How to get a pretty Bitcoin address?

in bitcoin •  7 years ago 

Good day everyone! Is it possible instead of random combination of numbers in bitcoin address to get something ‘pretty’?

Vanitygen - is the tool for generation of such addresses

How it works:
$ ./vanitygen 1Shifr Difficulty: 4476342 Pattern: 1Crypt Address: 1CryptSLRHtKNngkdXEeobR76b53LETtpyT Privkey: 5J4XJRyLVgzbXEgh8VNi4qovLzxRftzMd8a18KkdXv4EqAwX3tS

This address generates in 3 minutes. But if you add one symbol, it will take 3 hours; if you add one more, it will take a whole week.

By the way, first symbol of valet can be changed too. It sets at the configuration file ./src/base58.h in parameter: «PUBKEY_ADDRESS»
