Hi guys, couple weeks ago, creating a wallet I found this website:
Maybe you already knew about it. But I got interested in the challege there.
So you can win 20 BTC by guessing 8 alpanumeric chars.
Here is the address to bruteforce.

I wrote a simple python script to automate the process of quessing and generating private keys/adresses and comparing them to the target wallet. There is an ability to use your own seed to get different random keys for different people.
I will post it here if this post will get 25 comments and 50 likes :)
Hi, I like your post. I'm following you. You should follow me. Thank you :)
Hahahahahah that's a 26 billion combos...
Yea I know. But if we get 10000 pool to do this we may get nice chances till Jan 1st))) generating and checking 200K-1M per day (my very old PC speed) per person.
BTW. If smb rewrite it to C++ or Compile to Cython it will go much faster.
highly unlikely to get the right combo... :D
