Topic: Darkcoin Vanity Address Generator (Read 1031 times)
I'm sure it will be popular and I would be interested in adapted versions for other alt coins.
nice tool, it should posted in darkcoin thread
is it possible to modify it for other altcoins as well

I'd like to present a standalone command line vanity address generator
called drkvanitygen.
There are plenty of quality tools to do this right now already. So why
use drkvanitygen? The main reason is that it is fast, more than an order
of magnitude faster than the official darkcoin client with the vanity
address patch applied. This is despite the fact that it runs on the
CPU and does not use OpenCL or CUDA. Drkvanitygen is also a bit more
user-friendly in that it provides feedback on its rate of progress and
how many keys it has checked.
Drkvanitygen is written in C, and is provided in source code form and
pre-built Win32 binaries. At present, drkvanitygen can be built on Linux,
and requires the openssl and pcre libraries.
drkvanitygen can generate regular darkcoin addresses
and testnet addresses.
drkvanitygen can search for exact prefixes or regular expression matches.
When searching for exact prefixes, drkvanitygen will ensure that the
prefix is possible, will provide a difficulty estimate, and will run
about 30% faster. Exact prefixes are case-sensitive by default, but
may be searched case-insensitively using the "-i" option. Regular
expression patterns follow the Perl-compatible regular expression
language.
The example below completed quicker than average, and took about 45 sec
to finish, using both cores of my aging Core 2 Duo E6600:
$ ./drkvanitygen 1Love
Difficulty: 4476342
[48165 K/s][total 2080000][Prob 37.2%][50% in 21.2s]
Pattern: 1Love
Address: 1LoveRg5t2NCDLUZh6Q8ixv74M5YGVxXaN
Privkey: 5JLUmjZiirgziDmWmNprPsNx8DYwfecUNk1FQXmDPaoKB36fX1o
Link to Pre-built Windows version https://www.dropbox.com/s/rovk650jwi4cfyz/DRKVanitygen.zip?dl=0
or you can compile the source yourself from the Github https://github.com/propulsions/DarkVanityGen
Let me know what you think
