Great work with this guide @1miau. I have translated it into Polish on my local board. I hope you don't mind it.

[TUTORIAL] Spersonalizowany adres Bitcoina

Did you think about VanitySearch tutorial? I didn't test it but according to Jean_Luc it's up to 4 times faster.

feel free to post your created public key here  Smiley
Did you mean Bitcoin address? I can't see any reason to share the public key.
Yes, technically that's right but I had people before sending me not only their P2PKH address (+ private key included) and so I thought it would avoid problems here.  Cheesy
I'll just modify the message to make it more clear.

[3] If you press Windows+R, it will just open the "run" dialogue box.
Just add "type cmd and press enter" to complete the instruction.

Normally it should display cmd by default and just clicking ok / press enter are sufficient. I'll add it.

[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".
  • Then you can directly start either vanitygen or oclvanitygen commands without extra directory selection command(s).
  • Example (for verbose or "displayed output"): oclvanitygen.exe -v "1test"

    Took literally 2 seconds for oclvanitygen.
Thanks for the advice, very useful and much faster. I will include it in my OP when I have some free time.

Maybe You Should Add This In Your Thread Wink
Good idea. I will try it later and link your post. Thanks for sharing.  Smiley



I am even more curious as to whether the addresses generated in this way may conflict or are not recognized?
What do you mean exactly? The addresses can be used like normal addresses (P2PKH "Legacy" format), assumed you have created them in a secure way. Vanity addresses are customized addresses, functions are the same.



Hmm.. The thread title is quite misleading. Every bitcoin address is unique, as far as I know. I was curious and clicked on the thread to read and yes, my assumption is correct - it's about vanity addresses alright.
Yeah, maybe customized fits better.  Cheesy

It's interesting. I can see if I can generate a special BTC address. I am even more curious as to whether the addresses generated in this way may conflict or are not recognized?

Request for an edit for #3 and additional option for #4:

[3] If you press Windows+R, it will just open the "run" dialogue box.
Just add "type cmd and press enter" to complete the instruction.

This looks very cool, I wrote a Chinese post according to this. I hope more people will use personalized BTC addresses with specific characters.

Many thanks for explaining the topic of vanity addresses for the Chinese community! If you have some free time and want to expand your topic you can also add the different steps of the creation process. So all the details will be available in Chinese.

Hello!

Nice translation to Indonesian and great that you have created a personal address.  Smiley

To post signed addresses you can do it here in English, I think normally the Mods prefer signed messages in English to restore accounts.

I've quoted and verified it. But better post it again hereSmiley


Do we have a procedure for Linux users? or this is only possible for those who have only Windows OS?
Otherwise great effort you put up there to simplify the whole process. I could make one if I get to use windows soon.
Another user (o_solo_miner) is working out a complete version for Linux, I think he is still busy but when he is ready he will publish it.

Try this:

1. Clone the repo:
Code:
git clone https://github.com/samr7/vanitygen.git

2. Go to its folder and compile it:
Code:
cd vanitygen
make all

3. Run it!
Code:
.\vanitygen

WARNING
User Velkro is a scammer!
Velkro's post (2 posts above this one) promotes his scamsite in his signature. I think it's a big mistake not to show trust on this board, that's why he loves posting in threads like this one, hoping to steal more Bitcoins from naive users.
Check his red trust for Reference links to at least several Bitcoins worth of theft.


NEVER trust a private key created by someone else!
Thanks for your warning, I completely agree with you.

Another reason to show trust to people from outside of the forum (not logged in) and when they click on your reference link show them all trust ratings. Therefore, here are the reference links:
