It shouldn't take years. At approx. 600 Kkey/s I can find 34 addresses with nine digit runs using

Code:

vanitygen64 -k -r -o filename.txt 1[\d]{8}

Maybe you can use those numbers to figure out your time.

I'm running at 3.1Kkey/s, like I said, I'm using a very old PC, I will probably run it on a different machine and see how that goes.

So it should take you about 5 and a half minutes per address with a 9 digit run. That's not terrible. Just let it run and walk away for a while.
Drop it back to searching for 8 digits and you should be able to find about 1 every minute.

I have left it for the past half an hour now and there is no file, do I have to create it first for the address to be stored in or will it be made when an address is found?

So far it says I have searched 10 million addresses

@ 10million, you should have found 7 or 8 by now. That's odd.
There is no need to create the file as it will be created as required. You don't see anything else on the screen?

I see nothing on the screen, I will try search for 4 numbers just to see if I get an address

EDIT: I have just searched for 2 numbers and it comes up on the screen but no file is created

Works fine for me:

Code:

vanitygen64.exe -k -o SAMKUSH -r ^[\d]{11}

Code:

Pattern: [\d]{11}
Address: 17YTH2Q71386649479wnWtTEF3NJ3aK9a2

The '^' doesnt seem to work for me either though.

Thank you very much for your help, I think I have got it to work now. My only other question is do you know how many addresses I will have to search to have 8,9 10 digits in a row etc. to reach 50%.

I have vanitygen running on my pc and I was wondering if there was a way I could search for something like the first 8 characters must be a number but any number is ok. I can only see an option to search for an exact number or a set of characters.

This is very easy. Vanity gen uses regular expressions. Just start VanityGen and type this at the command line:

Code:

vanitygen64 -r 1[\d]{8}

I like this method! It is much more concise than what I showed you. Still you may get a result which is not at the beginning of the address. Also you can save the output to a file and use the -k switch so it will continue generating addresses of the specified format.

Code:

vanitygen64 -k -r -o filename.txt 1[\d]{8}

Use ctrl-c to stop the program.

The problem I am having right now is that when I use -r it does not estimate a time to reach 50%. The pc I'm using is old so I would need that to know if I'm wasting my time on an address that would take years to find.

Is there a calculation I could use to work out how long or is there an easier way?

Shoot because I put the leading 1 combined with {8} it is looking for a 9 number sequence beginning with 1
change it to

Code:

vanitygen64 -k -r -o filename.txt 1[\d]{7}

for 8 numbers
or even

Code:

vanitygen64 -k -r -o filename.txt 1[\d]{6}

for 7 numbers if it still takes too long.

You should move this to beginners and help section. See link at the bottom left for move topic

You have to use regex so use the -r switch but it doesn't work with OCL so you will lose speed.
This will find occurrences of exactly 8 numbers in a row but it will appear anywhere in the address

Code:

vanitygen -r [1-9]{8}

You could try a leading one like this to get the beginning of the address

Code:

vanitygen -r 1[1-9]{7}

but that will not always show up at the beginning.

I think the ^ character represents the start of a string but I can't seem to get it to cooperate.

Code:

vanitygen -r ^[1-9]{8}

Thank you for your help, I will try this out and see if it works.

I have vanitygen running on my pc and I was wondering if there was a way I could search for something like the first 8 characters must be a number but any number is ok. I can only see an option to search for an exact number or a set of characters.

You should move this to beginners and help section. See link at the bottom left for move topic

You have to use regex so use the -r switch but it doesn't work with OCL so you will lose speed.
This will find occurrences of exactly 8 numbers in a row but it will appear anywhere in the address

Code:

vanitygen -r [1-9]{8}
