Vanity Pool is currently undergoing a big update. We are moving form BitcoinQT to Blockchain.info for our wallet services to speed things up. If anyone has unpaid work that they wish to be publicly available on the Pool, please check your work URL for the newest address.

Does this site work with compressed or uncompressed public keys?

For the miner it would be sufficient to use a counter as private key as the security of the resulting key has to lie entirely in the private key of the requesting party?

This site works with uncompressed keys.

Yes, the security of the key lies in the private key of the person making the request.

I think that I had trouble working all this out too, if you check my earlier posts here it may help, unfortunately I don't remember how it got worked out maybe someone more knowledgeable will help explain, from the FAQ you need an ECDSA public key which isn't the same as a Bitcoin address public key as it's made from a key pair using one you already have, the info on how to generate one & it's private key is somewhere but I don't see where to find it atm - maybe check the OP & the van gen faq or back posts here.

How would i request:    1klondike......  ?

by going to: https://vanitypool.appspot.com/newWork

& small case L is not possible, or upper case i or o so all caps isn't an option either, maybe 1KLoNDike or 1KLoNDiKE or 1kLondike - none of them really look right to me though.

ahh, thanks for the heads up. I tried the site, but keep getting told my public key is too short. i tried with 2 different 'receiving addresses', should i be grabbing my key from elsewhere?

Someone submitted an unsolvable Litecoin address a day or two ago (LGWL). I'm not sure how you usually handle these, but it should probably be removed from the list.

Thanks for the info. I contacted the person requesting it and cancelled the work.

Please note we are updating the server right now. The Pool might not be functioning for a bit.

Can you say me the and of the update?

Whops, forgot to unset that message. The server was running at the end of the day I originally posted that warning.

Hi @TP, Do asics work with this vanity address finding process? We have 340 MHash USB miners, now available for 0.18 btc.

You would need custom asics. Mining asics only do double SHA-256, while vanity mining also requires ECDSA math and RIPEMD-160, so they are not compatible. You could do FPGAs, but those would also require custom software.

Yes, the main pool is active.
does oclvanitygen support multiple gpus ? or do i need one instance per gpu?

I am not sure - ask samr7, the creator of oclvanitygen.

I don't think Anywho is solveable unless it's supposed to mean 1Anywho? Is it another coin besides Bitcoin? Coin that starts with "A" on their addresses?

Hmm, I guess you might be right. I will cancel the work and message the submitter about the refund.

If I wanted a 1followed by 7 character address how long would it take and how much would it cost?

Estimates are on front page of Vanity Pool:

Pattern length   Honest fee   Minimum fee
1-6   0.01   0.01
7   0.14   0.01
8   8.3   0.08
9   480   4.8
10   27862   278
11   1616015   16160

Since those include the starting 1, then you are looking at 8 character patterns - an honest price of about 8.3, minimum of 0.08. Precise price can vary per address (for example, patterns starting with 1 and late letter of the Bitcoin alphabet are more costly).

Hi

I haven't read the whole thread so apologies if I have missed something.

I have looked into vanity addresses but couldn't find a couple of bits of info.

If I wanted a 1followed by 7 character address how long would it take and how much would it cost?

Thanks
