Currently attempting to mine an 8 character vanity npub prefix. 4 billion guesses down...
Discussion
Using Rana or something else?
If so, I forked it and made edits that will email you all mined vanities. Could set as a background process and wait lol.
I'm using https://github.com/Eriner/vanity-npub
There's a trillion possibilities for 8 characters of bech 32. How many CPU cycles are be needed to check one? I'm assuming there's not a better method than brute force, right?
how would you migrate nsecs?
There's no easy way to do that, but it's not for my personal use anyway.
Mine is a shorter vanity npub, currently mining a LN pubkey
happy with 5
Good luck!

I did a 7-character one in about 24 hours, so maybe it won't be that bad.
Any guide about vanity Bitcoin addresses?
Don't do it. Bitcoin addresses are disposable for a reason.
2^64 ?
SUCCESS!
It only required 200,000,000,000 guesses. 🫠
