🧵 The Riddle
Anon at Thu, 28 Nov 2024 17:38:16 UTC No. 16496348
Hi there! Can anyone help me to solve this riddle, to encode the cipher? It looks like stream cipher, maybe rabbit, but characters like ":[]" is out of context, I think. And the key "FreeYourMind0001" maybe is red herring although it is 16 symbols lenght.
It is located in the www.breakthechains.site
(I am not english-speaking, so I am sorry about my possible mistakes)

The video in the site were changed during the time and renamed from test.mp4 to fix.mp4, so this is the new screenshot. A letter in the first line has changed from L to little L or I (i) or vertical line |.

Those letters are smaller than regular capital letters

anything with an = at the end will be base 64
the = are used for padding to keep block length consistent

I forgot to say, what I also noticed. Letters in the first and fourth lines repeat the case of each other

where did you find this?

It is in the www.breakthechains.site

Yes but where did you find the link to the page, whois records show that it is only a few days old. Is it part of a bigger challenge, did OP find it on some forum
also I have typed the text of from the video:
V2SlxMK6/gi0VJvzVncDzQ==
pbjixSD9/UieY:P=
odtqpKp3/Bpeo[]
PY33uVRo/pioU1dzCudPwQ==
RnJlZVlvdXJNaW5kMDAwMQ==

This is too particular.

Yes, it is the part of the bigger quest. This site will appear from www.enterthematrix.site if you click the red pill and then decode the ASCII code

The RnJlZVlvdXJNaW5kMDAwMQ== is FreeYourMind0001 in Base64

i will look at this tomorrow but have no idea how to do it yet

Thanks. I have heard that 4chan members are very good in solving various riddles and ARGs so I asked for some help here.

I have until now not found much but the left side, meaning everything before the \ resembles a matrix. The page says "The Matrix Hides the Truth" and the word matrix is all over the two sites. Furthermore it is conveniant that all the value on the left are letters or numbers but the right consists of base64 which when decoded just gives random letters.
When searching for "matrix chains" I get https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matri

something to note is that we know that the last 5 bytes will be .site in ascii most likely

I thought that it is hint for threading ciphre. But maybe it is only stylization of the film

Odd that the key "FreeYourMind" has been padded with 0001 to make it exactly 16 characters (128 bits). The video text is probably some form of encryption with a 128 bit key length. I tried AES-128 bit but only got nonsense in ascii.

that would seem reasonable but the weird formatting has to have something to do with it [] and \ is not a normal char in a base64 string

and what is the source of that webpage?

This picture. This is the start. There is only qr which leads to the web.

hmm, I dont seem to go anywhere
thought maybe there was some hint anywhere but apparently not

This is probably too schizo but, reading top to bottom, the characters after ":" and between the "[]" base64 decode to w3(www) I thought it was part of a web address but then realised it should be ://www not :www

>I have got the hint, that only first line is needed for solution and it is encoded by AES. But the key FreeYourMind0001 does not fit.

the key is literally "RnJlZVlvdXJNaW5kMDAwMQ==" AES-192 bit which will decrypt the first line and show plain text "theonetest.site"

then the next one is easy to deduce from the obfuscated javascript surrounding the string "lockthetru" = unlockthetruth.site
and the next is similar, there is an array of strings which if you concatenate 3 of them will lead to finaltruth.site

Oh, that is the answer. Thank you very much!
