After a few days, I've only mined up to 7 characters on an npub. I'll continue for a few months and see how high I can get.

I'm hoping for at least 9 at this rate. 10-11 if I keep it up for a year. 12 if I spend a lifetime or a fortune. Proof of work is hard.

Rent a GPU from vast.ai

Rana, the tool I'm using, doesn't support GPU, so I've rented 48 cores in addition to my own. But renting is expensive, so once that balance runs down, I'll just rely on whatever I've got.

Pay a bounty for gpu support

Might be worth it when I have a little more to throw at it. I've already sank enough into this for now.

Should be possible to get a different tool?

Nostr is very new still. GPU vanity for crypto addresses exists, but I don't think anyone has done the work of bringing it here yet even though Nostr keys run the same spec I think.

Business opportunity

I need a 6-letter one for something.

https://github.com/grunch/rana can do it for you

```rana -n >> npub.txt```

What

Which script are you using, and how much hashpower are you spaffing?
