Puzzle Solved by bitquence
This puzzle was solved in a way I wasn’t expecting it to be solved, but a solution none the less…
The big key was that bitquence noticed I was uploading and inscribing GIF images on chain, and that all the images had tokens associated with them except one. He then downloaded that GIF off of the blockchain and examined it. Within the metadata he found Photoshop layers that corresponded with a 12 word seedphrase.
At around the same time, but slightly behind noohp discovered that the gif was 12 frames and inscribed very lightly in the background were 12 seed phrases.
Both solutions worked to reveal a seedphrase that unlocked this 100% on-chain work. A similar work just sold at Sotheby’s for 21 ETH, so congrats bitquence.
The cool thing about seedphrase puzzles, is it doesn’t matter how you find the seedphrase and there is no judge. Find it the way I intended or not, and the prize is yours.
