How many of you use Bitcoin Vanity Addresses ?

They are the addresses that can be customized .
For example, My BTC Address is :  1APoorVr8yRZZSM9DP76VCgrmkd54jHdkR

Show off Your Cool BTC Addresses below !!!
i used to use vanity addresses, but then someone told me how using one address over and over again is really unsafe. so im using coinbase rn, but they dont support vanity addresses. would be cool though.

What's really concerning with what you just said is the fact that you were worried about security therefore you use the absolute worst secured kind of wallet. An online wallet. They have access to your private keys just an FYI.

Yes using the same address isn't recommended. Basically because then anyone in the world can easily see where you're sending and receiving money to/from.

I would suggest you look into safer methods of bitcoin storage... Now. Before it's too late and you're left holding the proverbial bag.

Mine is 17788W1nEqenL5DqLjf9c4P4R89GfYnXr3

There is no "i" so uses 1 to replace.

There is "i" actually just not "I".

It helps because then there is only one option for "i" so when you go with the case insensitivity option that one letter can only be a lowercase "i".

Mine is 1MeReL3yZ3rPNcDMjVqk7KXGgZCqkbF8df

Pretty easy to generate  Grin
I would soon make my own address and post here, but I have a question, do we get private key and all the keys associated with the addresses ? Just confused a little bit.

It's pretty simple... Use vanitygen (a program to create vanity addresses). Just run it without any options, and it'll show you the help-instructions... Follow these instructions, and 'mine' for a vanity address.

The program will show you the private key and the associated address... The address is not that important, you can always recreate it using your private key. Just make sure you write down your private key, because if you lose it, you lose access to your funds Wink
Oh, and also, never give out your private key... Whoever has controll of the key, has controll of the funds...

I think there was a similar thread on 'awesome' Bitcoin Addresses, however it wasn't about random vanity addresses. These addresses are usually just created for personal sake and are definitely far from what I'd call 'awesome'.

It took me only an hour to create this address in which First 6 letters were of my name. It generates addresses faster when the case sensitivity is turned off.
Depending on the hardware it might take time but with every consecutive letter it becomes much longer.

vanity address is pretty cool, but I think I can't make one of them
Anyone can, just don't go for more than 5-6 letters and it shouldn't take too long.

afraid of the waiting process on PC, it may take a long time for my PC  Grin
Leave it over night and it will be fine.

congratulation dude. i think you're the lucky one hahaha
can u tell me the tips? i courious  Roll Eyes

edit: you don't get these addresses by chance, you make them.

there are no tips. but steps to take
- you choose a couple of characters (case sensitive) that you want your bitcoin address to start with
- put it in the code (command line) the link for the code is in comment #3
- wait until the code finds you your custom address (it takes a long time if you have a slow PC or set a lot of characters)

It seem cool to have one. Actually I was thinking of getting myself a vanity address I just don't know where to get one.
I'd like to see my name on my address and it also can be handy to show proof that the address is really mine since I have my name on it. Cheesy
Google is your best friend, with a good cpu you should have your own address in a few hours

Or go ask Shorena for it, he has vanity gen service where he will generate one for you with a cost Wink
Though i completely forgot the link to topic, go ask him directly Smiley

I would much rather go for a straight address created without Vanity, because in my opinion the Vanity generated addresses are less secure. If I used one, I would not store large amounts of coins in them, but that is only my opinion. The debate is open for people to discuss this in more detail and prove me wrong. ^smile^

I like the conservative approach to the safe keeping of my money, and would not risk it.

I have used it before and made some good ones, but now a days you can only get first few letters like 4 for free, if you want further then you have to pay some good amount of money to get it.

You can follow the post here :  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/vanitygen-vanity-bitcoin-address-generatorminer-v022-25804
Or if you want I could make it for you. (Just PM me !)
Whatever you do, don't let someone "make you" a bitcoin address.  If they generate it for you then that means they know the private key.  The address will be worthless to you if anyone but you knows the private key.

It matters how it is generated. If he give out just private key, then yes it is not recommended. But if he mine with specific public key then he generate just private key part which is only usefull to the owner of the public key. For more info I recomnend to read:

Vanitygen: Vanity bitcoin address generator/miner [v0.22]
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/vanitygen-vanity-bitcoin-address-generatorminer-v022-25804

Thanks for clarifying that. I wasn't trying to say there was no way of doing it, just trying to warn people. I've seen people selling vanity addresses that they have completely generated themselves.

My coolest address is 1Chris4GEoLLjdh4juFXGwY7snaazuxvKb

It's my vanity paper wallet that I made on an Ubuntu Live USB. It took me a long time to figure out how to mak that securely!

It seem cool to have one. Actually I was thinking of getting myself a vanity address I just don't know where to get one.
I'd like to see my name on my address and it also can be handy to show proof that the address is really mine since I have my name on it. Cheesy

I could easily do this for you.

Here's what you need to do:

1. Generate a hex format public key (on bitaddress.org.. Click address details).

2. Send it to me. (via pm)

3. I use the pub key and create a vanity address with your name (let me know if you want it case sensitive or not).


This is called split key vanity gen. It's a method where someone else does the work but still doesn't kno your private key. Don't take my word for it. Look it up!

Never trust those website that will make you an address. They'll have your private key. Always do split key vanity gen.
