rent a lot of hashpower. That compute hunts the Bitcoin puzzles and, in parallel, checks every generated private key against a 100M+ bloom filter of funded wallets. Any coins recovered are used as buybacks to fund KEYFORGE further.
That idea is four years old. Cheap compute is what finally makes it real.
Fees rent the hunt.
Solana trades pay
Every trade on Solana leaves a fee. That fee is the only money Keyforge spends.
Fees rent hashpower
The wallet hires GPUs at market rate. More fees means more cards pointed at Bitcoin keys.
Hunt the puzzles
Those machines walk the Bitcoin puzzle ranges, starting with the five where the maths is on our side.
Check every key
In the same pass, every generated private key is tested against a 100M+ bloom filter of funded wallets.
A hit becomes a buyback
A puzzle collision or a bloom match is a real key. Recovered coins are used as buybacks to fund KEYFORGE further.
The machines, right now.
Waiting for a machine to come online. A card appears here as soon as one reports.
What you are actually looking at.
It takes Solana trading fees and rents hashpower. Those machines hunt the Bitcoin puzzles and, in the same pass, check every generated private key against a 100M+ bloom filter of funded wallets. That is the whole project.
They are used as buybacks to fund KEYFORGE further. Recovered Bitcoin is not a prize pool and not a team payout. It buys more of the project, which buys more compute, which keeps the hunt running.
The puzzle coins were placed as a public race. The creator said so on BitcoinTalk, and the keys are meant to be found. Lost wallets are a separate hunt: if a key matches a funded address in the bloom filter, the spend is on Bitcoin, in public. Either way, recovered funds go back into KEYFORGE buybacks.
A puzzle hunt only checks a handful of targets. The bloom filter holds 100M+ funded Bitcoin addresses, so every key the GPUs generate gets a second test for free. A hit there is a lost wallet, and that recovery also becomes a KEYFORGE buyback.
Because that is where the fees come from. Trades pay for GPUs. GPUs hunt keys. Recovered coins buy KEYFORGE back. The loop is meant to be simple enough to follow without a dashboard.
No. More hashpower raises the odds. It does not set a date. Fees and buybacks are how the fleet grows. A solve is still luck plus electricity.
