HI,
Not that it is really going to make that much difference
A database is not 'magic' even with compression there can be a significant overhead in just storing the data, (record structure,pointers,indexes,disk headers etc)
Even if you don't need to store 16k of data per page……. just the secret key…..
we all know (hopefully) that the public address can be re-generated from the secret key via an algorithm otherwise what is the point…..
A better way is going to be extract all addresses from block chain, sort them( plus date first used), then use a stat algo to see if there is any grouping, finally generate private keys see if it is in the 'range' of the grouping .. if so.. store for later. ( you require the blockchain rather than generate on your own kit as this would not highlight platform/implementation weaknesses in the systems)

Topic: [FAKE] The database of all of the bitcoin private keys (Read 13587 times)
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.

Exactly.
904625697166532776746648320380374280100293470930272690489102837043110636675 pages is impossible. Let's do the math to put it in perspective: assuming 99.9999% compression, at 16 kB of input data per page, you'd need 1.44 sexdecillion 1 YB (yottabyte) hard drives to store the data.
Therefore, we can conclude that each page is being generated by an algorithm, not from a database.
Therefore, it's most likely an attempt at Bitcoin theft.
Who owns these addresses ?
Who owns any number? For example, who owns the number 983456928496583673940384?
That's what private keys are - just very long numbers.
Ownership of a bitcoin address is the result of the fact that out of a very, very, very large set of possible private keys, you have picked one in particular.
The public key (and hence the bitcoin address) is very easy to calculate from the private key, but the reverse is not true. Indeed, the only known way to get the private key of a given bitcoin address is to try *all* private keys until you find one that matches this particular bitcoin address. This requires enough computing power to boil the Sun as the now famous graphic illustrates.
Because only you know what that private key is, no one else can generate a valid transaction with the coins sent to that public address.
Put another way, what you actually "own" is the knowledge of the particular private key can be used to sign transactions for your bitcoin address. It's like knowing the location of a treasure buried underground on an unimaginably vast plains. Everyone has "access" to the entire prairie, but without knowing the exact spot, no one can access your treasure, because it would take many millions of years of exhaustive digging.

I don't agree that this is FAKE. It is true. All the data is true. And a database doesn't have to store all the data if it can just display the data which the user requests. Besides, in a database not all the fields can be indexed and searched.
It isn't a database. Using your (very loose) definition Google or Yahoo is a database of the entire internet (though they are closer to being so than your website). You're just using a sensationalist title to drive traffic to your website.
If we can benifit from this site, it is that this site increases the visiting users for site btc123.com, and in some extend advertises the new block explorer : b.btc123.com

Looks like lots of people don't understand how large the bitcoin key space is... 
BadBear, thanks for quoting those posts, I can sleep tight now!
Not sure if you're a bad bear or a good bear

I hope my addresses dont make it to those lists
what the hell is this site, and how does it relate to the security of my bitcoins?
I'm not sure what the purpose of that site is, unless it's a joke. It isn't a database (that would be impossible), it's generating the pages in response to queries. So possibly an attempt at a scam, as in you look for your private key, and the holder of the list uses the generated pages to narrow down the possible addresses that have actually been used (there are 2^160 possible addresses, or 1,461,501,637,330,902,918,203,684,832,716,283,019,655,932,542,976). Since people have trouble putting that in perspective, there are only 2^63 grains of sand on all the beaches of Earth.
The total number of bitcoin addresses in use is so much smaller than the amount of possible addresses, that something like this is completely and utterly useless, and it would also be trivial to expand the number of possible addresses in the future. I laughed when I saw that website, cause I just know people who don't know the math are furiously putting page numbers hoping to find one
. You'll likely witness the heat death of the universe before that happens. Here's some good reading about address collisions/exhaustion.

1 petabyte is 1015 bytes.
There are 2160 possible BTC addresses, each of which is 160 bits == 20 bytes long.
So to store all of them you need 2160x20 bytes, which is 29,230,032,746,618,058,364,073,696,654,325,660 petabytes.
Suppose each of the 7 billion people in the world has 1000 unspent addresses. On average you would need to try more than 1035 addresses to find each spendable one. Suppose you can check a million addresses per second, this is going to take you more than 1021 years.
If everyone in the world is trying to crack this at the same time, it will still take around 1012 years. And when someone finally cracks it, after paying the electricity bill for 1012 years, they might be disappointed to find that the key unlocks just 0.05 BTC from the Bitcoin Faucet. Even if it's ten million bitcoins, it's not going to pay the electricity bill for 7 billion computers running for a trillion years.
In short, don't worry about it.

If every person on Earth makes ten addresses per second for 20 years (2x1018 total addresses), then the probability that two of these addresses collide is about 1.57x10-12.
A committed individual or organization could easily aquire network storage in the Petabytes. I think that would be more than enough to get a sizable operation started.

Bear in mind, we are not looking for a single address among the clouds here. We are looking for -any- address containing BTC.
Suppose each of the 7 billion people in the world has 1000 unspent addresses. On average you would need to try more than 1035 addresses to find each spendable one. Suppose you can check a million addresses per second, this is going to take you more than 1021 years.

Is this a late April Fools Joke? 
It's not joke as I used to copy some private key to test out. It shows the same address. At this moment, number is no important but management as one day, It will be cracked as tools are designed to be cracked.
Whatever the author does, He just tells us if you don't follow the suggestions, then your precious may be stolen silently.

