The fastest cracker we have, Dirbaio, can do 20 tries/second. He will take about about 31.34 years to find! No one will commit this much energy and time to crack the wallet with only 0.1BTC, and therefore the puzzle will not be solved... unless minimalB is going to provide some hints.
You mean :
Within 31.34 years the password will be cracked.
For example if the password is : aaaaab 2 tries to solve.
kjxusl 12,640,320 tries to solve.
ZZZZZZ 19,770,609,664 tries to solve.
It works like this if you use normal Brute-force dictionaries.
But, if you use
Rainbow Tables, it may take less (If they work with AES-256 because I can't find one yet).
Note: a 6-letter word (a-Z) dictionary will be : ( 52 ˆ 6 ) × 8 = 158,164,877,312 Bytes
52 : the number of possible characters.
6 : word length
8 : the size each word will take in bytes, 6 bytes for the 6 letters and 2 bytes for CR (Carriage Return) and LF (Line Feed)
About 147.31GB in Table.
Also, you can split your table, or generate a part of it, then us it to brute-force, then generate another part...
And also, you can use multiple computers with different tables to brute-force.
So, if a computer (probably a VPS) is solving 10 Passwords/Sec. You can use 10 computers with 100 Passwords / Sec.
It will only take : 19,770,609,644 / 100 Passwords / 60 Secs / 60 Mins / 24 Hours / 365.24 Days =
6 Years 3 Months 5 Days 12 Hours 16 Minutes 24 Seconds 54,864.36 microseconds
Not that much time, right?
