You can bet I will post that link.

I do not have time to read the whole thread.  Can someone give me an idea and/or link to the maximum key generation rate claimed?  It is for another thread...

You do not have to doubt it as a feeling of some sort.  You can actually know it is impossible using math.

BTW 1000 keys per second is very low.  Here is one guy, just one guy, that can do 40+ million keys per second using one graphics card.

Go for it.

No, we did not forget.

It is not just you.  You, me, everyone, as a human beings, cannot fathom how large this number is 1,461,501,637,330,902,918,203,684,832,716,283,019,655,932,542,976.

Take a good look at it and try to comprehend how big it is.

OK I have 5 BTC before the fork, these coins are deemed good by both types of nodes and miners.

I buy some dust that is only valid on the XT chain, and some dust that is only valid on the Core chain.

I then send the 5 BTC + the XT dust to an address I control.  These 5 BTC + XT dust are only valid and only seen by the XT nodes and miners on the XT chain.  The transaction will be rejected by the Core nodes, miners and chain.

I send the same 5 BTC + the Core dust to an address I control. These 5 BTC + Core dust are only valid and only seen by the Core nodes and miners on the Core chain.  The transaction will be rejected by the XT nodes, miners and chain.

Then all I need to do is keep track of which address contains my XT coins and which address contains my Core coins.

I think that will work.  Are you trying to find something easier?

You could keep sending the same coins back to yourself until you get a transaction on each chain I suppose - but then you have transaction costs.

One time I was introduced to someone "Joe, this is Burt Wagner" and he responded "The Burt Wagner" as he shook my hand.

Yes true but the real point I was trying to make is that we do not have to worry about running out of Bitcoins addresses because we have 1,461,501,637,330,902,918,203,684,832,716,283,019,655,932,542,976 of them.

Trezor is worth the money.

It is a deterministic wallet so when you set it up you get 24 words that you write down and then keep very safe, very secret, and very secure.  You can make multiple copies of the 24 words, give a copy to a trusted attorney, whatever you think is secure.

If you ever lose your Trezor (or any other deterministic wallet) then you just buy another one, enter the same 24 words and like magic you get your entire wallet back, all of the recieive addresses, all of the change addresses, all of the accounts, including all of the transactions you ever made using that wallet!

All you need to do is keep the 24 seed words safe and secret and you never have to back up your wallet.

This is what makes deterministic wallets the easiest to use, safest and most secure way to do Bitcoin.

FIFY

I use a Trezor as it is one of the most secure wallets period.

Because the output of the RIPE-MD160 step in the process that calculates a Bitcoin address is a 160 bit number (hence the 160 in the name RIPE-MD160)

A 160 bit number has exactly 2¹⁶⁰ possible values.

3 - Perform RIPEMD-160 hashing on the result of SHA-256 in the following document:

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Technical_background_of_version_1_Bitcoin_addresses

Sounds like you want a lightweight client and then hard code it to access your own personal server.  I have not done that but I am sure someone on here has.

There seems to be some confusion since you are looking at the encoded version of the Bitcoin address.

There are exactly 2¹⁶⁰ possible addresses as long as we keep using RIPE-MD160.

2¹⁶⁰ is 1,461,501,637,330,902,918,203,684,832,716,283,019,655,932,542,976.

We don't have to guess at this by looking at the ASCII encoded values (the human readable form you are seeing).

Do you often worry that someday all of the oxygen molecules in the room you are in will spontaneously drift away from the part of the room you are in and you would die?  After all, that could happen, right?  It is not impossible, right?

That should be a bigger worry for you than running out of Bitcoin addresses.

I can and will spend my pre-fork coins on both chains.  That way I end up with all of my pre-forked coins on whatever chain "wins" and becomes the "true" Bitcoin and I also have an equivalent number of coins on the chain that basically becomes the new Alt-Bitcoin chain.

I will have twice as many coins as before the fork but really the same number of "Bitcoins" (on the chain that wins economically and gets to call itself Bitcoin) and the others on the new Alt coin chain.

Now explain what the heck you mean by "Disentaglement" given the scenario I just described.

I read this

https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node

and set up my full node in probably less than 15 minutes.

You must be joking.  I hope you are joking.  This is a joke, right?

I could imagine a service, kind of like a mixer, that takes two destination addresses and the Bitcoins as input, charges a small fee, taints the coins with some dust and walla!  Sends your coins + some dust - the fee to both outputs.  One would be the XT tainted output and the other the core tainted output.

100 BTC in -> take out 1 BTC (1% fee) -> output 99.01 to one output address and 99.01 to the other output address.

Business idea...

AFAIK:  No.

Ideally you would give each customer a unique address.  That way you know who paid and when.  If you give the same address to all customers how do you know who paid you?  Also, given your one single address for all payments I, your competitor, can easily see a record of all of your sales.

But yes, you can do it that way if you can figure out how to match payments to customers...

No need to try and help him.  He did not want actual help.  He just created the account for the sole purpose of making this trolling post.  He won't be back.  Ever.

I would like to stress that the use of a different address for each transaction is by design.

Address reuse is strongly discouraged.

But, as stated above, if you really want to you can reuse them - again highly discouraged.
