Title: How to create millions of Bitcoin addresses Post by: 0x77 on April 30, 2021, 08:06:46 AM Welcome, I am new here. I want to ask the question of how millions of Bitcoin addresses worked for personal use for a project without mentioning what it is and linking addresses to a single wallet such as a blockchain. Any money transfer to any of these addresses turns into my account. I know the use of a private key.
For Bitcoin addresses, but it will be tiring to make 10,000 addresses and link them, so what should I do when I do not want to use the API system This project has some suit because it is a stupid blockchain system. Sometimes it closes the API and the project that will be created cannot be linked to the API permanently. Are there ideas and solutions? ??? :-\ Title: Re: How to create millions of Bitcoin addresses Post by: NotATether on April 30, 2021, 11:00:32 AM First of all I advise against writing in all bold text because it hurts the eyes especially at night.
Now as for your question, I am guessing that you are looking for a library, and not some web service, for creating millions of private keys. If you are OK with using Python, you can install the bitcoinaddress (https://pypi.org/project/bitcoinaddress/) module and simply generate an address like this: Code: from bitcoinaddress import Wallet Example output addresses: DO NOT USE Code: Private Key HEX: 03902e4f09664bc177fe4e090dcd9906b432b50f15fb6151984475c1c75c35b6 You can run that in a loop and it's never going to rate-limit or block you, because it runs on your local machine :) If you are looking to use some other programming language, please tell us which one it is so we can help you specifically about it.

If you want an easyer method that allows you to greatly simplify the backup procedure, you could also use electrum, let it generate a seed phrase, write down this seed, then go to electrum's console and do: wallet.change_gap_limit(10000) wallet.storage.write() listaddresses() Then you'll get a list you can import into a db.. Do prepare to wait a LOOOOOONG time... A 10.000 gap limit isn't small... TBH, my sollution isn't per defenition better than NotATether's, it's just differrent :) Title: Re: How to create millions of Bitcoin addresses Post by: LoyceV on April 30, 2021, 11:26:54 AM millions of Bitcoin addresses worked for personal use for a project without mentioning what it is and linking addresses to a single wallet The only reason I can think of why someone would need millions of addresses is spam/scam/extortion email, where you'd like to keep track of who paid you.So I'm curious what your "personal project" involves. That being said: have you thought about how you're going to keep track of which address got funded? If you import a few million addresses into a wallet, I expect it to grind to a halt.

Title: Re: How to create millions of Bitcoin addresses Post by: PrimeNumber7 on April 30, 2021, 03:14:31 PM NotATether's sollution works... I would say that using a deterministic wallet is superior to generating private keys individually. The resources to monitor transactions sent to the addresses is the same for both, however keeping backups and storing the private key is much easier with a deterministic wallet.

- https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ It generates addresses instantly including seed so you can backup both seed phrase and private keys. Just type the number of addresses you want to see under the "show more row" and it will show all addresses with private keys.

Title: Re: How to create millions of Bitcoin addresses Post by: BlackHatCoiner on May 02, 2021, 01:34:34 PM Are there ideas and solutions? ??? :-\ Not sure what exactly you want, but you can derive millions of Bitcoin addresses from one master public key. Check iancoleman (https://iancoleman.io/bip39/) to see how it works. Loading the balances of millions of addresses won't work if you rely on third parties. You'll have to run your own Bitcoin node for sure. If you're keen on using electrum here's a nice way to achieve what you want: Electrum Personal Server (https://github.com/chris-belcher/electrum-personal-server). Not best option, because Can you analyze the first reason a little bit more?1. Electrum wallet isn't scalable (one of the reason is usage of JSON to store the information). 2. Electrum server maximum request for each user. Besides the above, he'll expose all these addresses to electrum nodes, which isn't recommended for privacy reasons, especially if they're clients' addresses.

I can't imagine how much memory the internal state would use up if multiplied 1,000,000 times not to mention it will be very slow and slow down other tabs since it's running inside the browser's JS engine. |
