Anyone break this? I thought it was Vigenere at first, but seems like it's more than likely Playfair, all the keywords I've tried haven't yielded anything? Anybody able, or willing, to provide some guidance.
Thanks in advance!

I am also stuck.
There are several comments in the YT video about it being "hard", so I thought they had figured it out, and it would tie to the comment about JFK saying "not because they are easy, but because they are hard". But... I can't get anything coherent.

Tried sub, playfair, vig, all 3 came up empty. Short sample size makes it tough. Waiting for inspiration.

I read on another board that keyword was CLUE(S). Haven’t tried it but thinking it’s playfair. No guarantees! 🤷🏻♀️

No guarantees! 🤷🏻♀️ I know that 'clue' was the keyword for the two Vigenere ciphers he's posted but I've tried it in the Playfair and it, unfortunately, does not work. I did find these comments on the video with this clue interesting though:  Didn't know if he was just telling them to not worry since it isn't NEEDED or because that sentence may hold the answer. Found it odd that he quoted it, but maybe not. |

Can someone confirm if this is Vigenere?

For those who want some closure on Bonus Cipher #1...

:: Encrypt using keyword CLUE with a Vigenere Cipher ::
TETAU AMOAN AOAOT EAROA
:: Google this and you get NEW ZEALAND <-- the connection to JFK and the confirmation you have the correct alphabet for Cipher #3 ::
Full Disclosure: I did not solve this. It was shared with me. I did encrypt with CLUE numerous times, but I never made the connection from gibberish to JFK.

Not following. Google shows the closest match but those letters don’t spell anything as far as I can tell. And how is New Zealand related to jfk?

Wow! You’re right, that’s so abstract!
