Has anyone actually used Nostrogen to generate a 5 letter vanity key? Mine's been running for 43 hours so far. I'm wondering if I should use the command line tool instead?

Have way faster results with Rana in terminal. 6 letter one took me 5 hours.
Oh and great addition: you can search for multiple at the same time. If it's searching anyway, why just look for one? During that 5 hours it was looking for 6 other (shorter) ones.
Rana works very well.
Yes, I generated 5 char one in 13 hours
as if your dick grows with it. all good the way you are 🍻
rana --vanity-n=mutuum8 -c 8

I think I got lucky cuz I left it running all night and didn't get a 2nd one to gen.
Rana will probably hit that within a few hours on even a 8 core machine. I'm sure rust is more efficient than a browser can be.
I did yesterday to try it, took me 5 minutes.. 🤷🏻♂️, 4letters
Web interface worked with 6 letters for me, see my pubkey 😁
