Ledger-backed
Every ticket is logged to a shared ledger. No two sessions search the same range on the same window.
01
What it is
lotterypzl is the conductor CLI and guided TUI for Bitcoin Puzzle lottery search. Each run claims a small contiguous key range — a ticket your GPUs can finish — records it in a ledger, and never repeats work on the same window.
Two engines
PZL-Roo for known-pubkey puzzles (Kangaroo windows). PZL-Hunter for address-only scanning.
Detached sessions
Launch --detach on a GPU rental. Monitor live, tail logs, stop and resume by run ID.

Honest math
For puzzle #135 with window size w bits:
prob per fully searched ticket
≈ 2(w − 135)
ops per ticket (SOTA Kangaroo)
≈ 1.15 × 2(w/2)
w = 96 → ~1 in 550 billion per ticket
Expected value on high puzzles is usually negative.
This tool is for honest, bounded participation — not a ticket marketplace or a get-rich scheme.
Reality check: High puzzles are a lottery with negative expected value.
lotterypzl helps you search honestly, coordinate distinct tickets with a shared ledger,
and never waste GPU time on duplicate ranges. Verify any candidate key with independent tools.
