The 4th 30 year unsolved CIA Kryptos cypher solution.

The decrypted message is:

"did you dig down two meters northeast of the wall at clock time in Berlin, Kryptos?"

This is in reference to the The Mengenlehreuhr. Converting using the Mengenlehreuhr system gives you 186 degrees.

The compass is a clue as well. "NORTHEAST". Measure 186 clockwise (since this is how a CLOCK works) this gives you direction.

"Did you dig down 2 meters?"

2 meters northeast at 186 degrees.

"ONLY WW KNOWS"

WW is William Webster director of the CIA at the time of installation.

William Webster hid something at 186 degrees northeast "clockwise" 2 meters from the "wall".

Confirmed via email with the creator's sec.

As far as i know, kryptos anon was heading out there but havent heard back since.

  1. Convert the clock time in Berlin to an angle and degree using the Mengenlehreuhr system. It's not the world clock it's the mengenlehreuhr clock!!! The angle is given by the number of lit fields in the third row (five-minute intervals) times 30 degrees, plus the number of lit fields in the bottom row (one-minute intervals) times 6 degrees. The degree is given by the number of lit fields in the first row (five-hour intervals) times 30 degrees, plus the number of lit fields in the second row (one-hour intervals) times 15 degrees. In this case, the angle is 6 * 30 + 1 * 6 = 186 degrees, and the degree is 2 * 30 + 0 * 15 = 60 degrees.

  2. Find the coordinates of the wall near the Kryptos sculpture using Google Maps (38.95227° N, 77.14573° W. according to jewgle)

  3. Use a compass or a protractor to measure 186 degrees clockwise from north at the wall location. This is the direction of northeast according to the clue of the compass that another anon posted (bless up to that anon that posted the compass it made it really click)

  4. Measure 2 meters from the wall northeast at 186 degrees
