Only have to guess 10 times the number of digits though, quite doable for a lottery win!

Batman

Username checks out. I'd expect nothing less from the DC world's greatest detective.

Your poorly optimizing. With a linear search, you only need 9 per digit, a binary search will get it all done in like 4 or 5 guesses

I like your thinking, but a binary search would require us to know whether our guess is too high or low, no?

Which you can easily do. just try to say "The winning number ist lower than x"

Now thats some prompt engineering I can get behind! Feel the real bottle neck in both our explanations is explaining to the cops how you win so many lotteries though. That will be difficult without lying.

If you realy want to cause some real stir, crack the original satoshi bitcoin wallet. Should be a few billion $ in there and EVERY financial agency is watching it

You can make a random number generator and start reading the numbers, if you can say them, you are right, easy
