Addresses that start with a 3 have a different version string byte than the ones that start with 1. IIRC, the addresses with 3 prefix are the ones which are multisignature addresses. I don't think vanitygen supports those at the moment. You could presumably modify the program to do so, the code is available. This might be helpful: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/List_of_address_prefixeshttps://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Technical_background_of_version_1_Bitcoin_addresses

I have played with vanitygen for ages generating address for Bitcoin as well as other addresses and love it. I thought I would take part in the mining pool but get a vg_ocl_context_callback error: CL_OUT_OF_RESOURCES error waiting for idle I believe this is a driver error. Is there a syntax that can be used to mine with CPU rather than GPU and / or, should I get my old desktop working again, what is a good graphics card to run this with please? Also, should I eventually find some keys, I cannot see where to log in on https://vanitypool.appspot.com/ website to submit said keys? Thanks for your time.

Check available work -> click on the pattern and it will show you a page where you can post the solution and your address. Is the site still active?

You actually can using the -X 5 or -X 6 Switches. Check out here http://cryptolife.net/upwg/ to cross verify (and start with some basic three digit vanities to ensure they work before going for the 369121518... vanity wallet. Regards,

Is it possible to search a whole batch of different patterns on the same run from a text file -f <file> File containing list of patterns, one per line (Use "-" as the file name for stdin) -s <file> Seed random number generator from <file> If so could someone please reply with the proper command line for say test.txt Thanks in advance

This little program is wicked. Took down my i7 monster. Was sucking %100 of the CPU. A full 8 cores at %100. Had to shut her down to get it back. Didn't realize there was a worker thread option. Derr.

I tried running vanity gen in order to get an address with the prefix 1King1 but it was showing that I'll have to wait for 10 days in order to reach a probability of 50% only! I think my processor sucks! (Intel Core 2 Duo) Moreover the gen makes my computer laggy most of the times. I can't even open Task Manager!

If you a decent GPU try running oclvanitygen it might take significant less time.

I think my processor sucks! (Intel Core 2 Duo) Moreover the gen makes my computer laggy most of the times. I can't even open Task Manager! I will make you several 1King1 addresses in seconds if you give me a "Step 1 Public Key" from bitaddress.org Go to the site bitaddress.org, move your mouse around to add the randomness required then click on the "vanity wallet" button. On that page look at "Step 1" - you will see a "generate" button. Click it. Copy the "Step 1 Public Key" and post it in a msg to me. Copy the "Step 1 Private Key" and keep that to yourself. You will need it when I send you my part private keys to combine to calcualte your addresses and corresponding private keys. You will recombine them in that same vanity wallet window and it will give you your private key (you have to do one at a time).

I have a question about generating vanity address. Is there a way to generate address with rented hashes? (For example nicehash) If yes, how ?

No, finding addresses is not the same as mining coins.

How difficult is the prefix you want to generate? I don't mind making one for free as long as I don't have to run my machine for too long. See the post above yours for instructions. If you have several different prefixes I can run that too in a file using one public key from you.

Did you download a binary or the source? If the source, run "make" (assuming you have a build environment set up). If a binary, just run ./vanitygen
