No new messages since a while, has anyone used it in 2021 ?

The Pool should still be up, haven't heard of anyone complain about it in awhile.

Hello.

Is this project still alive ?

I am generating my own vanity address, but I would participate in this pool.

Yeah, the project is still around - https://vanitypool.appspot.com/ . Haven't heard anyone complain that it's not working, so it should be chugging along just fine.

The Pool should still be running, although sometimes we seem to get some API errors from the wallet API provider we're using.

Any option to have the results non case sensitive?  Might give people more incentive to find for others.

Probably not at the moment - it would require me to rework how the tasks are stored and rewards calculated.

Hey everyone!

So Vanity Pool has been a bit broken for the last two months - Blockchain.info decided to make their web API require some client installation, but since my site runs on Google App Engine, I was no longer able to use it.

Since then I updated the backend code and switched over to using Block Cypher's API instead. I finished updating the code today and now the whole site should be up and running properly.

Sorry for any inconvenience you might've experienced.

In case anyone is interested in creating some proof-of-burn addresses like 1TestxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxzoXNkw:

Had a bit of a shower thought the other day about a fully decentralised vanity address request/redemption scheme. Basically, people could post their vanity address requests to the blockchain, by sending to a p2sh address, that somehow (begin handwaving) also encodes the requesters public key, and the desired address pattern. (/handwave)

It's not really possible without more sophisticates smart contracts (Ethereum-grade), since you can't really do p2sh to an address you don't fully know as far as I understand.


I have solved '1Smoothie' job, it did disappear from the list but I see no reward transaction  on the blockchain.

Is there some problem in the pool?

I'll double-check the problem later today / tomorrow. Currently a bit busy.

The TestNet Faucet had to undergo a server change. It has a new hot wallet address and a new IP address for the node.

Thank you everyone that have been donating TestNet coins to the Faucet. If you wish to continue to do so, please use the new address: n2eMqTT929pb1RDNuqEnxdaLau1rxy3efi .
10  Other / Bitcoin Wiki / Lets keep the Bitcoin wiki clean - remove Tonal junk on: March 01, 2015, 01:57:54 AM
Here are some talks on removing Tonal Bitcoins from the Bitconi wiki:

- https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Talk:Tonal_Bitcoin
- https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Talk:Units#Remove_Tonal_Bitcoins

Lets keep our wiki clean of such clutter. The author of Tonal Bitcoins called them an altcoin (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=218388.0), and seeing as the Bitcoin wiki does not have a page for Litecoin (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Litecoin) or Dogecoin (https://en.bitcoin.it/w/index.php?title=Dogecoin) and he himself has removed any mention of altcoin-specific data from such pages as List of Address Prefixes (https://en.bitcoin.it/w/index.php?title=List_of_address_prefixes&diff=48686&oldid=24158), we should uphold those standards and remove Tonal Bitcoin from the wiki. Nobody cares about it, nobody uses it, lets remove this junk once and for all.

Nice piece, I'm also working hard on my dissertation Grin Grin

I hope it goes well for you! What is it about?
12  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Vanity Pool - vanity address generator pool on: August 18, 2014, 01:23:37 AM
thanks for your response. Could you please provide a link to a good step-by-step guide on how request an address in a trustless way? Thanks.

1) Generate a Bitcoin address, save its private key safely, find out its public key - use http://casascius.wordpress.com/2013/01/26/bitcoin-address-utility/ or https://www.bitaddress.org/ for example (you will need those services later anyway)

2) Fill out the details in https://vanitypool.appspot.com/newWork

3) Send the request, send the bitcoins to the specified address

4) Once your work is solved, use the tools from point 1 to combine the key

5) Import the key into your wallet of choice

Best start with a simple and cheap pattern to get the hang of things.

Hi, I would like to send in some work, but I would like to know several things:

1. Is this project still active?
2. How long can I expect it to take (8 characters including the 1 in the beginning)
3. What if my work is not solved. Do I get the money back?
4. I presume that if my lavishness is the highest, then my work would be first to be solved/worked on?

Thanks

The project is active, but there isn't much new development - it's a service that works by itself. 8 characters can take a few days or more, depending on how much money you put down as a reward. I can cancel the work and refund you if you change your mind, but it's not an automated process. In most cases miners should work on highest lavishness work, but some prefer smaller lavishness but also smaller complexity work for more predictable return.

I do have analytics. It looks like my bounce rate overall is 42.52%. For /newWork, it's 44.44%.
15  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Vanity Pool - vanity address generator pool on: July 24, 2014, 06:28:17 AM
If you allow me I could design a rough template for a new site and share it with you. As already mentioned, this project has great potential and all it really needs to grow is more available work, which can be solved by using different language and terminology on the landing page. I can do that for you.

If you're up for that, sure. Just keep in mind I don't have much of a budget for this, so I wouldn't want you to spend too much work on it Wink.
16  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Vanity Pool - vanity address generator pool on: July 20, 2014, 03:49:52 AM
So are the prices on the website still current? Are they in BTC?

In other words, do I understand correctly that if I would want to request a search for a pattern with eight characters (1Abcdefg) that that would cost BTC 8.3 or USD 5222?

Prices are calculated based on the current Bitcoin difficulty. The front page prices are a bit outdated.
17  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Vanity Pool - vanity address generator pool on: July 19, 2014, 06:23:18 PM
Thanks for the suggestion. The website is long overdue for a frontend overhaul, but I'm not really that good at frontend design. I also am rather busy with my other projects at the moment, so I don't have the time to improve this one. At the moment it's functioning quite well by itself.

Next time the bidding should be "auction ends at X date and Y hours after the last bid, whichever comes later". Wink

Congratulations on outbidding yourself twice?
20  Economy / Auctions / Re: LTS Fully Developed Altcoin Trading Platform on: July 15, 2014, 06:56:15 AM
Shouldn't the bids be on this thread?

At any rate, then I bid 15.01BTC
