It just changed the punctuation, so that:
MY NEW LIFE WILL BE AN EASY ONE. IN PARADICE, DEATH IS LIFE.
This makes the most sense to me.
BELLI WHO INSPIRED THE CONTEXT OF THE MESSAGE IS LEFT OUT. HIS NAME IS SPELL BACKWARDS LIKE PARADICE IN THE 3RD PART.
BELLI EASY LIFE WILL NOT BE IN PARADICE DEATH (something to that effect)
A million views in one day on Youtube.
The video does a really good job of making it interesting for the lay person.
was there anything significant about the crossed-out letter? What did it turn out to be?
I just heard the news
Did zodiac ever mention the gas chamber in his letters to the press ?
Where else did Z mention paradise & slaves ? I forgot.

Good question!
Or at least explain what is meant by ‘un-transposed 340’?
Hi Mr Quicktrader
The un-transposed cipher refers to the cipher built by the team.
The transposed cipher refers to the cipher that we have always looked at over the years.

Thanks – can you tell me, what the left cipher has to do with the right (original) one? I start from the ‘H’ homophone and the next homophone, an ‘E’, is not even nearby…
Clearly, the right one is the original Z cipher. The left one is completely different to that one. So far, I cannot see any pattern how these two ciphers should be related to each other (‘pattern’).
I wrote Doranchak yesterday to clarify but have not received any answer, yet.

Quicktrader, my video shows the 340 has to be split into 3 sections. Then you have to apply the "down 1, right 2" reading rule, making sure to jump to the opposite sides whenever an edge is reached. It’s a little confusing. I plan to make a followup video that I hope will make the process easier to understand.
In the meantime, take a look at this transposition grid:
Positions in the 340 are numbered from 0 to 339.
The grid image tells you that the re-arranged version of the cipher reads like this:
0th symbol, 9th symbol, 18th symbol, 27th symbol, etc.
Just keep following that grid. When you’re done you will have a rearrangement of the original Z340.
Then apply the key to the rearrangement and the solution will emerge.
Hope this helps!
I like that. I hope you don’t mind me sharing at ZodiacKiller.com’s mb. I gave you a shout-out.
Oh, sure . Happy about that.
Anyway, the idea didn’t come from me but from somebody on reddit who I can’t find again at the moment…!

I don’t know, it seems more like a coincidence that “will eb” spells like “Belli” in reverse. Or, a trick by Zodiac, that doesn’t negate the most reasonable meaning of “will be” in the context anyway.

Cool. Here’s the BBC news from yesterday.

Cool to see it on the BBC though I was hoping they’d do a TV report about it.
Hello! Congrats with the solution!
Couple of questions if I may.
What is your estimate of when the crack could be done given the technology context? It looks like not early than late 90-s or early 2000-s. The setup uses ~1G for text database, ~128M-32G of RAM and decent CPU for calculating the scores. Am I right on this? Could it be ever done without supercomputer (mentioned by Samuel Blake)? Any recent developments in cryptography were used or it’s just the classic stuff?
Ok, let’s say its year 69 and we guessed the ‘knight move’. Now what? Is it possible to guess the cypher somehow? Was it even possible that days?
Hello
Here some of the several articles published in Brazil
