The arithmetic
The range for puzzle #119 contains 3.32 × 1035 private keys. A modern eight-core laptop running this solver checks on the order of four million keys per second, so an exhaustive sweep would take about 2..6 × 1021 years. Searching randomly instead of in order does not change that expectation — it only changes which unlucky order you fail in.
