All those address can be derived from the RMD hash of the address, example:

Address 13zb1hQbWVsc2S7ZTZnP2G4undNNpdh5so decoded in to Hexadecimal is:

0020d45a6a762535700ce9e0b216e31994335db8a5ee6612b2

But first byte for btc address is alway 00 and last 4 bytes are te checksum: ee6612b2

So the Real hash160 of the address 20d45a6a762535700ce9e0b216e31994335db8a5

Example with Dogecoin is almost the same, address D88gYxMEoumtZSJAC9mwa2EWfm6g3uocon

Decodes is 1e20d45a6a762535700ce9e0b216e31994335db8a50d861875

1e is the prefix for Doge, the checksum are the last 4 bytes: 0d861875

So the Real hash160 of the address 20d45a6a762535700ce9e0b216e31994335db8a5

So for almost all altcoin you only need the original rmd160 hash check the next image:



I recommend you to read Chapter 4. Keys, Addresses, Wallets

i wonder about privatekeys website

when i check for any addresss , i get the same addresses from different networks bitcoin gold , bitcoin cash ,,,etc
that has the same private key ?

and i wonder how is that possible without knowing the private key from the beginning ??

lets say for puzzle 66
13zb1hQbWVsc2S7ZTZnP2G4undNNpdh5so

Addresses with the same Private Key :

Thanks for the feedback
but no one was able to answer it
I'm looking for puplicKey not privKey
yes it is vanitySearch
but not the normal one
https://github.com/bojlahg/VanitySearchPublicKey

this allows you pupkeySearch
in a specific range

You can look here for what you seek : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/the-finderouter-a-bitcoin-recovery-tool-v0160-2022-09-19-5214021

Hi, need to find private key for bitcoin wallet. Part of this key is 35 characters, I know how to find other characters, is there a program for sorting characters with an indication of mandatory ones.
I would appreciate a tip on the bitcoin part

you are using the wrong software if you are looking for the puzzle, thats a vanity search and there is no range search, , try vanbitcracken and put your range to search
https://github.com/WanderingPhilosopher/VanBitCrackenRandom2

no the gpu find nothing only if i search with cpu can i find keys

-t 30  1000mk/s finds key after 10 sek
-gpu 10000mk/s find nothing after 1 hours

i thing the gpu engine is wrong or so
im search on rtx 4060

if i use bitcrack for searching i can search only on gpu and find keys
-gpu -t 0

it does actually, 8 core cpu searching 10 million key per seconde, you are searching with 5000 million key per seconde thats your gpu performence, so dont worry gpu search is working

Hello, I'm new here and have a question about

bojlahg/VanitySearchPublicKey.

if I search there I find only keys with use cpu
-gpu is displayed but does not find any keys
for example:

VanitySearchPK.exe -t 0 -gpu -sk 2000000000000000000000000000000000 -p 633cbe Find no keys but 5000mk/s            (0keys) 1 minute

VanitySearchPK.exe -t 1 -gpu -sk 2000000000000000000000000000000000 -p 633cbe find keys with 5600mk/s very bad (25keys) 1 minute

VanitySearchPK.exe -t 32 -sk 200000000000000000000000000000000 -p 633cbe find keys good but 1000mk/s                (200keys)1 minute

I believe that the program recognizes the GPU
but the gpu performance does nothing

can any help for this

I can't fix this  but I would be happy if someone who can do it would contact me.

Wow, Great words here! Yes be thankful for what you have. Not what you want.

Amazing reply digaran!

The first million bitcoins mined by Satoshi have their public keys revealed, million other coins are sitting in addresses with exposed public keys, but nobody is going to find them any time soon, this puzzle is the proof of that, when we can't even find a key with 32 first characters as 0s easily, how can one finds a key with 64 unknown hex characters?

It's best not to use an address with exposed public key for long term cold storage. That's it,  like when they say lock the doors before going to bed, not neccesarily a bad thing to do, after all there is no central bank to hold and keep bitcoins safe, you alone are responsible to keep them safe, now saying to not reuse addresses is a security advice, ignore it, nothing will happen, there is only a tiny percentage of probability of compromise.

Remember, before Satoshi launches bitcoin, he had asked several mathematicians and cryptography experts to test the security of public keys, they all gave thumbs up for launch.

But how whales work with it? Let's choose this address, for example https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/addresses/btc/bc1qgdjqv0av3q56jvd82tkdjpy7gdp9ut8tlqmgrpmv24sq90ecnvqqjwvw97
It has a lot of bitcoins, and has no outgoing transactions, so no one knows the public key. But how the owner can withdraw some of these bitcoins without revealing his public key? This is Bitfinex verified address, and they need to operate with this money, but this money just frozen on this address, because they cannot make outgoing transaction without revealing public key.

That's the best security precaution, think of public keys as actual keys of safe vaults, and think of hackers/ attackers as keysmith, given enough time and resources they can make a duplicate and open the vault, but if they never see the key, they can't duplicate it.

But maybe someday you have to make an outgoing transaction. So after this transaction you need to transfer a rest of your bitcoins to another address without any outgoing transactions to be sure that your public key is not revealed?

Post source code

Of course, I forgot my pills, now you mentioned it.
Can you prove it doesn't have trojan/virus? No? Then kindly stay silent.

See? I didn't jump at your throat, there have been many such newbie accounts posting a link for a closed source tool claiming their tool is better and faster.

Firstly, if a program is better than the others, why don't they keep it for themselves to have an advantage in finding the keys? Secondly, if they want to help others by sharing something useful, why not posting a link to the source? You can't be good and helping, at the same time denying people the right to take a look at your code, unless there is something suspicious going on.

Have you seen me physically  stopping people from using these malwares? Of course not, they are still free to use them, but if nobody warns them about it, they'd assume "it's safe, because if it wasn't, surely someone with a brain would have warned us about it."

If you post a script for example and say it does one thing that I want, but it also does something unwanted by me, if I'm a newbie and unsuspected, if nobody says anything, I'd assume it's perfectly safe and would run it unaware of the dangers and consequences.

Next time come here defending such people, you will see what a real jump at throats mean!😉

Why do you jump at people's throats so much? Do you have any frustration or do you simply think you are the owner of the absolute truth? Everyone has the right to use or recommend applications to others, without being offended by some like you. Maybe you should take your pills on time, so you don't go into fibrillation.

! Prove that PuzzleBTC contains viruses or trojans and then make claims !

Ok, lets bring a few virgins for that guy to make it up to him.
Anyone here knows how to twerk? Or do I have to take another deep breath and do the twerking myself?

You need to drink a glass of milk to wash the toxins away.😉

Take a deep breath man and relax ! There is no need to call somebody parasite even if it's clearly a scammer! Don't forget, this is a community, I don't see the point of being toxic in your comments!

Did I say something funny? Let the rest of us know, we need some laughter.

I'm still amazed about your tactic, "free application"? What, is there any application for brute forcing bitcoin keys which is not free and some idiots would pay to use it, that we didn't know of?
No? then STFU, parasite!
