hi nomachine, doing a nice 250 300 but it is single core version is there a multicore version out
or can we edit this to do that , thanks mate for sharing.

That link no longer exists. I barely managed to find the original pollard_kangaroo.txt on some Russian site. But it is deprecated for Python 2.x. I updated to 3.x and it's still slow, but if you want to play, here you go.

Hi there,

i am playing around with kangaroo and i am not sure if it's working correctly. Why is it saying "Kangaroos:  0 2^-inf"?
Also, whats the meaning of HT Max/Min/...? Would be great if someone could explain it to me. I am running kangaroo in client/server mode with server command: ./kangaroo -w save.work -wsplit -wi 600 -o result.txt -d 24 -s in.txt

Here is an example of one of the workfiles, as it's saved every 10minutes there are severall workfiles now.

Do you merge them for example once a day and only keep the merged file or do we need the save.workTIMESTAMP too?

Thanks a lot Smiley

if you have alternate formula for adjust with mod p, apply and check for get acurate result in pubkey

Would you plz be specific, like solve for what? What is expected result conditions? How result should look like, can explain how the successful result should be some how
Above Dec calculate with mod P 2 digit less, same all Dec figures taken to create pubkey
Substraction formula original ecc with original mod P
Adjust mod P to 2 digit less for get correct pubkey as mention in pubkey result

In the 30+ minutes that I wasted hammering (and subsequently trashing) a reply to this, I just updated the pkarith script to spit out the correct end points... took me just two minutes and 2 lines of code change. https://gist.github.com/ZenulAbidin/e8687d9e16189c99d192e97d37e71dbe

See how more effectively and faster I can implement stuff when I have all the info I need, clearly (emphasis on that), beforehand?

I can only work with information I have at hand (without guessing random stuff). Nowhere was it said that you had to divide max value by 32 and add that to start value to get the end value... take a look back at them yourself.

Otherwise you get stuff like a broken Kangaroo-256 with a borked hashtable lookup function.

There wouldn't have even been a flamewar if I had that info. Instead I got "0.01325 to 0.0625" which I understood to mean that the zones themselves are the start and end points. With this info, making an assumption about division at that stage would've been a guess.

And none of this was resolved until Counselor explained this important point a few posts up.


Hello.
  I read the topic from the end and saw this script and discussion.
I checked how it works, but no matches are found when searching for public keys with the ranges that go in the same block in the keyhunt.
Do the public keys in the output of this script match the ranges?

It is the same person or group which solve 120 bit.

So it is not kangaroo and not bsgs.

They must know something which we do not know.
The questions is -> what kind of math they use.   And second questions : I'm afraid BTC is not secure any more.

MergeWork: destination argument missing = you are missing the 3rd argument.

If you are trying to merge 2 different work files, you have to tell it what to save it as; merge file1 file2 file3 = merge file1 and file2 and save it as file3
after merge result file have 15mb, but! work file 6gb each other
Yeah I don’t know. The winfo says that one file is only 9 MB.

MergeWork: destination argument missing = you are missing the 3rd argument.

If you are trying to merge 2 different work files, you have to tell it what to save it as; merge file1 file2 file3 = merge file1 and file2 and save it as file3

Two things you should never abandon: Family & BTC
May 14, 2023, 09:56:16 PM

Anyway to answer your PM I'm 80% certain about the range. I created the wallet years ago manually and was dumb enough to use it!!

That said, I think I prefer searching for it myself. If you would like to help with the setup, where it's best to rent GPUs, what version of Kangaroo to use, etc happy to pay a fee. I hope you understand, it's too much BTC to just give away the public key on a forum!

Thanks!!
Yeah, somehow I doubt it, being a newbie years ago knowing how to manually generate a very low range key and somehow depositing a large amount in it and then after years now you remembered that you have these coins , yet the funny thing is that you have the public key not the private key, having the public key could mean that you have spent from the address, so the address has an exposed p in a low range, one could use all public keys with balance on blockchain and use kangaroo to find your imaginary key, but we all know there is no such a key and nobody would manually generate low range key to deposit and then forgets the key. Lol

You're implying that he's lying?
Do you know what i should say to you?
Do you?

I agree with you loool

@WanderingPhilospher it seems that I can only write 1 PM every hour, sorry. So that's not going to work.

Understood.

You’ll have to use JLPs version. Using 256 GPUs, it solved a 110 bit key in under 3 days.

So 128 GPUs should solve it in around 4.5 days, 64 GPUs should solve it in around 9 days.

I’m not the one to ask about renting GPUs as far as best prices because I rarely rent any and only rented my first one about a week ago.

Hello,

How long does it take to find a key in the 2^110 range? I know for this challenge it was found on 2020-05-30? But 3 years past and surely this range can be searched much quicker now? Can someone give me a time estimate and hardware if we were to search realistically this range? I am asking because I might have an old address where the key could be in that range...but not sure. And I don't want to spend thousands on hardware without knowing approx. how log it twill take to search the range with Kangaroo.

Thanks!!!

Honestly, it all depends on your hardware.

With my new mod/speed increase, I could solve a 110-bit range key, using 64 GPUs in less than 3 days.

Obviously if you use more GPUs, you can solve it quicker, if you have less than it would be longer.

I would help, depending on how much btc is in your wallet. I couldn't help unless I could reimburse my costs, plus a little extra.

If you want to throw some cash at it, let me know. DM and we can discuss and work out specifics.

I am not sure how you perform elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) calculations on a GPU as CUDA GPUs do not currently support 128-bit integers. Could you please explain your implementation, preferably with some code?
First page, link to GitHub, go look at the code.

This program has already solved 2 keys, at 109 and 114 bits.
  2 steps folding 512bits to 256bits reduction using 64 bits digits. According to the document, I found out that this is not the secp256K1 algorithm. I want to implement GPU calculation in Python. Do you have any sample code?
So are you saying that if somebody wanted to find the private key of a known bitcoin public key, then this program will not work?!
