I'm going to guess "no" since I'm pretty sure vanity address generation involves creating a bunch of addresses in the form of public/private key pairs, and the USB sticks are designed only for hashing block headers.

I might be wrong though.

   no, you were right asic miner cant use with vanitygen but maybe FPGA can do it but slow.

Curious if this is possible, if so, how?
