Oh Lauda was the one of the OG's of bitcointalk and he didn't really passed away in real life (at least I don't think he did) but his forum account was terminated by theymos. Wink

I don't think the account was ever terminated. I think Lauda left voluntarily. All one has to do is change the password to xxxxxxxxxx-some-random-long-password, and no one else will be able to log into it. (obviously, from a secure device.)

Literally one line above your quote stated we aren't targeting people who know how to do it
I am far from being an expert in generating vanity addresses.
All I did was downloading the Vanitysearch open source software and typing few commands, it was as simple as it gets, and it took me only a few minutes to finish everything.
Someone could easily make one click script that would do this job even quicker, maybe something similar was already created but I am not aware of this.

We wanted everyone to be able to use our product not just the technically inclined.
I appreciate you are trying to make something easier to use, but I am not sure how many kids and grandmas really need vanity addresses.

@dkbit98 I would love it if you tried the service in full fashion and then came back here to report the process, test out 1dkbit, use a burner email we dont care maybe next time you need something like 1Lauda you can know and trust our service and save a lot of time.
I will think about testing your service and report later with my feedback, but like I said before in my case it will not save any time and in reality I would probably need more time for creating new email address.
It could be faster if I want to create address with more characters, but then I would have to pay more for this, and I don't want to do that just for fan.
So far I didn't found a way how to generate address using your website for free.

Ona side note are you referencing user Lauda I was unaware they passed away. Regardless of whom your referring to I send my condolences.

I don't think this was true, during my testing.

When my child whom is under 10 years old was able to navigate and utilize the service we knew we where onto something.
For what it's worth: I don't think I've ever had any complaints from users who messed up. But it happened once or twice that someone forgot their part private key after they gave me the public key.

After this post, "Lauda" will cease to exist. By that I mean: The faceless virtual persona named "Lauda", who exists only in cypherspace, will become detached from its "soul", and left as an empty shell. "Lauda" has abruptly reached end-of-life.

Again, the service isn't ready but at this point right now feedback is crucial as we near launch. We strive to be the definitive service in splitkey generation.
I don't think that sending private keys via email is a good option, especially when we know most people are using one email address and it's most likely gmail.
Just for fun I tested the pricing using various characters and I think price is fair (few bucks only) if I pick up to six characters, but it grows much higher adding just one more character.
I have to be honest and say that I honestly don't know why would I use 1splitkey when I can just generate my own vanity address for free with my computer.

Last year I did something similar, just for Luada's funeral:

We are not targeting guys like you that already know how to do it but if you lack power please feel free to use our service when it's officially announced.
We accept BTC and LN ,(implemented and tested working)

Literally one line above your quote stated we aren't targeting people who know how to do it,
At this current point in time there is only 3 legitimate services relevant to vanity splitkey generation
LoyceV's service,
bitcoin-uni.de's service
and our's.
all the rest are scams or not yet scams as they do not provide split key generation options at all.
We still haven't zero 'ed in on pricing but are getting close.
We do not log base keys (since we use rekey options we don't even see them in cli, we have learned switching up base keys generally yields results quicker, some basekeys simply dont yield results even on low difficulty wallets ),
All we have logged is the following.
Pubkey
Wallet Address
Partial Priv
and email
without a base key, the only flaws we can consider but won't are end users security practices.
even if someone's email where hacked or phished there isnt much that can be done with the partial priv and wallet besides speculating. unless they imported the wallet to some online source and it too was comprimised.
If end user truly kept the partial priv offline and lack of basekey brute forcing is to a moot end.
we tried to create a zero liability system by design.
We should be launching a finished product and announcing it on may 5th-8th'ish as our spamscore will be green light.
In concerns to the pricing  our competitors start charging $2 after 3 digits,  We don't start charging $2 until around the 7th digit or a certain difficulty, so it may feel expensive but its not.
bitcoin-uni.de 1ABCDEFGH=$432         -c $130.41,   1ABCDEFGHi -Cannot even submit this order 11111111 with -c enabled $26.91 and an email/refund apologizing that it cant be done.
 1splitkey.com 1ABCDEFGH=$117.50     -c $58.70,    1ABCDEFGHi -  $6818.10 and will deliver around 1636~ hours later. (66 days) 11111111 without -c enabled (since it cant be done that way) = $166799.90 we will get it done, it might take a year or 2 but we have ways to accomplish this weather it be on vast.ai rentals or A100 instances or an agreement with lambda labs

The difference in our services is we've done the research we had a viable product even before bitcoin-uni.de came out but saw many issues and challenges to overcome in our beta product.
We wanted everyone to be able to use our product not just the technically inclined.
When my child whom is under 10 years old was able to navigate and utilize the service we knew we where onto something. However my wife ,not so much. One's in 3rd grade the other is perusing a MBA.
One thing we are trying to factor in and solve is a proper workflow for assumptive behavior online.  

