I have one that starts with 1Mini.

Found a good thread on it. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=25804.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=25804.0) Title: Re: Strange BTC address - 1TRUMPETaLt9z6ZcMtKVP9ZocwYJz9vyE Post by: kuverty on December 22, 2013, 06:52:38 PM Yes, that's a vanity address. They are not that well known to newer people anymore because there is no working firstbits lookup and many people dislike the idea in the first plave. IMO, though, someone should set up a working firstbits lookup for the most popular coins as soon as possible. I would, if I could. But I bet there are a lot of people on this forum who can code that.
