Starting on October 19th, a program called “Block Battle: Who is next Satoshi?” would start with the participants’ mission to “build and prosper the global blockchain industry, to create the best blockchain in the world.”

The show will consist of six episodes which will evaluate different areas of the projects, such as product marketing, as well as educational sessions with mentors. After passing all these tests, the winner will be chosen.

The first episode of the reality show will be broadcast in Korea, China, Australia, Thailand, Malaysia, Taiwan, Singapore, Vietnam, and Hong Kong. Viewers can vote live for their favorite project. The winners will receive 100 million Won, equivalent to almost $100,000, and marketing advice for their projects.

Only those who have not launched the primary network of their blockchain can register, and the registration process will be carried out until September 5th on the programme’s website.

According to a news portal, the jury will be composed of Lee Shin-Hye of GBIC, Rayol Hwang of Hillstone Partners and Damian Williams of Alchemist Ventures, as well as academics from Korea University, Dongguk University, the Korean Blockchain Industry Association, the Open Blockchain Association and the Korean Blockchain Association.

One of the jurors of this reality show will be Roger Ver, who has generated controversy in the crypto-universe by allegedly spreading misleading information about Bitcoin (BTC) with the purpose to mislead its followers to buy Bitcoin Cash (BCH) instead of BTC.

The South Korean reality show, “Block Battle: Who is next Satoshi?,” plans on finding a new Satoshi Nakamoto (mysterious personage that invented the Bitcoin blockchain) to revolutionize the current blockchain technology universe. An ambitious project which promises a lot of exciting episodes.

Bitcoin (BTC): Win 1 BTC For Solving A Puzzle On Reddit – Are You Up For It?

Reddit users were surprised a few days ago with a new puzzle that will give away 1 Bitcoin (BTC) to whoever manages to solve it. The puzzle is contained in an image that features the Bitcoin (BTC) logo surrounded by words that allude to the technology that gave life to it. According to its author, the key to finding the solution is contained in Bitcoin’s white paper, written in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto.

The publication was made by an Internet user nicknamed Cryptogreetings, who accompanied the image with the phrase “A bitcoin is contained in this puzzle. Good luck!”

Additionally, in an update, the author added that the image contains, in logarithmic scale, the ideas that inspired Satoshi Nakamoto to create the distributed accounting technology:

This work is composed of the words from Satoshi Nakamoto’s white paper, in logarithmic scale. The ideas that inspired Satoshi to create a solution that would revolutionize the modern economy and industry in a scattered manner. This paper reflects on the elements that gave life to this technology and challenges the underlying security model. Hidden in plain sight lies a treasure hunt. A BTC is hidden in this work.

The last similar puzzle rewarded with Bitcoin (BTC) has been solved in 3 years

To verify that the reward announcement is legitimate, Cryptogreetings added a link to the address where the Bitcoin (BTC) was uploaded, which has received small transactions, as of May 19th, to make a total of 1,00152936 BTC, at this moment.

The addition of small sums to this address could be the result of testing by those interested in solving the riddle. The reward currently stands at $8,200 worth of bitcoin on the CoinMarketCap portal.

This announcement was quickly acclaimed by the community and the fact that the reward has increased some satoshis in just two days is reminiscent of the puzzle known as “The Legend of Satoshi Nakamoto”, which took three years to be deciphered and gradually increased its reward to a total of 5 BTC, to be finally solved in November last year.

A large number of comments have accompanied the Reddit thread in which the image was published, and in solidarity with the users, they have shared their findings to contribute to the construction of the solution.

If you want to give it a try, here is the 1 BTC-worth puzzle.
