OK. So i attempted using the -X 48 flag and for the prefix I did Light and it just showed the help list of the tags. I'm using oclvanitygen. It isn't working.
Alphabetically "Light" is past the range of possible lightcoin (network 48) addresses. Valid addresses are generally in the range: LKDxGDJ-LiZZFKc7
You could search case insensitive, since "LiGHT" is still valid.
Code:
D:\Bitcoin\vanitygen-0.22-win>vanitygen -X48 -i Lightco
Difficulty: 1138380
Pattern: Lightco
Address: LiGHTcoirUn9XjtBqZWGyTf4o91RGerLZQ
Difficulty: 1138380
Pattern: Lightco
Address: LiGHTcoirUn9XjtBqZWGyTf4o91RGerLZQ
I use flags
Code:
vanitygen -i-X48 Light
pause
pause
But I just see this:
Code:
C:\DIRECTORY>vanitygen -i-X48 Light

Can someone explain the issue?
EDIT: Problem resolved. Space was missing between -i and -X48
