Community‑Post Note Template: 0.03 BTC Coinmonks Puzzle Investigation

Hello puzzle‑hunters,

I am investigating the “Securing Wealth in Poetry” seed‑passphrase puzzle (0.03 BTC reward, address 1K4ezpLybootYF23TM4a8Y4NyP7auysnRo).

Current working hypothesis: [briefly note which pattern you are testing — e.g. “first‑letter acrostic across poem stanzas” / “Trithemius‑style progressive‑shift extraction”]

Source‑text version used: [note source/archive link if available; mention whether you confirmed it is the original unedited Securing Wealth in Poetry]

Partial candidate observations: [list partial letter/word leads only; avoid posting complete suspected seed‑phrases publicly]

Checks completed so far: [reference items from our checklist: e.g. “checked first‑ & last‑letter acrostics; tested fixed‑position word picks”]

Open questions: [what you are unsure about — e.g. “uncertain whether cipher applies to poem only or whole article; unclear exact shift‑starting rule for Trithemius‑style decoding”]

Request: Does anyone have verified original‑article archives, or prior documented failed attempts for this puzzle to share?

Note: No full seed‑phrase confirmed yet; all leads remain unvalidated.