@dkbit98 I would love it if you tried the service in full fashion and then came back here to report the process, test out 1dkbit, use a burner email we dont care maybe next time you need something like 1Lauda you can know and trust our service and save a lot of time. (not that its time consuming or anything if you know how)
The neat thing about our service its all automated.
Ona side note are you referencing user Lauda I was unaware they passed away. Regardless of whom your referring to I send my condolences.

reality is that if you're too long on one address it goes to aml blacklist. And then you best option is black exchange rate . So i don't see much sense in all this stuff anymore.

I had never heard of vanity addresses until WhyFhy introduced me to them. The process I went through to create the public/private key was a breeze thanks to his instructions. I have zero experience in coding and/or brute forcing, so this was a neat project to be a part of. At no point was I asked for the private key. In my experience, no compromise in security. Now i've got a Vanity Address to show off and share my experience.

Thank you for vectorizing the logo and churching it up , some of the work you asked for was eye opening as well such as the difficulty differences.

We are building something special, still working on a difficulty calculator like no other so we can offer up to 7 digits free
We could use some help solving this here as we have discovered JL's VS difficulty calculator is inaccurate at some points/pivots/bits.
problem is our difficulty calculator has to be more accurate than even vanitysearch's, so our quotes will be accurate so we dont operate at loss or email you guys saying we cant do it.
We run about 16,000 MK/S with -sp applied (so far)
We run a combination eth mining rigs to achieve this with proprietary software assigning workers, logging speeds and an api callback server relaying said data.
We've essentially created a real vanity searching mining pool(workaround) ,
We plan to use smi or wmic to pull card data and catagorize speeds against collected data such as DaveF's list and auto configure arguments.
and relay to website for time estimates. even a simple 7digit case insensitive can be done in under a few mins, It's like not hitting a mining share for few mins.
Our quotes are still broken, until we solve for a few x's on difficulty calculations via pivots/bits
We have a few other bugs to work out.
emails being marked as spam, or our personal smtp server not sending email in the first place thinking we are sending spam
We do not want to quote on wallet length like all the competition does. Our process if fully automated.
This has been a work in progress for about 16 months. Some of you tried our google form based beta. We took all the feedback with grace and went back to the drawing board.

Hello

I try to understand big numbers I mean, thousand of years and so on.

Please write mi in words how many years it is:

1.055e+06y


One million and fifty five thousand years.

By that time some interesting things will happen:

Betelgeuse, one of the top ten brightest stars in our sky, will have exploded in a supernova. It will be so bright that it will be visible on Earth in day time. [1]

A couple of Uranus moons, Desdemona and Cressida, will probably have already collided with each other. [2]

inlovewiththedj will probably have obtained his vanity address. [3]

The simpler method is to just move the decimal point depending on the value of "e+number".

From your example:
1.055(e+06 = move by 6 decimal places)
10.55=  move by 1 place
105.5=  move by 2 places
1055.=  move by 3 places
10550.=  move by 4 places
105500.=  move by 5 places
1055000.=  move by 6 places

Am I correct with  6.02311e+07y?

6.02311    (e+07 = move by 7 decimal places)
60.2311      =  move by 1 place
602.311      =  move by 2 places
6023.11      =  move by 3 places
60231.1      =  move by 4 places
602311.      =  move by 5 places
6023110.      =  move by 6 places
60231100.      =  move by 7 places

You can split such string into some pieces: "1.055", "e+06", "y". Then, "e+number" means "10^number", so in this case it is "1000000", you have six zeros, because of "+06". So, it means 1055000 years, because you have multiplication of "1.055" by one million, and that "y" in the end means "years".

------
Take the RTX 3070 for example.
  Bitcrack gives out 800mk.
Vanitysearch, gives out 1600-1700mk.
So why not use vanitysearch for search, if it is twice as fast?
Therefore, I asked about the possibility of searching in a fixed range, in vanitysearch.
You can read up, I've answered this before.

When vanity search lands on a single private key, it actually checks that single key against 6 possibilities, because it is checking Point + endo1 + endo2 + symmetries. While vanitysearch modded is faster than bitcrack, the precompiled version is checking more points per single private key which is why the speed seems a lot faster.

this explains why 1 of 6 will be valid if split gen right?


Yes. But this is due only to the way the programs we use to reassemble the pieces for the final private key work.

Let s (Q = sG) be the secret private key (the public key). Only one person knows 's'.

Then he sends only Q to another person, who run a "split gen" program.

Usually "split gen" works like this:

it computes only (s+1)G = Q + G, (s+2)G = Q + 2G, …, (s+k)G = Q + kG = P

until it gets a public key P with a particular address.

The program knows only k (the partial private key).

Then you need to compute k' (k' G = P):

k' = (s + k)  mod n.


Now suppose you get P in this way: - (Q + kG) = P

then in order to get from the partial private key k the correct final private key k' = (-s -k) mod n
you need to know how k was obtained (exploiting the symmetry).


If you get P in this way: λ(Q + kG) = P

(exploiting the endomorphism) the correct final private k' will be: λ*(s + k) mod n   and so on.
I'm quoting this for research purposes.