And we also write on the page very CLEAR that :

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

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!

You are an absolute idiot and dont understand anything crypto.
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.
So I can sleep now.
On the other hand, no panic means no cheap Bitcoins this time, sigh.

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.

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.

There are some keys which show some transactions. I imported one and it once had 2 BTC in it
another good joke along with OP Not so.
This one is the first one from the first page:

If you want your bitcoin to be safe, never expose your private key in anywhere, otherwise you might lose all of your money!!!

Bitcoin private keys are just some huge numbers (256 bits) and any 256-bit number between "0x1" and "0xFFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFE BAAE DCE6 AF48 A03B BFD2 5E8C D036 4141" is a valid private key.
To those who want to get all private keys, it is extremely easy.
Take a notebook, write down "1", "2", "3", up to "115792089237316195423570985008687907852837564279074904382605163141518161494337".
Edit: fix a typo.

as for all of these sites, the keys shown are generated when the page is requested by a visitor.
There is no "database" of generated keys and there is no way to get the key of a specific bitcoin address (since that would require the whole database of private keys up front).

I agree with your explanation, but the total pages(904625697166532776746648320380374280100293470930272690489102837043110636675) are still amazing!

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.
Well... if they're indeed private keys, then its not secure. Am I missing something here?
If you go down to the beach and pick up a hand full of sand, does that 'handful' represent every grain of sand in the world or the universe?
The thing that makes private keys so 'secure' is the shear number of them(in a given set), but by the same measure, if you are very very lucky then somewhere in your handful of sand is potentially a valuable 'private key' belonging to an active address holding coin. (you just need to find which one)
Which is why it is good practice to continually 'rotate' your addresses, since it adds to the entropy of 'publicity known' addresses an attacker would need to check his 'sand' against.( if it was a brute force attack)
(yep ok very simplistic but it gives a target for thought)

So the only way the poster's claim is wrong is that either the site does not have UNIQUE keys (keys are duplicated every few pages) or they're not valid keys after all.
I don't know if the site really list all private keys out.
But as I have said earlier, it is extremely easy to generate all possible valid private keys by just going from 1, 2, 3, onwards.
So, there are nothing special about the site, even if it does list all private keys out.
How close is this number to all Bitcoin addresses that can ever be generated?
Not really. Though the private keys are 256 bits, there are only 2^160 addresses.
That's 49 decimal digits; how come this guy claims to have generated addresses in quantity of 78 decimal digits?
For a valid private key, it is always associated with a bitcoin address.
But, there are many different valid private keys that can lead to the same address.
Total number of valid bitcoin private key: slightly less than 2^256
Code:
115792089237316195423570985008687907852837564279074904382605163141518161494337
Code:
1461501637330902918203684832716283019655932542976
That's 78 decimal digits. So the only way the poster's claim is wrong is that either the site does not have UNIQUE keys (keys are duplicated every few pages) or they're not valid keys after all.
I am trying to find out if the poster tried to generate ALL Bitcoin addresses that can ever be generated. And if yes, how well did he succeed?
No even close!
One of my favorite infographics can show you.
Now that is impressive, god damn.

My guess is that the creator only spam generated a few thousand address and fake the amount of address. Its practically not possible to bruteforce a private key.

The site lists 128 keys per page. Multiplying that to the number of pages it claims gives the following number:

Basically its just randomly generated privkeys..
No reason to get all fucky.

gweedo said the OP "was causing FUD" but didn't explain.
I'm not sure what is going on, but you are correct, it is never secure to expose your private key(s)

He is trying cause FUD by saying bitcoin is insecure, when in reality is impossible, or close to it, that you could generate bitcoin private keys of all address. But since we have newbies who don't understand that yet, it is FUD, on top of the china news which is actually hurting bitcoin.
Ok so what did this guy actually do, he took simple strings like "1" hashed them into bitcoin addresses (I am simplifying it) instead of using a random generator which is what most bitcoin wallets use. Created a lot of addresses and faked the page number total.
Wow! All of my private keys are that database!

You are missing the core of bitcoin. I am not a coder, but I trust it. I hope the core dev can explain this in an easy way.
In simple words: Whoever has a private key has access to the Bitcoins attached to that private key (and related public address).
So:
If those private keys belong to the poster, it is not secure for the poster.
If those private keys belong to some other people, it is not secure for those other people.
Is it complicated to understand or am I wrong here?
P.S. : Probably all of those addresses have 0 balances and 0 transactions, so I'm not getting into 'theft' part. What I'm concerned about is how this database came into possession of someone on the internet if it is not his own.

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

thanks for satoshi nakamoto's keys
im rich bitch!

All addresses are showing 0 transactions on blockchain. Maybe someone setup these many addresses on his own using an automated tool?
None of my private keys are in that list so you lied LOL
No he is causing FUD, don't fall for it.
You talking to yourself? Scam artist.
Is this a late April Fools Joke?
No he is causing FUD, don't fall for it.
I have a question about the database. One can choose a random private key from the database, or use bitcoin-QT to get a private key, which way is more secure?
You talking to yourself? Scam artist.
I see, even the hero member do not feel the bitcoin spirit.
