Ok here is the guide:
Ok, now send some BTC to that address to demonstrate how to burn BTC.  Smiley

Prefix 1miau*HitLer
How about digaran*HitLer, since you are the one who has supported the far-right trolls and their enablers?
Or maybe your lack of knowledge about German history is the much bigger problem here?
Oh, I forgot, you are a troll  Smiley



So that's called wild card "*", however I haven't seen any tool that can find chars other than prefix and suffix. The checksum can't be randomly manipulated, it would require so much computation power. But what we have right now is prefix and suffix as demonstrated above. Hope it's useful. 😉
Try to get a cookie tonight (it's at least something since you are not eligible anymore to receive a weekly reward for your troll bullshit).  Cheesy


that's enough troll spam in my topic  Wink

Code:
1miauxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxHitLerKJYjJK
Or 1miauis*HitLer, which would result in the following address:
Code:
1miauisxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxHitLerNncRJa

Or 1TAGperweek*Doctorsorders, which would result in:
Code:
1TAGperweekxxxxxxDoctorsordersPQ1tZK

Thanks for giving me the opportunity for the translation,
Hello, dear Chilwell  Smiley

Many thanks for providing a translation here, it's a very technical topic but I believe it can be interesting at least to know about the existence of such customized "vanity addresses".
I've added your translation to my list:

Nigeria (Naija)Chilwell[Guide]How you go create your customized Bitcoin-Address (vanitygen)–stepbystep



Your guide is not complete 1meow, there are options to also generate vanity checksum for the address, it would be the last 6 characters of the address, you could also select any char position, something like second char to be hand picked, 5th char, 11th char etc, you could also set prefix and a few chars of checksum for the search.
There are various options for everything. If you want to start doing something useful, feel free to create an additional guide about it.

I successfully generated address via CPU but I want to generate it via GPU. Followed the steps but then I got this error.
Try VanitySearch, Vanitygen may be too outdated for your new generation RTX Nvidia GPU.

Wait wait, there is still something wrong there. I can't download windows executable files from that URL. Somehow, I found a valid url on Bitcoin wiki and changed version from 0.20 to 0.22 (the latest one I assume) - https://github.com/downloads/samr7/vanitygen/vanitygen-0.21-win.zip
Yeah, I've added the right link for download accordingly.

Otherwise, every step works correctly, tried and generated wallet successfully. Danke sehr Smiley
Nice to hear, I hope you found some nice vanity addresses.  Smiley

I successfully generated address via CPU but I want to generate it via GPU. Followed the steps but then I got this error.
I've tried it as well, I don't get such an error but doesn't work for me as well because it depends on your device. Maybe that's a good question for the original topic and someon can help you for your question.
The original topic is in Development and Technical Discussion, so someone probably has a valid answer.  Smiley

I was looking for customized bitcoin-address generation through this website and just right now discovered this article, it's phenomenal but there is slight correction from me:
When I clicked on original address to download from github, https://github.com/samr7/vanitygen/downloads showed me 404 error page. As it seems, correct url at the moment is without the addition of /downloads, i.e. https://github.com/samr7/vanitygen is a right one that directly connects you to page.
Yes, you are right. Obviously, GitHub has changed a bit and my current link is not supported anymore...
I've added it in my OP and replaced the link.
Many thanks for pointing it out.  Smiley

If you need a customized SegWit-Address generator, you might also be interested in VanitySearch from Jean_Luc.

[4] You can totally disregard #3 and the directory selection by opening the command prompt directly from where Vanitygen is stored.
  • Browse to the folder where vanitygen/oclvanitygen is.
  • Press CTRL+SHIFT+RightClick on an empty space within the folder (not on the executable/files), click "Open command window here".
Quoting myself here for an update:
New Windows10 builds replaced the "Open command window here" with "Open PowerShell window here",
it'll work just fine but needs a slight modification in the command to launch/open executables.
Additionally, now holding Shift will trigger that right-click menu instead of Ctrl+Shift.

After opening the PowerShell directly from the directory of Vanitygen/search, start the command with .\
Example:
Code:
.\vanitysearch.exe -stop 1test
Added to my OP accordingly:

1. Go to the folder where vanitygen/oclvanitygen is stored.
2. Using Command Prompt: Press CTRL+SHIFT+Right Click on an empty space within the folder (not on the executable/files), click "Open command window here". Now the Command Prompt opens. [1]
2. Using Power Shell: Press SHIFT+Right Click on an empty space within the folder (not on the executable/files), click "Open PowerShell window here". Now PowerShell (Command Prompt) opens. [2]
3. You can start directly to enter the details you want, like described in step 5.

Question, Is it possible to get a private key of other btc address holding huge btc by using the program searching the btc public address?
Here's an analogy, or straight comparison to lottery rather:

  • The chance that you'll hit a jackpot of a 6-digit 42-balls lottery is 1 out of 42^6
    = 1 out of 5,489,031,744
  • The chance that Vanitysearch/gen will hit the private key of your target address is 1 out of 2^256 (minus one Duodecillion approx)
    = 1 out of 115,792,089,237,316,195,423,570,985,008,687,907,852,837,564,279,074,904,382,605,163,141,518,161,494,336

Even though a lottery only takes place 1-7 times a week while tools like this can search millions of keys per second,
the difference is still a lot compared to your chances of hitting a jackpot, just look at the numbers.

I used the private key instead of the address for the "chance formula" because you can't search for the address private key without generating a random/sequence of private key first.

Here's a real-world example:


With a speed of 9.12 million keys per second, I'll be able to "hack" the funds of address 1BitcoinEaterAddressDontSendf59kuE in about 3.52425e+33 years.
That's equivalent to 3,524,250,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years  Smiley

Question, Is it possible to get a private key of other btc address holding huge btc by using the program searching the btc public address?

simple answer is that if it were possible someone would have done it already.

what these programs do is that they choose a random key, convert it to public key then hash it and finally encode it to see if the starting characters are the same. so it is somewhat similar to brute forcing to find a collision. as the size of the collision increases it demands more work and this work grows exponentially not linearly. the full address requires checking at least 128-bits which will take until the end of the universe with the current total computing power in the world.

Nice guide to look for btc address that has similar to what you are looking for and that is very interesting to know but I should be more careful in using btc address with trademark especially usersname because of privacy reason. BTC wallets usually generates another btc address when doing transactions for the change for security purposes. Anyway, if this only for some sort of fun or purpose be good.
