naah

10K Tuesday or Wednesday

 I can't stay up that late!  I'm going to bed Smiley

Do we think 10k is in the cards this fine evening?

Define "fine evening"

You talking UTC because evening is over.

You must be west coast, USA? or in one of those time zones.

Gonna be a stretch to get to $10k before midnight (in the next 4 to 7 hours).... but hey, I determined my response to your post by throwing a dart at the wall(observer)

Yeah, it's officially night here but I've noticed over the years that rallies tend to happen right at my normal bedtime forcing me to stay up later than I should.  I'm expecting a rally any minute now.

Thanks for your reply. I have tried this previously and every other thing that I have read about trying to import from the multibit hd wallet. Nothing seems to work. I have the seed words, I know that the btc is there and unspent but will only show as a watch only in electrum and also blockchain.com wallet. I have tried to find the receiving address in the iancoleman bip39 adding various dérivations but cannot find that address anywhere to get the private keys. 
Any other ideas?
Thanks


 Did you try clicking the bip44 tab under derivation path using iancoleman's site??

most obvious giveaway is that they are providing miners which are thirty times more powerful than the current legitimate ones in the market
also never trust anyone who says that they only accept crypto until and unless they are really reputable and known in the community

 And they only require 600 Watts of power to run....
What a joke.  I hope nobody falls for this shit!

It's been too long since I did this. Cgminer 3.7.2 rings a bell.  Also i remeber having to use device manager to remove all instances of the miner and then running zadig again and letting the device driver install for each stick.  Once the drivers finished installing, I ran cgminer.... When I get a chance, I'll boot my old machine and see if there's something on it that might help.

Why do you want to run these anyway?!   It's a waste of energy; you likely wont see any reward at all.

as you can see, there are 6 characters that aren't required in order to find the private key in this particular case.


actually 6 characters in base58 encoding with a checksum covers two things: the 4 byte checksum and also 2 bytes of the data which is the private key. so you still have to search ~65k keys to find the correct one (the only possible result). in your special example you get lucky that compressed private keys have a fixed last byte so the number reduces to 255 keys but still it has to be searched.

Well OP used a compressed private key so luck wasn't at play in my choice of WIF.

Edit:  damn I hate posting from my phone. Had to fix the formatting.

3052  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I Gave Away Bitcoin Private Keys! - Experiment. on: February 02, 2020, 10:46:28 PM
Hello!

I recently launched a new project called BitcoinRoot.

On the website, I slowly revealed the private keys to a topped up Bitcoin wallet.

As I was presenting my new project to my own community and to other crypto communities I noticed that people were ready to deploy all sorts of scripts and apply all sorts of tools to get it cracked before anyone else to reap the prize, which was around $25.

To check out the project I have published a very short video about it here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEn5obPY5wU

Now, this brings a question. If people have an incentive to crack a private key with only 14 unknowns and with such a small prize at stake. What incentive is there for supercomputers and quantum computers to crack a million dollar worth of BTC wallets!

Is this a big concern for the future of Bitcoin?



 Seems like you didn't do all of your homework.

  The compressed WIF is a base58 encoded version of the private key to which superfluous data in the form of a leading network byte and an additionional x01 plus a 4-byte checksum suffix are added before the conversion.  There weren't 14 unknowns for calculating the private key - I would guess more like 7 or 8 unknowns.


 Random private key - 5BB6F9F60C4895ED1633996AF36512B95C4CACC801649898B828587010407F05

Compressed WIF - KzHzWbfHQk9QKWwY3yMjWGvWXuWGHDB7qjoDdA5YndCcbTUx1aFn

Compressed WIF decoded to hex - 805BB6F9F60C4895ED1633996AF36512B95C4CACC801649898B828587010407F0501BFAE1BCD

The first byte (80) and the last 5 bytes (01BFAE1BCD) are irrelevant to the private key itself:

Change the last 5 bytes to 0s
805BB6F9F60C4895ED1633996AF36512B95C4CACC801649898B828587010407F050000000000
and convert to base58 -
KzHzWbfHQk9QKWwY3yMjWGvWXuWGHDB7qjoDdA5YndCcbTHWJdNw
KzHzWbfHQk9QKWwY3yMjWGvWXuWGHDB7qjoDdA5YndCcbTUx1aFn <--- actual WIF compressed of the private key

as you can see, there are 6 characters that aren't required in order to find the private key in this particular case.

 We need not worry about supercomputers or quantum computers unless we're going to publish our nearly complete private keys' WIFs online.  I think, if we can refrain from that, our funds will be SAFU.

Hi guys, this year the presentation of the monthly statistics has changed a bit, in the first chart I have added 2 more columns to indicate the lowest and highest price of the current month.
In the second there are no changes, it continues to show number of visits and the price of bitcoin on the last day of the month of Bitstamp.
Finally, I added a new chart with the closing price of the day and the daily volume.

 No hats?  Not even the Greta hat counts?

You have been robbed, xhomer.    Little to no credit for your actual labors and thoughts that you had actually produced a viable product that fits well within acceptable WO standards.

The world is filled with injustices, and many of us go through large swaths of life hoping and maybe even believing that injustices are not going to happen to us, until they do.. and there may even be folks who are sympathetic to your plight (I happen to be one of the sympathetic ones, even though it may seem that I am not)... but it is a cat eat dog world with the persistence of slights, sneering looks, denigrating remarks, omitting of favorable facts.   Cry Cry Cry  #staystrong  #nohomo

     It would be difficult to find another WO member who lived so entirely for his duties. It is not enough to say that xhomerx10ievitch laboured with zeal: no, he laboured with love.  In his hat making, he found a varied and agreeable employment.  Enjoyment was written on his face: some hats were even favourites with him; and when he encountered these, he smiled, winked, and worked with his fingers, till it seemed as though each pixel might be displayed in his face, as his mouse-pointer traced it.  If his pay had been in proportion to his zeal, he would, perhaps, to his great surprise, have been made even a councillor of the WO.  But he worked, as his comrades, the WOs, put it, like a horse in a mill.

Difficult times are coming, begin to familiarize your loved ones with a little decoration, so the trauma will not be so great when you have to use them.

I don't think that BAR will ever be usable for its intended purpose of creation.

Hi, everybody.
Tell me can I generate keys in hex format using Vanitygen?
More precisely, I need to generate millions of keys in hex format with the output of each key in a new line without any additional characters.

 You don't use vanitygen for such a simple task! All you need is a simple random number generator.

 https://onlinehextools.com/generate-random-hex-numbers

  This does exactly what you're looking for but you would have to copy and paste them to a file.
The beauty is the website uses your computer for the calculations and there's a copy to clipboard button. Simply input the number you want ie millions and then the length in bytes 64...

 Careful though, 100k took about 10 seconds on my machine - (pretty kick-ass CPU in it though it pales in comparison to some of the newer AMD options available) - and one million took around 3 minutes.  Copy pasting was quick though.  Here's a sample output of 10 @ 64 bytes

Sorry xhomerx10, I already knew that I was missing something to finish, this year you made 2 hats, only new hats of new members are added to the statistic.

Although if you want, I include all the hats that the "xhomer team" does all year round. Wink

I leave it to your choice, tell me something about it.

 No, new member hats is fine.  I just didn't like seeing that zero.  I only like trailing zeros; never leading zeros! Smiley
Thanks!
