Yes, there are two answers in the crossword that are also BIP-39 seed phrase words. Once you know these words, you'll use them in conjunction with this cryptic message.

I see, I see. And just to be clear the riddle is this part:

>There's a 12-word wallet in which one of these words swept the first quarter of the game and other word swept the rest.

There was a 16 minute delay between your sats getting there and them being removed. I don't know if that means a person was monitoring it VERY diligently or if a bot was put on this wallet some time back. Once you figure out the riddle, you'll know that the phrase has to be extremely low entropy.

LOL I sent those sats and forgot about this haha!

I figured the only way to get into the wallet is trial and error since the riddle seems less obvious to me this time, and I think I have 10/12 of the seed word. I thought the easiest way to tell if it's correct is make a transaction to it, so it has some history.

So someone already figured it out and just hasn't posted the xpub?
