Damn now I'm exposed Cheesy

the whole point of me posting this publicly is exactly to let such people know this is not the way to generate their addresses.
Now I have a question:
Is it possible to find collisions like this using B6 even if someone never generated an address with this method but we could find their private keys?
I even posted this on rico666 collision thread but he was rude and deleted my post.

I don't see why not. Either way you are using the 99 digits to create the private key so... this could work with any address. I hope no one tried something else like 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000002

Couldn't these addresses still be encrypted under BIP38?

If you're generating addresses using B6 aren't you just basically inputting 99 numbers ranging from 0-5? That doesn't seem like enough entropy to be safe but maybe I'm just a newb with understanding what the real chances are. Oh or maybe they did something like 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000001 etc. That would be pretty stupid if someone did, although I suppose someone in the entire world may have tried it. I would say trying easy numbers like this are probably how you found some addresses, correct?

Oh:

Was this Satoshi's address?

I just found 1 collision with the first one I tried. I found your method. Also please note, this is the same as making your online banking password "1" so whoever is actively using this is pretty nuts. It was just used in May!

If you really can do it (which i doubt) please continue until you find an address with some coins on it and then share your find. I've personally made at least a hundred addresses, some of which I didn't really care about because they were disposable. You can create probably 2 addresses every second if you click fast enough, so chances of finding one with coins in this haystack is as low as winning a lottery.

if I reveal the method which I found them then you will be able to get them as well but I used B6 method to find them.

This would imply that Bitcoin and basically almost the whole crypto ecosystem is broken. Please stop this nonsense. PM me the alleged *method*.

No sh*t sister Cheesy

I wasn't born yesterday, not that I don't trust you but the fact is that I am unable to find more, I will not even tell this to Satoshi himself, but I'll give you a hint.
I inserted random numbers 99 times to generate them, completely by accident. I think it's time for everyone to dump their unsecured bitcoins then eh?
The only coins if I ever find if belongs to Satoshi then I will share them with 10 people each 1BTC and will keep 40 for my self, OK maybe I run a few nodes with a few of them Cheesy

Please stop snapping at me like this I have a weak heart Cheesy

The only way I really believe you have a collision, is if you can show 2 different private keys that both lead to the same address.

Well, there are two ways of this happening:
1) Person B generates the same privkey as Person A.
2) Person B generated a different privkey which hashes to the same address as that of Person A.

It is extremely hard to prove the first one, and somewhat hard to prove the second one. The person A would have to come forward with the private key(s).

1) All of them are empty and unused for a long period of time. You are not stealing anything from anyone.
2) Signing a staked message from those addresses proves nothing. They could be yours to begin with.
3) The chance of finding a collision is absurdly low, let alone 7 collisions. This leads me to believe that this thread is pure bullshit.

Please elaborate on the steps that you've taken which have led to "these collisions".

I need anyone owning these addresses to stop using them because I know their private keys, just stop using them, I will never steal a satoshi from them I'm just letting you know.

Code:

-----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----
ImHash in 06/03/2017 I have found the private key of the address which I am signing this message with, and I do not own this address and shall not take any amount from it.
-----BEGIN SIGNATURE-----

I will sign messages with every and each one of them if needed.
