I know there are some that have said a safe way to buy vanity gen from a site that had a pool running "mining" BTC addresses. I really don't like idea of others being any part of my private key.

I would make it myself or not have it. But I'm to safe most likely.

The webisites that generate vanity address on a public key (hex) are very safe... I will explan you why... You generate a normal address and a private key that keep on a safe place, and you must give only the public key (in hex format)... website will generate an address with vanity choosen by you and a part of the private key, then you will generate the only final private key by console, -c "your private key kept on safe place" "part of key generated from website"... Result: you have a vanity address and a private key generated by yourself and no one knows

You do vanity "mining" with a GPU. If you have an ASIC, you could put the income generated as bounty, but i think that Avalon is quite obsolete, so you might as well just give the vanity gen a try with whatever you have on your PC.

Thanks for reply. I've already tried to do with my GPU but it is no so fast.... So, if I buy it, I can't use with vanitygen? And with oclvanitygen? Is compatible?

You need compare GPU's here is a list: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Vanitygen But basically the newer and better... the faster (not always there are some other things). But new and fast GPU normally will be faster.

A big thing is how long of vanity address your "mining". Depending on length and if exact it could be a very long time, or very short time.

Best bet is selling the obsolete miner, then using the BTC to put up a bounty to get the vanity address. Afaik you can't roll priv keys with ASIC, but maybe someone figured out a way to do it, if its even possible.

It was not when i tried it though and if it is, it should say it does in the readme, however google says nope.

Bah unless you do it like how you would setup a cold wallet on an offline computer, i'm not sure how it could be secure in the first place. Vanity address are more for show than for normal use. Maybe its just me, but otherwise you can never be sure the privkey was never exposed.
