GM Team 3, how are you?
We made some progress yesterday in exchanging the keys, but we are not done yet.
Team members had difficulties sending/receiving encrypted memos. Yes, I feel you, Hive can be quite frustrating sometimes. It's not user-friendly. Like crypto in general. The price for using cutting-edge open-source technology.
Encrypted Memos How-to
I recommend using Hive Keychain (available both as a browser extension and mobile app) for sending/receiving encrypted memos. You find your Memo Key on wallet.hive.blog, which you have to add to Hive Keychain first. Encrypted Memos are sent as a Hive transaction by prefixing your memo text with a # (hash) sign. For decrypting memos, go to your tx history on Hive Keychain (you have to click on a tx to reveal the text) or use your wallet on peakd.com.
Team progress
I sent my part of the key in an encrypted memo to @stdd, @ganjafarmer, and @wrestlingdesires.
@stdd sent his key to me (unencrypted).
So I have now 3 out of 5 keys.
@wrestlingdesires has the other 2 parts (his and @tattoodjay 's which he delegated to him).
Prize Update
I have good news for you too:
The prize has been increased by 12.5 HIVE for each team (contributed by Seflhelp4trolls) in addition to the 50 HBD.
Team 1 got an additional 5 HIVE donation from @soyrosa.
Team 4 solved the puzzle as the first team

Team 4 figured out the key as the first team. The finder of the key divided the prize but kept the "remainder" of 2.5 HIVE. I wonder whether this was negotiated.
Team 2 also solved the game already. The key was found by @manniman who divided the prize (both HIVE and HBD) equally.
Let's get this puzzle solved!
We have approx. 5 days left to solve the game.
Next step: I will now sent the keys I got to the other team members and also ask the other members to do the same (@wrestlingdesires, you have the two remaining parts), so that we can start finding the key to the @hivegiftcard3 account.
