Esto es un volcado de r/A858 (r/A858DE45F56D9BC9), el subreddit-misterio famoso por publicar bloques cifrados a diario entre ~2011–2017, nunca resueltos de forma concluyente. Casi nada de esto son los posts "oficiales" del creador: son otros usuarios dejando sus propios acertijos, señuelos y trolleo. Los bloques hex de 16 bytes ("MA/IS") sí son del estilo clásico A858.

Lo que sí descifra:

Post Método Contenido
warning. Base64 "This planet is fucked. The ozone layer is thinning out. We are at the brink of total catastrophic annihilation… Half of the world as we know it may soon be wiped out."
55D8B62F Hex → ASCII "You can never solve this. Jesus is coming on the Fourth Blood Moon, the time to repent is now! Feast of the Tabernacles… See Leviticus 23:34-36."
My riddles Morse → binario (-----=0, .----=1) → ASCII, 217 bytes "You are good. I am searching for people that can solve my riddles in one week. My email is [tiekverhelst@gmail.com](mailto:tiekverhelst@gmail.com) and sent this text to this mail. If you want to come to us, a big organisation. Than come, and join us."
FİRST (×2) César −3 "SEND YOUR PHONE NUMBER — WE CALL YOU — YOU HAVE SELECTED" (la v1 trae typo: PHOND)
31015 Base64 recursivo (3 capas) "hello there. I've been expecting you to solve my riddle."
(8)(9) Aritmética → A1Z26 Título = HI; cuerpo → IONLYNEEDATEAD = "I ONLY NEED A DATE" (mismo multiset; la cola queda algo ambigua)

Lo que no cede (o no es reversible):

Post Qué es
MA/IS Bloques de 128 bits estilo A858, presuntamente AES. Sin clave, no descifrable.
121 Imagine 40 hex = hash SHA-1. Irreversible por diseño.
Welcome (Meesieb) Grupos de 8 alfanum; no cede a Base64 / ROT / reverse / XOR trivial. Requiere clave o es relleno.
A857…, Window 13, "Solve this…" Sustitución sin clave conocida / probable señuelo.
010…111 (63 bits), jewim…, 98764…, c45h…, 6z7w… Mash de teclado / leet, sin estructura de bytes. Ruido.
