Shorena is already offering such a service, for a pretty reasonable rate too. I don't think anyone will choose a newbie over a legendary member patronized by nearly everyone

Do you send the address first, do we send the money first or are planning to use an escrow service?  There might be some trust issues.

I agree. Although it's nice to see he does it in a secure way, 4 digit addresses are barely worth anything. It took me 3 seconds to generate Address: 1CAT5XoxNBaSuTp9NT3JW1Z3DJ9nbD4qSe, and that's on CPU only.

I recently found addresses starting with 1Larceny, 1History, 1EUREKAS, 1Pistons, 1cheques and the hardest one to find: 1Lacerate. Those are a lot harder to find, if you could offer 6 digits for 0.9 mBTC I think there may be a market for it.

If I ever get my Nvidia to join the search, I may set it up for free.

 What exactly do you agree with?  At first I thought you meant patronizing Shorena but then you say you'll do it for free?  It's not possible as your time and electricity are worth money.  Do you mean you will charge only your cost or are you going to operate at a loss just to put Newbie out of business?  That's downright meant (edit: mean even).

I agree that legendary member Shorena is a. cheaper and b. sounds much more reliable.

TBH, the addresses you are offering are the length of dust. It will take max a few minutes to generate one of these addresses. How 'bout...

0.01 for 6 characters?

You can get up to 5 character case sensitive vanity addresses for free and 6 character non case sensitive for free...

Not trying to sales trash, just putting a point across.

 Well,  in fact, nobody said Shorena was cheaper.  As for the fun part, what happens when you're running a 24/7 operation tying up one computer and all your "free" time?.  It will no longer be fun but you'll be stuck making free addresses so as not to risk a negative rep!  It's a slippery slope offering free services. ;)
