It just takes too much time to generate a vanity address. BTW , if we happen to ask a third party to generate it for us, doesn't he get the private keys automatically?

Yes of course Wink , so if someone want to have  a vanity address  I suggest to generate it  alone with personal pc.

Not exactly - there's split key generation available, where it's possible for them to generate the key for you, and yet keep the private key safe.


I didn't know this, however it is recommended to generate it with own personal PC.

everyone bashing this guy without even knowing the methods of generating vanity address just passess as an ignorant.

There are methods for:

Mining vanity address and get paid in pools.
Mining vanity address in such a way that you dont even get the privatekey it self.
