How do people crack passwords with bitcoin miners lika antminers s5? And how can I prevent my account from being cracked?
Anyone got knowledge of this?
There is no such thing called cracking passwords with bitcoin mining and transactions, it is matter of leaking your account details and personal information to the untrusted trading partners, If you wanna really know about the details and hashing of cracking passwords, you should take the Ethical hacking lessons and course in an IT Networking field.

To crack passwords people can use brute force attacks with software like John the Ripper;

and to avoid get cracked you can use a complex password, something like:

I used burpsuite to crack my own account but it only makes 1 guess per second. To see how password cracking works, but i read it does million per second, so it is far away from that.

1/s is really slow = 3600/hour

At last brute force can take for ever if the password is complex. You can find on the net a great common passwords list called mil-dic.txt:

How do you know that the password difficult enough?
