vanity onion addresses

[rebroad]

Has anyone found a way to create a vanity onion address for use with a bitcoin node?

I've found plenty of generic onion vanity generators, but somehow the files created aren't useable by bitcoind. It's probably a minor tweak needed, but I've not managed to work out how to do it yet. Has anyone?

you can find a solution on opensource.com ,,, here is an extract :To configure a vanity onion address, you need to generate a new private key to match a custom hostname.

Two applications that you can use for generating .onion addresses are eschalot for v2 addresses and mkp224o for v3 addresses.

Eschalot is a Tor hidden service name generator. It allows you to produce a (partially) customized vanity .onion address using a Kodi nox brute-force method. Eschalot is distributed in source form under the BSD license and should compile on any Unix or Linux system.

mkp224o is a vanity address generator for ed25519 .onion services that's available on GitHub with the CC0 1.0 Universal license. It generates vanity 56-character onion addresses.

I think these would be correct links for the two tools, correct me if I'm wrong:

mkp224o => https://github.com/cathugger/mkp224o

You should speak to BitcoinFX he has custom names for his public nodes.

v2 address no longer supported by Bitcoin Core (and most updated software which use Tor). Meanwhile v3 address for his node isn't vanity onion address. Even so, he might know how to do it, but don't bother configure his node to use vanity v3 onion address.

Thanks I was not aware of this change thanks for the heads up
