1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible to hack BTC on that address only by knowing the bitcoin address? on: February 18, 2017, 06:53:15 PM
Actually, I want to know how to attack the bitcoin address.
Get an address with a high amount of bitcoin in it. How can a hacker attack this address? There is no other information. There's only address information and bitcoin amount.

This is actually very easy. 

1) buy a pretty good quality computer.  Best if fully dedicated and separate from your normal computer.
2) download and install Vanitygen
3) 64 vanitygen64 (64 is faster and works better than normal vanitygen)
4) start scan on the address like this at the command line: vanitygen64 1FuckYouc6zrtHbnqcHdhrSVhcxgpJgfds

It will take some time for sure.  But soon you will have the key for that address. 

Don't let the morons around here tell you it is impossible.  That is just plain wrong.  It is scientifically provable that this works.  Dumbasses who don't understand statistics love declaring this impossible.  Vanitygen guesses millions of times per second.  With enough seconds, it is not impossible. 



Lol I love your word soon...
it is quiet quick when you want an adress which start with some letters and that you don't care about the rest.
But if you are targetting a precise and full address, here is a table for an estimate of time :

vanity    difficulty    average time
1B    22    < 1s
1Bi    1,330    < 1s
1Bit    77,178    < 1s
1Bitc    4,476,342 (4.48E+6)    < 10s
1Bitco    259,627,881 (2.6E+8)    3 minutes
1Bitcoi    15,058,417,127 (1.506E+10)    3 hours
1Bitcoin    8.7339E+11    1 week
1BitcoinE    5.0657E+13    1 year
1BitcoinEa    2.9381E+15    60 years
1BitcoinEat    1.7041E+17    3,500 years
1BitcoinEate    9.8837E+18    200,000 years
1BitcoinEater    5.7325E+20    11,700,000 years
1BitcoinEaterAddressDontSend    1.6209E+47    3.3E+33 or 3.3 decillion years.

So yeah if several thousand of years is soon for you, sure start it now Wink
2  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Delay to have the 1st confirmation on: February 06, 2017, 08:29:25 AM
Hello all,

Am I alone to have so huge delay to receive the first confirmation.

I send some bitcoins yesterday evening and it took almost 2 hours to have the 1st confirmation.

Today morning I send again some bitcoin and I'm waiting now the 1st confirmation since 2 hours.

For both transfer I used the fees proposed by the bitcoin core wallet so I don't think it is a problem of too small fees.

Do you have similar delays?

Thank.

My opinion is that the mass adoption is the more important.
The number of BTC is fixed, so the price will simply follow the mass adoption which is the key Wink

895$ right now
push push we must be over 900 to finish that day
5  Economy / Speculation / Re: What's next (short term) ? on: January 19, 2017, 09:43:39 AM
tbh, if we cannot stay upper than 900$ today, I really think we need to prepare to go down very quickly.
we have a resistance at 900 that we need to go over very soon or...
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Using GPU cards for mining? on: January 18, 2017, 08:24:33 PM
GPU cards are still very well used with other crypto mining.
Regarding bitcoin, it is not interesting anymore since long time.

So if you want mine with GPU, simply mine ALT coin.

7  Economy / Economics / Re: I have 12 BTC in my Account, How should I invest this?? on: January 18, 2017, 06:37:42 PM
With 12 btc, what I would do is :

Sell BTC around 900$, buy back more BTC around 800$, sell a part at 850$ and another part at 900$ and start again the loop.
It is a good moment now to do this kind of trades due to the votality.

In 2 days MegaUpload 2.0 will be released.

It is built on Bitcoin.


Do you have any idea about the amount of bitcoins than this kind of website can use/trade?
Can we expect really that this can create an up trend for bitcoin?
