holy shit you are retarded

>>30063735
yes people are doing this as we speak. Sell now.

>>30063735
>You're bound to find a few wallets worth the effort eventually right?
no you wont. fucking retard.

> Why is no one doing this?
because its not probable you will ever find a private key.

> Should i be afraid of people doing this?
no you absolute braintarderino

>>30063735
Because of mathematics. It's more profitable to mine coins, than to crack private wallets. Besides I never even heard of someone, that made a lot of money trying to crack private keys.

>>30063735
>Why is no one doing this?
really makes you think

No retard

>>30063735
Why not have them guess the passwords to government servers while you're at it, dumbshit.

>>30063735
no, you are stupid

They're already doing that.

But it's not profitable at all

>>30063735
you dont need "thousands of graphics cards" to generate every possible private key combination, fuck, you can do it in your toaster.
bruteforcing doesn't end when you finished creating your wordlist, that's where it actually starts. you fucking retard.

>>30063735
Aint nobody got time foh dat.
Like millions of years unironically.

>>30064168
but bro!!! it can guess a million passwords every minute!!

>>30063735
this might work if you happen to guess which wallets have a very weak password but good luck lol

>That's because it's likely that the wallet is protected with a long and unique password, and the wallet.dat file is encrypted using two algorithms—AES-256-CBC and SHA-512—that are very slow to process. That makes it very hard to brute force. Another company that sells wallet recovery services wrote in a blog that a wallet file like this one, which has "a password with a length of 15 plus characters using Upper/lower case, numbers, special and foreign characters would be impossible to crack using brute force in a lifetime."

I'll just leave this here...

>>30063735
because a gun and forced entry is cheaper and less complicated.

>>30063735
You seem highly intelligent and are indeed asking the right questions. Take this as a token of my appreciation.

>>30064749
Looks like they cracked it

>24 word permutation
>password domain of possibly 64 characters, probably better to limit it to 10 or so
I’d be curious to see the entropy calculation of this setup. The seed phrase words are all very basic predictable dictionary words but already with 16-32 characters of a password it’s a very low chance to crack one. Throw in 24 words and it seems nigh impossible

>>30064301
Kek, some of these should be able to do trillions a second but still wouldn’t have a shot in hell

>>30063735
dude u are iq of -10000

Anybody know roughly how many possible seed phrases there are?

>>30063735
10 000 guesses a minute would have this shit taking trillions of years.
Try 100 000 000 guesses per second if you want to be mr.crackerman.

>>30063735
because you need more energy than the sun can provide and more time than the length of the universe

You can also mine CPU-only coins like YENTEN. GPU mining is retarded with all those prices.

If China develops a quantum computer first, everyone including their citizens will have their wallets cleaned out.

>>30066360
>Ye olde quantum computing fud

>>30063735
don't work :(
and never believe australians who tell you otherwise

>>30063735
yeah i do that for fun. Found 3 wallets thus far

>>30066451
I don't think we need to worry about it in our lifetime desu

there's a distributed project doing this, the large hash collider or something
found it, https://lbc.cryptoguru.org/stats
it's not really feasible

you are a real piece of fucking shit OP. i wouldnt care if you stole 100 or 20 bucks from a couple retards online but what the fuck peoples entire livelihood?

and no it doesnt fuck work you fucking IDIOT none of satoshis wallets have been hacked

CSW and Calvin are literally doing this right now to unlock Satoshi's wallet.

>>30063735
i've picked up a 3090 last week (not to mine but why not) and it says that my estimate profit is 200$ a month , if btc price drops 50% will my profitability drop 50% as well ?
>t.literal monkey who has no idea what the fuck i'm doing

>>30068828
no if btc drops 50% your profitability will rise by 50% since the miner blocks will have more sat/byte space

>>30063735
https://keys.lol
The you go anon, good luck

>>30068828
Im guessing only 200$ a month because you also game/use your card durring the day? Still not bad considering you're not using it as a dedicated miner.

>>30063828

>>30064016
You usually don't have to do that. Remember when the NSA made their AWS servers public and everyone could see who was in their database? lol it's ran by literal retards.

>>30064168

What number is that?

>>30063735
keys.lol

here you have all bitcoins and their keys, just go and geet them champ

>>30068828
well you shouldn't sell what you mine, you should keep it long term because bitcoin is going to $100k+ and higher. To me mining is just a way of acquiring more crypto just like day trading, and just like putting my wages into it.

My friend mined ethereum years ago, he had a huge rack of GPUs churning away all day, but he sold it all each week for like $100-$200 profit per day. If he had held that ethereum for a few years (and covered the costs of electricity from his wages) he would be worth fucking MILLIONS. It's a shame ETH is moving to PoS, I personally am getting as much mining done as I can possibly manage.

>>30064632
>>30064749
So these are somebody noticing their wallet has eyes on and is moving their shit, right?

That's the total amount of possible wallet combinations.
