VanitySearch (Yet another address prefix finder)

[TheArchaeologist]

what exactly do you need to search a pubkey for? what's the point?
let's say you have found a pubkey with funds, so?

I'm gonna answer this as I read your question, as in: what good would it do to know the public key anyway? In order to use the "Baby Step - Giant Step"  Algorithm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baby-step_giant-step) you need to have the public key. So that's why

really 256 x v100? that would be damn impressive ;-)

Yes that right. 256 x Tesla V100.
With the GPU kernel of kangaroo optimized for V100 we have a power of 0.5Tera group operation per second.

Personally We (me and zielar) are searching only for puzzle transactions, we have found 2 keys together with funds and of course, we got them !

what is puzzle transaction? sorry for all the questions, kind of new to it

search for btc puzzle on bitcoin forum...

in short someone produced a transaction where several btc are spread over 256 addresses
the first address has 1 bit private key
the secon 2 bit priv
the third 3 bit
...
the 120'th uses a priv key comprised of the lower 120 bit's
and so on until 256 bit

all leading bits are 0

it is surmised that this is as much a puzzle to solve as it is a way to see if the security of btc is compromised "suddenly and in a significant way" if the addresses all got cracked in a short time..

[Jean_Luc]

The puzzle is also detailed in the Kangaroo readme.

how many kW is it consuming per hour?

[Jean_Luc]

20? 150?

Power: ~94KW
For #115 it consumed 94*13*24 = 29.3 MWh and the prize was 1.15BTC (+1.15 BCH)

I don't know what you mean by "published" their pubK

PubK are only published if the adress has been used for an outgoing transaction. Of course ~ 80% of the adresses had an outgoing transaction, but for example the big wallets like 1Feex... has never had an outgoing transaction - therefore the pubK is not "published" on the blockchain.
Once again: my goal is not to find wallets with balance. My goal is to find lyrical prefixes.

Now I started something for such an "AI". Yes, it is nonlinear, but with a big dataset and epoches the AI may could crack the whole process, because it is still static, since A -> B. I took 50k pairs of random uncompressed adresses and splitted them into 2 cvs with input and output. I started 100k epoches. If it does not work it is ok, but it is worth a try.

You using neuronetwork ? I think neuro network is good idea for searc privkeys from pubkeys. Because system (privkey,pubkey) is static and with static energy. This is not dynamic stochastix system.

Wow... 1000 years of of 1000W coffee machine running 5minutes  per day ;-)
GPUs are in Poland?

[Jean_Luc]

Wow... 1000 years of of 1000W coffee machine running 5minutes  per day ;-)

And few hours of operation of the accelerator where I'm working and few minutes of operation of the LHC
However this value I gave is a overestimated because we got an unwanted interruption during the run due to a storm and when Zielar restarted the GPUs he forget a setting and GPU were not running at 100%. I also probably overestimated the power of the ~80 hosts which hosting GPUs and of the infrastructure.

GPUs are in Poland?

Yes

So probably a few seconds of planned LHC successor... Is yours as sensitive as LHC and also detects TGVs?

Yes

Coal-running GPUs ;-) It would be interesting to calculate how much CO2 was produced for it.

No, I'm not working in a collisioner but in a light source. We accelerate electron (6Gev) to produce hard Xrays.

Something like ~15/20tons of CO2 if considering that all coming from coal.

ok, cool, post your finding here :-)

please tell me where and how to register the path to the version of the CUDA I have an old version CUDA

If you are trying to update the code to go from 11.0 to one lesser like 10.0:
Located in the

Code:

VanitySearch.vcxproj

file:
https://github.com/JeanLucPons/VanitySearch/blob/master/VanitySearch.vcxproj

Line 100:

Code:

    <Import Project="$(VCTargetsPath)\BuildCustomizations\CUDA 11.0.props" />

and line 171:

Code:

<Import Project="$(VCTargetsPath)\BuildCustomizations\CUDA 11.0.targets" />

Bring up VanitySearch.vcxproj and do search for Cuda 11...just in case there may be more than those two above.

[zedderzed]

It produces such an error "GPUEngine: CudaGetDeviceCount CUDA driver version is insufficient for CUDA runti
me version 35" I have a video card gt550ti cuda 7.5

[philipma1957]

Has anyone put together (or started to put together) a list of CPUs / Video Cards & the speed you can get out of them.
I know it's a newer project and Jean_Luc is working VERY VERY hard on it so getting accurate numbers is going to be a moving target. But for now all we can do is look through the thread and see who is running what to get a general idea.
So far I have pulled from this thread:

no but i just tried my ryzen 5 3600 6 core so 12 threads
with -t 11 it gets 13,5 mk/s

@student
If you are looking for full addresses, do not enter in the list a part of them (for instance the 15 first char)
It will be faster to enter full addresses.
That's true that there is 2^96 priv key for an address and if you perform 2^96 key you will find a collision but that would also imply that you search for the whole address range, on the blockchain there is no 2^160 address with fund and it is not possible to have a file of 2^160 address.
So if you want to find a collision between 2 priv key that give the same address, consider using BTCCollider which would require "only" 2^80 operations to reach the collision.

Is it possible to specify prefix and seed?
