What did you try to do? If you had the full key it should be relatively simple. Maybe I should post some instructions on claiming the key?

- howdoibtc 1y agoLaunch Electrum, create a new wallet, "Import Bitcoin addresses or private keys", paste in the recovered key. If you just paste the raw key, Electrum uses a legacy format, and none of the transactions show up for that private key. Adding the "p2wpkh:" prefix to the key makes the transactions show up, but I realized that well after someone else claimed it. I don't know if this is an Electrum thing, if this is considered general knowledge now for those who regularly use BTC, or if it's a quirk of how BTC has evolved.

- howdoibtc 1y agoGot it :) Pasted the private key into the email address field on the Wufoo signup page, and the validator helpfully told me my "email" was invalid, with the whole key included.
- redactsure 1y agothat was brutal! I knew you were holding out something. Oh man this is a brutal bug as well. That's an OS popup! That's gonna take me some time. Actually even worse it's neither an OS level or dom level item custom chrome rendering layer.
- howdoibtc 1y agoThat explains why the validator error looked entirely different when I tried to reproduce it locally -- I was wondering about that. And yeah, it's a CTF, gotta hold onto issues until the flag redemption is back up.
- redactsure 1y agobet you couldn't do it again. It's back up. Patch is a bit hacky but should work plus I blocked the signup page. Real patch is a chromium update (like a week of work) so imma avoid that until needed.
