This is like the opposite of what I would want to share for a VPS. If I use it, it is for privacy.

$0.50 per eth is also not that far fetched in my opinion
Fact is: it's pure speculation. In general it's recommended to diversify, if you put all your eggs in one basket you can also lose everything by 2020.

It can happen, and I have seen it happen. I remember a user starting at 500 sat faucet, and going up to 200 mBTC before he busted. He wagered several Bitcoin in that session.
It is possible, just not so likely. If we ignore the house edge, chance of doubling is equal to chance of losing all.So on average, if you start with 500 sat faucet 200 times, you can get 1 mbtc once.

You can try asking here: Vanitygen: Vanity bitcoin address generator/miner [v0.22], I've had great help there to get it working.
It doesn't ask me to choose a device, I have just one option I guess, so I can't tell you how to select it.

Thanks PD and ndnhc for the bonus and Bingo

If the people in the spreadsheet got paid already I think I was forgotten... If you're still working on it I'm just too impatient

If internet is unreliable, 6 confirmations is no longer enough. If you (or your continent) gets disconnected from the main miners in China, you'll be running on a smaller side chain that gets replaced once you reconnect.
Bitcoin will survive. It's just as unreliable as your internet will be.

No, I search 25000 keywords, the percentage is just based on the total chance.
I found a 6 character address yesterday in about half a second. I tried again, and it showed 20 minutes for 50% chance. It's just a matter of being lucky to have the right string in the random addresses quickly.

I can't make backups of my fiat money! Trust me, I would if I could!
If I lose my phone, the only risk is that someone might brute-force the 6 digit pin before I restore a backup and empty the wallet.
On the other hand, with fiat money I'm pretty sure nobody can take it out of my wallet without physical access. With a bitcoin wallet there is a (small) possibility for that to happen.

That means you have to pay at least 0.142+ Bitcoin more. Where is that supposed to come from? The next fool who drops you money?
Tell me: would you also dare run this in real life, with some guys who are bigger than you are?

GMTA! I was typing the exact same thing before I read the next page.

Note that 1king takes about 40 times longer than 1King. This holds for every combination: starting with upper case is much faster.

24 hours is the time required for 50% chance to hit it. If you stop and restart your search at any possible time, it is still 24 hours for 50%. If you don't find it the first 24 hours, it is still 24 hours for 50% chance, but calculating from the start of your search, you have a 75% chance to find it in 2 days. You can be lucky or unlucky to find it.

I can answer that Exact case is not possible, an upper case i is not allowed. 1SmartiPhone would take about a million years. Case insensitive thousands of years. Anything above 8 digits is virtually impossible at the moment.

That traffic volume is due to trading, not because of buying items. I don't even think one percent of the bitcoin volume is used for actual sales.

With -r there is no reason for adding the 1, unless you want to. The -r option reduced the speed to less than 100kkeys/s here, about two thirds off.

I have considered searching for somethhing short (say 1Hi), and after this doing a second search through the output-file. Unfortunately, oclvanitygen says I can better use CPU for short strings. I did indeed notice it takes about 1 second for an ocl-search to start, so I can't just output a lot of keys this way. On CPU it finds about 200 per second, if that would be 25 times more on GPU, I could do a regex-search on only the keys starting with 1Hi at 5kkeys/s. But it doesn't work that way, I'm just curious why.

If bitcoin is losing value over this, why is the scaling crisis not solved? Isn't it in the interest of miners to do so?

I need 11 days for 50% chance for "1actmyname -i". Are you running on a fast CPU, or on a very slow GPU? If you use a fast CPU now, it may be possible to switch to your video card and get much more speed out of it (for me it added approximately 1 character in the same time).

Out of curiousity: what if the vanity pool finds the required address, but adds something bad behind it? Just bad luck for the person who bought the address? My search for 1faucets" ended up with an additional "uck" behind it. If someone pays good money for an address, they won't like it.

Doge has been a lot lower too! I've seen it go up and down a few times, so I made some (small) buy and sell orders if either one happens.

https://coinmarketcap.com/ shows a Market Cap of $22.4M, while Clams is worth only $1.3M. Amazingly I hear/read/see a lot more about Clams than about Doge. So yeah, I believe Doge will last longer. 5-10 years is not that long, it could very well be worth about the same as it is worth now.

The transaction fee for Doge is about 1% of the Bitcoin-fee, which makes it perfect for small transactions. In Bitcoin you pay around $0.05 on fee if you want any speed, which makes small transactions expensive.

I realized something else: you are comparing "money" and "wealth", while the two of those aren't directly related.
Suppose bitcoin would go up in value and be worth 100 times more. Market cap would be around 6 trillion dollars. You would say wealth went up, right? But in reality it only moves from one person to the other, as nothing more is produced because of it.
Just like increasing prices of all products does not make us more wealthy, even if our salary increases with it.
Owning more money would make me wealthier, but only if someone else loses money over it. Not if we all get more money.

The weird thing about money is: the more you think about it, the more you realize you don't understand what it is.

Thanks for the list. I've been thinking about creating a faucet of my own for a while now, and this is a nice start for the advertising part of the pages.

Same here. At first I thought this would be a casino, but it's a faucet. Some how I did not read further than "Jackpot" in the topic title.

It would be nice to make this work without email registration, just an 1addy could be enough.
