Vanitygen: Vanity bitcoin address generator/miner [v0.22]

[AlanSbor]

Yes, I need 50 number of characters

You're missing my point: what you want, is not possible.
If it would be possible to brute-force private keys, Bitcoin wouldn't exist. You can try this for the rest of your life, but you'll never find what you're looking for. So safe yourself the trouble and don't bother.

I'm not trying to say what's possible or not. Will you be able to compile these programs for me with the changes I need?
I do not want to plant a flame here.
If you can help, you will be plus a hundred in karma.

The problem is solved. De-seeded the binaries, found the place of the number, replaced it with 50 by binaries.

would it solve the problem of not running on 390x?
no win 10

I know I asked a few months ago. Does anyone have the performance numbers running oclvanitygen on a GTX1050 vs 1050ti ?
OR
The RX 550 vs 560?
They are all going to cost me the same more or less but I figure if someone has the answer it will save me the time of mucking about.
Thanks,
Dave

Looking for some guidance modifying the gen to add a PIVX clone.
What/where do I need to modify the code?
TIA

Since PIVX already exists in one of the vanitygen builds, you would have to base it off of here:

I'm a beginner
~
Put the number 50 instead of 19.
if (zero_prefix> 50)

If I understand correctly, this increases the maximum number of characters to search for from 19 to 50, correct?
If so, you can just safe yourself the trouble: it's never going to happen!
But if you still want to try, you can just as well search for "only" the first 19 characters. If there is a hit, which takes somewhere around a quintillion years, you can manually verify the remaining characters to see if they are correct too.

Yes, I need 50 number of characters
I know that the generation itself is 2 ^ 256

I need a program with this change.
Can you help?

I don't think anyone will help you with this.

he has figured out how to do it himself
but instead of using this random generator (Vanitygen) to brute force keys,
I think he should just use this one BitCrack - A tool for brute-forcing private keys
that tool generates bitcoin addresses from sequential Hex Private Keys
have a list of addresses with balance and you're set on your task (wasting your hash power)  
but who knows you might get lucky and hit a few addresses with balance

Correct the coin I want to add to the gen is a clone of pivx, just not sure where the coin data is located in the files.

[TidalWaves]

I have modified the keyconv.c, oclvanitgen.c, and vanitgen.c files with the correct coin data but now I get the error

Hint: Run vanitygen with "-C LIST" for a list of valid prefixes.  Also note that many coins only allow certain characters as the second character in the prefix.

regardless of which combinations I try

Is there another file I need to modify?

[OgNasty]

If you're running it on windows I don't believe I can help in this case as I'm utilizing unix with vanitygen and it's run for me at a command prompt with the command "./oclvanitygen"

Looking over one of my favorite threads and noticed that some people are having issues with 1080ti GPUs and windows.

Just create a .bat file and add a couple lines to restart the application if it times out.  Hope this helps someone.

Code:

:restart
TIMEOUT 8

ENTER VANITYGEN START INFORMATION HERE

goto :restart

Anyone have any clue where samr7 went? He just disappeared 6 years ago and hasn't been heard again.

Maybe he smoke weed with Satoshi? 🤔
That's how I imagine crypto paradise.

Hi there, when i want to use the GPU with this i get:

Error loading kernel file 'calc_addrs.cl': No such file or directory

But the file is there and in the directory, so what's the problem?

Probably due to missing libraries. Try to do this step https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=528225.msg5928819#msg5928819.
Btw, are you on Windows or Linux?

If you're on Windows, you have to be in the working directory in command line for calc_addrs.cl to be detected.

Assuming you're using cmd, input the following (with the path being the vanitygen folder):

Code:

cd C:\Users\admin\Desktop\oclvanitygen

Yes that's working, many thanks

Is it also possible to genereate addresses that are not starting with 1?

AFAIK no, you can't do that with this software. Vanitygen only supports legacy address which start with 1.

 If you use the -X parameter with Vanitygen you can create addresses for many different coins.

is there any forecast to fix compatibility with new cards?

[Remember remember the 5th of November]

is there any forecast to fix compatibility with new cards?

Only if there is incentive to do so, but...and this is a big but. The original author of vanitygen has not been seen for years, so even if there is someone out there who could, you would have to use a fork of this software.

However, if you can tell me what the issue is with newer cards, maybe we can think of a solution. OpenCL not working? Errors, or slow generation?
