i see on first page that for 6 character it cost around 0.007 - 0.008 ?
Starting with 1L makes it much easier to find. It gives me 22 minutes for 50% chance.

If you post a public key part, I'll make one for you. You can tip shorena a donation Smiley

for example...
You have reinvented escrow, very nice!
One suggestion though: get a shorter prefix, like 1Time. It's 30 times faster to find, you don't want it to take hours if the 15 minutes for 50% turns out to be unlucky.

True
Code:
12o67
was instantaneous even with the Part Public Key I used - I thought for the example I'd use something a little more identifiable with my own account instead of just

Code:
12345 or
1234567
1abcd
1abcdef

With a random generator I could have said

Code:
1TX4s4
1HGYti
1htbLL
19meDb
1bHcXM
1Wxn8J
17vYSO

which would leave the client clueless as to who was doing the actual mining.  I feel with a shortened moniker this would allay any concerns about a self escrowing scam being committed...

Had a think about the farming work out for week(s) at a time work:  You ( shorena ) are contacted by a person wanting work that will take one or more weeks to solve.  You contact me to see if I am interested and I send you a Part Public key of mine which you generate a key with the prefix (something memorable ) for example... 1TL2o67 or 12o67TL (the latter I estimate to take about 15 mins at 11MKeys/sec to reach 50% mark)  You advise the person requesting work of this wallet address and they pay the full amount into that wallet.

You advise me of the wallet address and I confirm payment via http://blockchain.info/address/12o67TLetcETC and begin mining with the details provided using the third parties Part Public Key.  When I find the required solution, I send the found Part Private Key to you ( shorena ), you forward to the client who confirms it's validity.  You then send me the part Part Private Key for the 1TL2o67 / 12o67TL wallet and from those funds I then send you a small token agreed to previously.

I am wondering which card are you using to get such long vanities within a short time?

Is it the Nvidia GTX TITAN X 12GB DDR5?

I am looking forward to buy one card as I'm willing to find this prefix by myself: 1kingalt1

I've got two AMD Radon R9 200 / HD 7900 series cards with a combined search power of roughly 50Mkeys/sec

Heutenamos was asking about some phrases and shorena passed on the work, so just thought I'd ask.  I'm not about to start under cutting shorena, so if requests were to be sent to him and then they are sent out from there, I do have a suggestion for shorena farming longer work out if he's not able to do week ++ at a time.

I'm just wondering if it's because I have a text file with a few (!) wallet to search for that the expected time taken between percentages vary after 50%, 75% etc?
No, I search 25000 keywords, the percentage is just based on the total chance.
I found a 6 character address yesterday in about half a second. I tried again, and it showed 20 minutes for 50% chance. It's just a matter of being lucky to have the right string in the random addresses quickly.

-snip-
It'd take ~ 24hours to get to the dreaded 50%, then it's something like another 24 hours to get to 75%, another 24 hours to 80% and so on.  Not sure why it does that.
24 hours is the time required for 50% chance to hit it. If you stop and restart your search at any possible time, it is still 24 hours for 50%. If you don't find it the first 24 hours, it is still 24 hours for 50% chance, but calculating from the start of your search, you have a 75% chance to find it in 2 days. You can be lucky or unlucky to find it.

I would say you are always lucky as you can never reach 100% anyway. There is no progress towards the goal, similar to mining bitcoin. It could take forever to find an address starting with 1btc its just not likely. I had simple addresses go to 98% (vanitygen does not show higher percentages) and even some more difficult ones.

No, that's not what I'm talking about - at the bottom of the values

Code:
[25.10 Mkey/s][total 394801446912][Prob 0.0%][50% in 1.2y]

When it ticks over to 50.01 % it becomes an expected 75% and the time expected is about the same as for 50%.

I've just watched the time take 98% from finding

Code:
1Brisbane

to finding

Code:
1nahtnam

and the time 50% , 75%, 80%, expected were similar even though the percent was getting smaller.

Most people think there's some kind of "luck" involved when they find a solution early.  I wouldn't like to go to the Casino with that faith that "luck" will be on their side.

*edit* and I've seen it more than once get to 100% and the percentage value is removed and it just keeps going until a solution is found, then the value for the next solution is presented.

I am looking forward to buy one card as I'm willing to find this prefix by myself: 1kingalt1

You have to use upper-case Lima - ie "L" and India - "I" can only be lower case "i" , so you'd be after

1kingaLt1 - I would suggest you try 1KingALT1 which looks more ascetic.
GMTA! I was typing the exact same thing before I read the next page.

Note that 1king takes about 40 times longer than 1King. This holds for every combination: starting with upper case is much faster.

Case sensitive it's take ~ 8 days at near 50Mkeys/s to reach 50% then another 8 days to reach 75% ... as above.

Case sensitive 16 days at 25Mkeys/s Case insensitive about 24 hours.

In both cases, this is to get to 50% so can be MUCH longer.

As to price, same thing, I'll go with shorena 's suggestion and offer a 10% cut.
