I have used it before and made some good ones, but now a days you can only get first few letters like 4 for free, if you want further then you have to pay some good amount of money to get it.

I would much rather go for a straight address created without Vanity, because in my opinion the Vanity generated addresses are less secure. If I used one, I would not store large amounts of coins in them, but that is only my opinion. The debate is open for people to discuss this in more detail and prove me wrong. ^smile^

I like the conservative approach to the safe keeping of my money, and would not risk it.

I asked a friend of mine for a BTC address in order to send him a payment and he sends me this....

It seem cool to have one. Actually I was thinking of getting myself a vanity address I just don't know where to get one.
I'd like to see my name on my address and it also can be handy to show proof that the address is really mine since I have my name on it.

Google is your best friend, with a good cpu you should have your own address in a few hours

Or go ask Shorena for it, he has vanity gen service where he will generate one for you with a cost
Though i completely forgot the link to topic, go ask him directly

How many of you use Bitcoin Vanity Addresses ?

They are the addresses that can be customized .
For example, My BTC Address is :  1APoorVr8yRZZSM9DP76VCgrmkd54jHdkR

Show off Your Cool BTC Addresses below !!!

congratulation dude. i think you're the lucky one hahaha
can u tell me the tips? i courious  

edit: you don't get these addresses by chance, you make them.

there are no tips. but steps to take
- you choose a couple of characters (case sensitive) that you want your bitcoin address to start with
- put it in the code (command line) the link for the code is in comment #3
- wait until the code finds you your custom address (it takes a long time if you have a slow PC or set a lot of characters)

vanity address is pretty cool, but I think I can't make one of them

afraid of the waiting process on PC, it may take a long time for my PC

It took me only an hour to create this address in which First 6 letters were of my name. It generates addresses faster when the case sensitivity is turned off.

I would soon make my own address and post here, but I have a question, do we get private key and all the keys associated with the addresses ? Just confused a little bit.

[Lauda]

I think there was a similar thread on 'awesome' Bitcoin Addresses, however it wasn't about random vanity addresses. These addresses are usually just created for personal sake and are definitely far from what I'd call 'awesome'.

It took me only an hour to create this address in which First 6 letters were of my name. It generates addresses faster when the case sensitivity is turned off.

Depending on the hardware it might take time but with every consecutive letter it becomes much longer.

Anyone can, just don't go for more than 5-6 letters and it shouldn't take too long.

Leave it over night and it will be fine.

It's pretty simple... Use vanitygen (a program to create vanity addresses). Just run it without any options, and it'll show you the help-instructions... Follow these instructions, and 'mine' for a vanity address.

The program will show you the private key and the associated address... The address is not that important, you can always recreate it using your private key. Just make sure you write down your private key, because if you lose it, you lose access to your funds
Oh, and also, never give out your private key... Whoever has controll of the key, has controll of the funds...

There is no "i" so uses 1 to replace.

There is "i" actually just not "I".

1Chris4GEoLLjdh4juFXGwY7snaazuxvKb

It helps because then there is only one option for "i" so when you go with the case insensitivity option that one letter can only be a lowercase "i".

i used to use vanity addresses, but then someone told me how using one address over and over again is really unsafe. so im using coinbase rn, but they dont support vanity addresses. would be cool though.

What's really concerning with what you just said is the fact that you were worried about security therefore you use the absolute worst secured kind of wallet. An online wallet. They have access to your private keys just an FYI.

Yes using the same address isn't recommended. Basically because then anyone in the world can easily see where you're sending and receiving money to/from.

I would suggest you look into safer methods of bitcoin storage... Now. Before it's too late and you're left holding the proverbial bag.

I was trying to generate 1coffee and I found:

 I might have to use that one

use a word that starts with an l and it is even easier

i've own unique vanity bitcoin address started with arranged number like 123456 but i doubt with its security so i decide to back to my old address which i think have better security because the privatekey never been exposed in any address generating software,but it seems i'm wrong,probably will get back to vanity address soon

The software is solid man, terminate your internet connection whilst doing it or run on a computer that does not connect.

Oh... My bad! All the while I thought "i" is not allowed so tried to avoid it. Thanks and I will go back and generate more!

I'm a scotch fan, and I love Ardbeg. They made a '65, but I'll never be able to afford it.

I these vanity addresses safe to use? I heard that some services which can be used to create these are not so transparent.

I never bothered with this 'address customization' because I don't think it is important at all. Bitcoin addresses are like bank account number to me.
