Pretty Addy Giveaway - part 2

[DarkStar_]

Is it possible to try and for a Segwit one?

That's DarkStar_'s department, let's see if he responds here

I can't figure out how to get it working, without getting people to download VanitySearch and using the kp and rp commands. I thought I had figured it out, but haven't had success combining keys since then.

For security reasons, I don't want to require people to download a potentially insecure/backdoored binary, so I'm not sure how to proceed from here.

I know that's why i ask for both of them here. DarkStar_ is everywhere...

Well, i don't know how to help you with this. Since you are not sure about the binary, i won't download it and i guess it would not be possible to make the addy.
If by any case you find an alternative, just let me know. I believe Loyce haven't an issue to post here about this.

@LoyceV

Can you do 9 letters?
What type of fees are we talking (obviously this can't be a giveaway)
1alexandre  or 1ALEXANDRE or a mix of upper and lower

 @DarkStar_
Same question but with a bench32 ?
bc1qalexandre  or bcq1Alexandre  or all upper case or case insensitive.

disclaimer : I don't want "alexandre" but another 9 letters name, I will share this via PM upon agreement on address cost.

Thanks

Can you do 9 letters?

Did you read OP  

• 4 prefix characters are easy to find, 5 is okay too, but 6 (case insensitive) is the limit for this giveaway (and please don't ask for 111111, it is not possible)

I tried with 7 prefixs, and it took more than 10 hours, so 9 prefixs is impossible, please read carefully before you request something from others.

@LoyceV

We're talking rediculous fees on my hardware

1alexandre  or 1ALEXANDRE or a mix of upper and lower

Lower case l isn't possible, but the time requirement also depends on the first character. Case insensitive, 1ALEXANDRE takes 3 weeks for 50% chance on my hardware. But (still case insensitive) 1zLEXANDRE for instance takes 1.7 years for 50% chance.

disclaimer : I don't want "alexandre" but another 9 letters name, I will share this via PM upon agreement on address cost.

You're best chance is probably hiring a VPS with GPU (or multiple GPUs), some of them have hourly rates. I think a good one will be 2 orders of magnitude faster than my hardware, so that should make it much faster. You can still use split key, so your VPS provider won't have access to the private key.
Alternatively, if you happen to have a long list of 9 letter words, finding 1 out of 1000 makes it (about) 1000 times faster to find the first one. You just won't know which one comes first (that's how I found 1NewbornSeat for instance).

In my opinion, case insensitive addresses don't look good at all. I have 1FAUCEtSUck for instance, and it would be worse if the start of the word has mixed case too.

Yes i Did read OP, the OP is 2 years old, things changes.

I've asked the question because DarkStar_ offered a 8 letters for a small fee.
So maybe a 9 letter isn't that expensive.

9 prexis isn't impossible, it is just very expensive.

Ok, well I tried.
And now that you said it, I do want a case sensitive address.
It would look silly if it had lower and upper case.

However, I am screwed.
My name has "L" that can't be lower.
But it also has a i that can't be upper

I am doomed to not have my name.
Thanks for the answers.

bc1qalexandre is doable, would take some time but I should be able to find it (50% chance in about 7.5 hours). No idea how to price this though.

[LoyceV]

No idea how to price this though.

I charged around $5 for anything that took about a day for 50% chance on my system. Using GPU slows down my laptop (a lot), so I only run it when I'm not using it.

Would be pleased can I have catfish too!

See:

7 prefix characters is too much for this giveaway, but I can make you an offer if you post your request.

[efialtis]

Hey Loyce,

may I take you up on this once more? (might even ask for another one soon).

Lower case L isn't allowed. I can't make it full caps either, because upper case O isn't allowed either.
So you end up with something like this, which doesn't look that good:

Prefix: 1AmMehdi (If you can create with 7 letters)

7 characters is too much for a giveaway. I can make it for around 0.001 BTC (and a few days) if you really want it.

Prefix: 1aMehdi (Otherwise use use this one)

I can get you this one case-insensitive:

Case sensitive 1aMehdi has (almost) the same difficulty as 1AmMehdi.
