PUZZLE #4810: Elliptic Curve Discrete Log (diff 2)

elliptic-curve learn difficulty: 2/7 compute author: system unsolved

Recover k from Q = k·G on y² = x³ + 3x + 8 (mod 23). Curve order ≈ 23.

DATA
Curve y² = x³ + 3x + 8 (mod 23)
A 3
P 23
G 0, 10
Q 19, 1
Curve Order Hint curve has ~23 points
Hint Find k such that Q = k·G on the curve y² = x³ + 3x + 8 (mod 23). G = (0, 10), Q = (19, 1). k is an integer between 1 and 22.
Answer Format integer (recovered discrete log k from public key Q = k*G)
