BitCrack - A tool for brute-forcing private keys

[chrysophylax]

Please tell us more.

Not Yet ...

I never release (or more - never have released) product details until they are nearing completion, or complete.

I will say this though, the 'cracking' should never be taken for the 'Money' as the Goal - EVER. The building of such thing are for Proof of Concept and Development. Mostly though, they for the 'Fun' of doing.

Money is NEVER the Goal - it is only ever the Consequence!

very wisely said. Best of luck and success

Much appreciated ...

When the Project is to take shape in Early to Mid 2023, the Person in charge of it is @NotATether. More than a Collaboration, it is the basis of developing different ways and means for distribution of workload via theFARM such that the work is 'forked' across theFARM and processed in smaller data 'chunks' than it is today.

Again though, this is a long term Project and will come into it's own when Time allows.

Sounds exciting. Keep us up-to-date, please. And if NotATether is leading the whole thing or is on board, then it can only be good   wish you good luck with your plans and the project.

I myself have not really intensively played with BitCrack except trying it on-the-fly. I would like to know if you experienced puzzle hunters mostly work with Bitcrack, or with BitCrack2, or VanBitCracken etc.. ? What is best suite for puzzle hunting and for what reason? As far as I have understood correctly and have also found out myself through trial and error, BitCrack cannot get by with multiple GPUs. You have to manually put the workload on the respective GPU ids, but automatically this does not work (e.g. VanitySearch can). Would VanBitcracken or VanBitCrakcenS help here (what exactly is the difference between these two?).

There are a lot of good people here ...

@NotATether is part of the Community and is not immune to sayin ghis piece when it comes to BitCrack. Others who have used it, and other Applications, can definitely give You an insight.

The focus for Us at CWI is not BitCrack per se - it is more the developmental processes for this to actually function as intended. Hence the reason NotAtether is working on our PaymentProcessor (Topaz) at this point in Time.

InfraStructure - that will be the make or break of the Software. Both have to work hand in hand, but without good infrastructure, project like this fade in the shadows.

Recently i've bought a small U2 bitmain asic SHA 256 antminer (1 GHs) to test solo pools.
It works fine so yesterday I've bought a Terminus r606 (1THs) to do better tests.
The question is: can i use cubitcrack/clbitcrack or keyhunt-cuda/keyhunt or similar software to brute force a bitcoin wallet like puzzle 66 one? or the asic processors work ONLY with sha256 algorithm?
No matter if it could be slower than a gpu, just to understand if it's possible to make a running test and verify how many keys/s they can manage.  

Another small question that it's a bit off topic but i didtn't get any reply on another thread (here is full of experts):

Hi, yesterday i've started solo mining on btcz.solopool.org and i found my first block after 7 hours.
Is there any way to find out from the gminer lines when the block is found?
I checked the exact time and it shows only the 111st share, but not the words "block found!".
How can I trust solopool.org if I cannot verify on my computer that I have found a block?
they could assign it to me based on their will and not based on the effective work done by my gpu (1060 3gb), or am I wrong?

Of course you can use bitcrack or keyhunt for trying to brute-force the puzzle #66. But I guess you wanted to ask if you can use your miner therefore, right? Your miners are ASIC? If so, then see following question and the reply which might be helpful for understanding.

Sorry if this seems like a dumb question. But wouldn't it be more effective and much more performant to use an ASIC miner for the computational tasks of VanitySearch instead of a modern GPU? My GPU does 1,750 MKeys/sec and in comparison to that a GekkoScience Compac F USBminer does about 300 GHashes per second. Is there possibly a VanitySearch version that uses such a Compac F for the calculation and thus works much faster, any clues ?

It's impossible to use ASIC miner (such as SHA-256, Scrypt or X11) since there are many cryptography involved to create Bitcoin address such as ECDSA with secp256k1 curve, RIPEMD-160 and SHA-256. There's also various other operation such as checksum function on Bech32 and Bech32m address.

But it's different scenario if you're talking about creating ASIC or programming FPGA device to generate vanity address.

Hi, yesterday i've started solo mining on btcz.solopool.org and i found my first block after 7 hours.

Are you talking about Bitcoin? Which block did you find and with what hashrate and miner ? I'm pretty sure you didn't hit a block in the bitcoin chain using a GPU

Thanks, you've understood well my question.

No, i'm talking about BitcoinZ (BTCZ). But the question is about pool fairness in general. If I mine solo in a pool (bitcoin pool too) how can i be sure that if i find a block the reward will be sent to my wallet address? is it an authomatic process? or do they do it apart? How can they subtract the pool fee if it's authomatic? Is there a possibility that my computing capacity will be exploited without being recognized what I deserve if I manage to find a block?

