Farewell, Leo
Take common passwords from the Internet, convert them to WIF (line by line), import them in Bitcoin Core, check for transactions (these are there, but addresses are empty)
What's a common password? You probably mean hacked passwords which were in sale? Some of these look completely random.

and earn some free money if someone was dumb enough to actually hold any coins in any of these keys?
But, this isn't earning, but theft. Even if there was an idiot, who used a brainwallet whose password wasn't strong enough, it wouldn't mean you can take their money. For the same reason you won't steal them if they'd forgotten their wallet right next to you.

Could you explain exactly how you convert the passwords into WIF format? Because I can't find any used addresses with those passwords you provided with a simple single or double SHA256 like brainwalletx does.

Also, could you give an example of an address that you found that had coins at some point in time? I suspect that your way of connecting which address correspond to which password is flawed.

I use Python script for that:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python3

import base58
import hashlib
import sys

with open("input.txt","r") as f:
content = f.readlines()

content = [x.strip() for x in content]

o = open('output.txt','w')

for line in content:
a=line.encode('utf-8')
b=hashlib.sha256(a).digest()
c=b.hex()
d='80'+c
f=bytes.fromhex(d)
g=base58.b58encode_check(f)
h=g+" 0\n"
o.write(h)
i=hashlib.sha256(b).digest()
j=i.hex()
k='80'+j
l=bytes.fromhex(k)
m=base58.b58encode_check(l)
n=m+" 0\n"
o.write(n)

Run under WSL1 on Windows.

Yes, I was doing more research and something is not right with the connection between phrase and address.

I am still in research about the topic.

Now I have managed to get these phrases:

I guess I expected some luck to find any balance, but didn't.

The thing is.. especially since it was noticed how unsafe brainwallets are, most probably others have done this job already... years ago (this is usually one of the big problems in reinventing the wheel).

Those are brainwallet and they were very common in bitcoin's early days. No one uses them anymore since they are unsafe and it doesn't matter how many time you hash the password.
Someone already found more than 18k used addresses. You can check his topic here for more details:
Collection of 18.509 found and used Brainwallets

There are many bots monitoring these addresses 24/24 to steal any coins they receive. This why you probably will never find any brain wallet with a balance.

I have one 8 GB wallet and it does have very many transactions.

Volume of my experimental wallets is 78 GB in size.

I didn't found any address that have any positive balance. Excluding prepared fake wallet with ~150 BTC.

@nc50lc I didn't known the name "brainwallet" but that's right! I am trying brainwallets.

@pooya87 I guess I expected some luck to find any balance, but didn't. I have my job, I do that in free time.

So what's the point of all this effort that you put into this work? Is it to get lucky and earn some free money if someone was dumb enough to actually hold any coins in any of these keys?
I assure you that you would have earned a lot more money if you had spent your time more constructively.

Ah, so this is what this other thread of yours is all about: Export private keys that had movement - Bitcoin Core

You basically reinvented "Brainwallet" if you're not aware of the term.

"Like attempting to number the waves on the snore of a limitless sea"

A poetic description of all addresses. So beautiful, nearly numberless in possibility, yet eventually boring.

Theory:

Take common passwords from the Internet, convert them to WIF (line by line), import them in Bitcoin Core, check for transactions (these are there, but addresses are empty),
export transactions, mess around with this export to get back commonly used words/texts as private key sources (that had transactions).

Effect:

From 500 000 passwords I've got (SHA256 once and later twice which gives 1M passwords) ca 200 passwords that have been used as source for private key (later converted to WIF).
Each line represents text which converted to private key/WIF (sha256 once and twice) would give address with transactions. So these are "passwords" which people used for their generation of addresses.

These are the passwords:
