How long will rana take for a 7-character npub prefix? It says "estimated pow: 28", but bech32 stores 5 bits per character, not 4, so I think it is pow 35. But how long is that? Sn0wden took 3 days, right? Of course it's totally random, could take much less or more. Breaking and starting again doesn't change anything (even if it feels like it does).

Depends how many core you have. For me, 8 hex chars took about 2 days, on a 8 core machine with 29 000 hashes/sec.

You can also mine on GPU: https://nitter.sethforprivacy.com/afilini/status/1609576086920171521#m
