[FAKE] The database of all of the bitcoin private keys

[BitCoinDream]

I want to share you something amazing - The whole database of bitcoin private key: http://key.btc123.com/1

You can find all of the bitcoin private keys in the database. No joke, all of the priavte keys are in the database. You may want to try to find some valuable address here, but I would say that it will be as hard as to search a needle in the sea.  

This database can't show the total amount of bitcoin private keys, but it shows the total pages - 904625697166532776746648320380374280100293470930272690489102837043110636675 pages totally. Still an amazing number!!!

I still think bitcoin is strong and secure. What about you?

So, this is the chinese version of directory.io ?

It is interesting to see how scammers come up with new idea every day. But u r a layman scammer. Come up with some original idea

The author removed the private key search function to avoid to be considered as a scammer. Don't expose your private key publicly, your bitcoin will be safe.

I can still see a search option in http://key.btc123.com/. One should be careful. Its a honey trap.

That option is searched by page, not private key. You can go through any pages if you want.

That I can do by directly changing the URL. It seems like that option is for private key... but not too sure as I dont understand Chinese.

Yes, you can do it either way.

Nothing to worry about!

Of course, this is a database of all possible outcomes of private key strings. A few lines of computer code can generate that in minutes. It's so simple. Nothing new.

Similarly, one can also generate all possible outcomes of public keys quite easily.

For a computer programmer/developer, this stuff is the easiest.

The real achievement is that  


Example:

If debit card pin codes are 6 digits long then one can easily generate and publish all the pin codes of all the debit cards in the world in minutes i.e. by generating the all digits from 000000-999999 and doing that is so much easy. But real part is finding out which pin belongs to which debit card.

Similarly finding a match between a Bitcoin private-key and its public-key is next to impossible!

Even if the pages of keys are addressable directly via the URL, use of something like Google Analytics might give the site owner an inkling of which pages a user's private key was on.

I personally wouldn't go near it.

[solex]

Here's a whole load of private keys, one after another...

[jonald_fyookball]

move along...nothing to see here.

[franky1]

this has already been been discussed months ago

here is the original databese http://directory.io/

and here is the reddit thread where the its shown as a prank 4 months ago
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1ruk0z/dont_panic_directoryio_thing_is_fake/

Also, the first one on the list is fake: 5HpHagT65TZzG1PH3CSu63k8DbpvD8s5ip4nEB3kEsreAbuatmU is not a valid private key but is listed next to a valid public key

http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1ruk0z/dont_panic_directoryio_thing_is_fake/cdr18tp

and here is the owner admitting to the prank/joke

I'm the owner of directory.io. This isn't an attempt at a scam. The first entry isn't "fake". It is the a private key with the value of 0. The next private key is 1, after that comes 2 etc.

The original thread has not been deleted. It is right here: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1rua34/all_bitcoin_private_keys_leaked/

All of these keys (apart from 0) are valid. It is simply a joke. Remember when you've been told that it is almost impossible to generate a key-pair identical to somebody elses? This is a visual representation of that improbability. Look how many pages there are!

The original thread covered the fact this was a joke pretty well. No need to pretend this is a scam.

let this die as its a 4 month old prank, not a threat

[Joshuar]

This is fake and not even remotely amusing.

[gagalady]

As far  I   checked It, It  isn't real private keys? They are faked? If I'm wrong, correct me with facts.

I think it is a joke. pls do not believe it .

[sgk]

So I can sleep now.

On the other hand, no panic means no cheap Bitcoins this time, sigh.

[crazy_rabbit]

WTF is this? Who owns these addresses and who is posting them on open internet?

This database owner's purpose is to prove that bitcoin is secure, public, strong and transparency. That's it. If you know bitcoin deeply, you will get the answer.

This is the bitcoin philosophy - transparency but secure even the nowadays bank system can't make it.

That is why we are Bitcoiners.

If my wallet somehow produces a new private key that is "near the top" of the public database, then how is that secure?

It's not. But the chance of that happening is about the same as me hiding a grain of sand somewhere on planet earth, and you finding it on the first grain of sand you pick up to check. So, sleep tight. Your bitcoin is safe.

You are an absolute idiot and dont understand anything crypto.

You can find all of the bitcoin private keys in the database.

Wow! My keys are there!
And in your web-logs also
Take your server logs and get my bitcoins!

[cr1776]

Is this a late April Fools Joke? 

Or innumeracy. :-)

[Nicolas Dorier]

Do the math :

If they store 1 bytes per page, they need
8,22752E+62 PETA Byte to store the whole database.

This is a scam, and whatever key you put in their input textbox surely recorded.

[Soros Shorts]

I am pretty sure once you enter a real private key into that text box at the top of the page and submit the form back to the server your private key will be stored in some database.

That is inevitable ...i was thinking about running an infinite loop on their site as i dont see any captcha

[nkocevar]

And the majority of wallets all contain 0 transactions... You got me all excited for nothing

It is not the scam. Just a black humor to prove how bitcoin is secured by Mathematics.

The search text input is for searching Page Number ONLY.
We have cancelled the private search text input in case people think that we will record the private key people entered.
And we also write on the page very CLEAR that :

再次警示: 永远不要在任何地方暴露或者搜索自己的私钥！

This Chinese sentence means : You should NEVER expose or search your private key at any circumstance at any time.

Many people learned the philosophy of bitcoin after seeing this page, and they say, at first they are worried, but after seeing the page number, they can put their heart into their stomach and go to sleep peacefully. They say:  yeah my private key is just in these pages, just take it if you can find it.

Pretty interesting and amazing, isn't it?
