You should at least take a look at the site faq before posting it.Don't worry your keys and BTC's are safe.

Code:
Q: That means, somewhere, on some page, my private key is listed?
A: Yes. But it will never be found. Ever. Because math. (@see http://redd.it/1rurll)

Crack those private keys now. Goodluck. Smiley

Don't mind it. Im sure you will not see any balances from 1,000 pages you will browse. Our private keys are safe.

messing around with the website I typed random characters in the number of the page and actually found an address that had 0.04 Btc, it said 0.04 total received final balance 0... is this rare??? I didn't record the address though I just kept looking.

each day i see i don't really understand the Bitcoin protocol, i need to learn what cryptography is and how really bitcoin works.

The total received therefore is already part of the history of that address.

Final balanced is 0 because it was already send to others. You can check that at the address transaction id.

that is pretty rare.  You should save that pvt key and see if it has any clams on it.

If you check some you will find that there are a lot of address that have been used but the total balance is always 0.

What do you mean about why does that happen? It's just a normal thing being done by addresses: send and receive bitcoins. Also, you could not really "guess" which of those private keys have something in them so really, good luck on spending hours on that site.

If you check some you will find that there are a lot of address that have been used but the total balance is always 0.

why does that happen  Huh Wink
That user does not know what they are talking about.  I'm no expert but my understanding is that private keys are a number, and that the amount of possible private keys that there could ever be is just under 2^256.  

If you want to understand just how safe that amount is, please refer to this video, which will explain just how long it would take to calculate the private keys with the greatest supercomputer ever.

Now what you need to understand is that when you have a ridiculously large amount of possible numbers that could ever be created, there are also very small numbers.  An example of a very small number is 1.  People can use any private key to access their coins, and therefore people with poor wallet software or people who created their private keys themselves could use the number 1.

Any normal wallet software will randomise your private key, which extremely close to 100% of the time results in a crazily large number that no one will ever calculate.  The chance of that not happening is so low that you can safely ignore it, as can everyone in the world.



The first page on directory.io is showing the private key numbers 0 to 127.  Because those numbers are extremely low, someone has decided to use them as their private key, either as a joke or because they're extremely dumb.  Of course people know those private keys, so they steal funds from them and the balance is 0.

What you don't understand is that directory.io is in fact not a database.  It just generates the private keys' addresses when you go onto each page.  But you can never go through any noticeable amount of the pages.  



Security test:  type in an extremely large random number (for example, 947184818258275825772489752923525971841411113849).  You should put it into the domain like directory.io/947184818258275825772489752923525971841411113849.  Now look at the addresses.  Have any of them been used?  No.  No currently existing computer would find funds created using decent wallet software, ever.

Even without that site, everyone has access to everyone's private keys. A private key is just a number between 1 and 0xfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffebaaedce6af48a03bbfd25e8cd0364140.

Yes same as your bitcoin balance which is a very good example of this. Lol

No one can access to private key. Brother i would tell you that look at the name it is mentioned private key what is the meaning of private key so you will know better that what I'm talking about so no one can access private keys because these are too different. They are private and cannot be trace by another or get by another person.

So, in theory if someone were to start clicking around there and stumble on a private key with a balance, they would be able to steal it?  I know it's astronomical odds, but that is how it would work?

A wild guess would be people send small amounts to some the listed addresses as some kind of a joke/game. Then see if they can quickly withdraw it before somebody else does.

Hey, I might just do that later when I get home.

yes. the private key is, well, the key to anyone's funds.

and the odds of a conventionally generated private key being on there are indeed astronomical.