Aside from my past reply which already mentioned, don't forget ASIC is abbreviation of application-specific integrated circuit.

But the question is about pool fairness in general. If I mine solo in a pool (bitcoin pool too) how can i be sure that if i find a block the reward will be sent to my wallet address?

You can't. You need to trust the pool you use.

P.S. Additional discussion and question about pool/mining should be asked on new thread.

In lack of options the Team Black Miner will release ETH private key cracker tool for ethreum POW (Nvidia).

Hi, can anyone wrote here ranges for 67 Btc address 1BY8GQbnueYofwSuFAT3USAhGjPrkxDdW9 ?

And which gpu is the best to try?

[italiandigger]

Hi, can anyone wrote here ranges for 67 Btc address 1BY8GQbnueYofwSuFAT3USAhGjPrkxDdW9 ?

And which gpu is the best to try?

Puzzle 67 range: 40000000000000000...7ffffffffffffffff
I think a 2080ti it could be a good beginning and at affordable price (around 400$)
Better of course a 3070ti or a 4090ti but they are 3-5 times more expensive and they consume more kilowatts.
Here you can find all puzzles details: https://privatekeys.pw/puzzles/bitcoin-puzzle-tx

Better to try with Puzzle 66 (the keyspace is smaller)  

[citb0in]

Hi, can anyone wrote here ranges for 67 Btc address 1BY8GQbnueYofwSuFAT3USAhGjPrkxDdW9 ?

And which gpu is the best to try?

Range Puzzle 67:
4 0000 0000 0000 0000 - 8 0000 0000 0000 0000

Total Keys:
73,786,976,294,838,206,464

Choose the most powerful GPU you can find and see what it's rate is. Then you can calculate to see how long it will take to scan the whole range  
Let's say you can get 4000 MKey/s. You would need 18446744074 seconds, that is about 307445734 minutes or 5124095 hours or 213503 days or  585 years.

Good luck

Choose the most powerful GPU you can find and see what it's rate is. Then you can calculate to see how long it will take to scan the whole range  

It's not necessary to scan the whole range as it's not necessary to buy all lottery tickets to win, if you are lucky (random or picking small random ranges) you can win the challenge.
When i was 18 y.o. with a single dollar I matched 12 results in a row of football matches and I won $5000, it could have been 13 results (the maximum) but one result changed at the last minute (I would have won $250000). And I wasn't a football expert, I wrote them at random. My father was shocked! He played for years without winning.
With money I bought my first 386 computer (2000$)
 

[citb0in]

Sure you can play lotto. That's why I said good luck

Puzzle 66 keyspaces (lottery tickets) already checked with cubitcrack (144 sessions):
(mostly 500 billion keys each, but recently i've started with 1500 billion keys each)

ciao amico mio,

thanks for sharing your list. Unfortunately I have no list to share, I'm sorried. I run occasionally a search, but it only lasts a few minutes, never more than 15-30min, I do this for learning purposes, to get to know the tools better and to understand how they work exactly. I doubt I'll ever get a hit with it I don't think I have a chance in finding #66 by simply brute-forcing the whole range. That's insane. However, I wish you good luck and all the best.

In lack of options the Team Black Miner will release ETH private key cracker tool for ethreum POW (Nvidia).

We charge 1% (zilliqa/ETC)

A tool already exists for finding ETH private keys and/or generating vanity addresses. What is different about yours that a user should allow you to take control of the program and mine 1 minute out of every hour?

Let's take as example this line of your list:

./cuBitCrack --keyspace 36e489ebe08e98a4f:3781708f6f44f71b0 13zb1hQbWVsc2S7ZTZnP2G4undNNpdh5so --out lottery.txt

the span of this range is 706,618,984,243,783,521
assuming that your brute-force keycracking tool achieves 1000 MKey/s it takes 706.618.984 seconds to scan this range. This is equivalent to 11.776.983 minutes or 196.283 hours or 8178,5 days or roughly said 22,4 years.
Now look at how many range slices you listed 

that's insane

Thank you very much for this.
In fact, the Lotto ticket is located where we did not enter. In the gaps. BTC
It took me a long time to find all the gaps.
So choose a ticket. It will take at least 5 years to find it - at least on my machine.

From the last update i've done other 10 sessions (1500 billions keys each).
I hope that other guys excited about solving puzzle 66 will partecipate with their checked keyspaces.
Together we can do in 1-2 years i presume.  
I've found the second computer to use keyhunt randomly to check the gaps (no matter if big, they should decrease in size over time).
