This is where one manipulates the stock market such as to cause it to open on a target number, forcing a pre-determined geohash location. Because the DOW will only change by a certain amount per day, the range of possible future geohashes can be preguessed. From this range, select one - and then play the stock market to target that exact closing number.

Only the richest and most stock market savvy geohashers are likely to successfully hack the geohash.
