Story

What the post asked, what the answer turned out to be, and what the chain says happened. The record below holds the data.

ia

July 16, 2019. The last 7 mBTC block. At the moment of funding, 7 mBTC is about $77. A good omen, says the author. The question is ia. Format [solution], no TOMI field, digits 71a. "It may need a hint (or even more than one)."

Victor/Victoria

It didn't. The answer is Victor/Victoria, the film about a woman pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman. A recent Wattpad chapter, the one about Cariga Bright, mentions it.

u/Randomiser saw it coming. They had even tried it for block 69. The slash was the hard part. "Didn't think to put the slash in there", wrote u/Quantris.

The claim confirmed at 04:00:45 UTC, in the next block after the post. "Wow, fastest solving ever", says the author. A mind miner beating every bot. How about that?
