Title: Paper wallet generations. -Key format(5K, L2, Kx/Ky, etc.)
Post by: max_werber10 on February 01, 2016, 01:34:49 PM
G E N E R A T I O N    O F    P A P E R    W A L L E T    A N D    H O W    T O     W O R K    I T   O U T- My main problem.
        I really don't know but i have tried as much as possible creating bitcoin Paper Wallet Keys and since i've been so lucky learning for a year now how to generate it i do at most get the correct Paper Wallet keys but there are actually no funds in that paper wallet. It seems it is an existing wallet but there are no funds and transactions in to which i can sweep.
        I know how to also generate a combination of an Uppercase and Lowercase Letters(Alpha) and Numbers from 1-9 without a (O0Il) been part of it in a second. This totally defines my Alphanumeric keys then i start with a 5K, k(x, y) and L2 at the beginning. But at the end when i try sweep the account i see a bitcoin address been produced from it but funds results in a- 0.00 BTC.
        I totally suggest there is a problem somewhere.

       Can someone help me to identify the problem cos i definitely think there is a problem somewhere and why i can get any Paper Wallet with no funds in it?.

Why you think that your paper wallet addres will have funds? You generated a new wallet. Have you tried to buy a normal wallet (for fiat money) on any shop? It comes with some coins inside? If you don't send bitcoins to this addres it will not have any bitcoin.

        Ok I prolly understand you now but what i'm actually saying is that, I try to forge Paper Wallet Keys on my own and end up getting a valid one with an address but all the time the fund keep giving me -0.00 BTC. Luckily I only got someone with a cent and it wasn't enough so that alone kept me sticked to this forging thing like for real bruh.
         I just have a bounty hopes that imma get half a million dollar BTC.
         I'll be glad if i get more info on whatever i'm up to. I bet y'all gonna earn to if i get to the best of it.

if you look at how many character combinations there are to make an address.
you will be enlightened that there are more combinations available then there are grains of sand on this planet.

and only a couple million of them with actual funds on.

true bitcoin programs are completely random.

so even if you could search 10,000 addresses a day of totally random addresses
you would still not even get atleast a 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% chance of hitting an address in your lifetime.

so the only real chance of striking an address with better odds is to play on the muppets who use "brain wallets" where their key is derived from common words

but not many people use "brain wallets " anymore. so your chances of hitting a brain wallet that is still funded is less than the random, but still not worth wasting your time on

First of all, private keys don't work like that. The private key that you are generating is a private key in Wallet Import Format (WIF). Any key that attempt to generate as you are will, in most cases, result in an invalid private key due to the way that WIF private keys work. They are a raw 256-bit private key encoded in a way that includes a checksum, and if that checksum doesn't match, then the key is invalid.

Secondly, you aren't going to get any coins from doing this. It is a waste of time. There are so many possible addresses out there that the probability of finding an address that has coins on it is incredibly low. If you did find an address with coins on it, it probably won't happen again.

The problem you are having probably has to do with the way you generated the WIF key. The key itself was most likely invalid, but depending on the software you generated an address from it with, it probably mapped to some address that had some small amount of coins in it but the invalid key means that you cannot import and spend.

   Thanks   y'all    for    the    feedback.
   Anyways   there's   no   harm   in   trying
   But   is   there   another   way   in   the   cryptocurrency   that   can   help   me   achieve   my   goals    in   the   bitcoin   hacking?

The amount of energy used to hack a private key can be well used to mine bitcoin- you still stand a chance to find a block.

Forget about hacking addresses.....
