Vanity address will help but it wont come close to being entire address. If you look at http://bitcoinvanitygen.com/ they only go to 9 and it get's expensive.

I would suggest making some cards with public address, maybe a QR code of it easy to scan. Again all of that is public don't carry your private key on you.

I never recommend using an online vanitygen if they don't offer split-key generation.

First letter will always be '1' for a vanity address because it can't create multisig address now. So you don't need to remember it. So next 6-8 letters will be related to a word you won't forget. So now you already know first 7-9 letters. Remaining 10-12 letter can be studies easily like you study a phone number.

Vanity address also contain the word you want in middle or at the end of the address but creating one which have the word at first is recommended for easy_remembering.

However, to reduce the hassle, I suggested to use 'Firstbits'. It will help you to remember the address easily.

Please show me how to create a Bitcoin address that it's easy to remember

Thanks !

1) Develop your memory power.
2) Create a vanity address.
3) Study it.

Alternatively, you can use a website such as Goocha to memorize an address - Firstbits.

try this website
http://bitcoinvanitygen.com/

easy and safe. Up to 6 free letters

Not safe. It will only be safe if it offer split-key generation. Online vanity address generator isn't secure. It is like telling others to create a bank account for you and sharing all the credentials with them. So if they want to, they can access it.

agreed.

why do you think it's safe @bitdonator?

a lot of people got hacked because of fake online wallets. No reason to trust 3rd party on this.

Looking for campaign manager? Contact icopress!

When you do it for real (not just playing), please make sure you generate the addresses in a safe (and offline) environment.
Because there you will have the private key(s) too, which have to be "for your eyes only".

(I this that this warning is useful, as long as some came with the idea to try websites that may generate address.)

have you ever tried bitaddress.org to create vanity address(bitcoins)? Wink

You can't create vanity address with Bitaddress.org AFAIK. They helps to split a public key and to combine private key parts.

nope! Can creat vanity address jusr try it -_- they have some featues.. I think you've seen this feature only from that website.
//sry for bad english

They don't create them there. It's a "helper" feature to be used with Vanity Pool, for example.

Try this:

Code:

vanitygen64.exe -o doge.tx -X 30 DGrumpy

Quote from: needmoney on March 19, 2015, 07:46:46 AM

Should we use ''-o'' before ''> doge.txt'' ?

No, "> doge.txt" is enough. It is a cmd command which puts all outputs in the file you name.

I recommend you to use ">> doge.tx" because it adds outputs to file instead of overwriting. Using "> doge.tx" overwrites which make your datas in that file be gone.

Code:

vanitygen64.exe -X 30 DGrumpy >> doge.tx

Hi all,

I'm messing around with creating vanity addresses, just for fun. I've been trying both bitcoin & dogecoin addresses, but I can't get this darn thing to work, I'm hoping someone could help me.

Please see this image:

Please explain exactly what string I would need to use to make the results be written to "doge.txt" file.

I have tried everything for the past half an hour but can't get it to work and write the results to this file. Half the time I'm getting an unexpected string error, others it's just ignoring it.

I've tried several things like appending "-o doge.txt" and "-o " and so on, literally hundreds of different strings, expiremented with placement etc, but nothing is working?

If somebody could copy the exact string I used in the image and add the "-o" string where necessary, I'd be forever grateful.

Thanks
