Vanity bitcoin addresses are just like any other bitcoin addresses, but they are unique in a way as they contain some custom text like 1BTC............ .One just uses the private key to add the address to his wallet.
There is no additional advantage of having one, but they just look cool !
As the user uses split key generation, so there is no risk of loosing funds as he only has half the key only.
Also do not trust any site that generates the"whole" private key as they are sure to scam.

Yeah, that's what I said already. There is no risk of security in the service I provide, because only the address owner has the Private Key. I only have one Part Private Key, while im creating your address.

Just to clear the things about security up. Wink

Thanks and it nice to hear this words of enlightment from you guys. I will try the vanity as soon as I can in other to know how it works. Do you say it totally save?

Yes, I can say it is very, very safe, if you download bitaddress.org HTML page and generate the Split Keys offline. Please make sure to save your Private Part Key on a secure place.
Wish you a great day.

Ok, In the mean time all i have to do is to download bitaddress.org software right on my computer and then generate/create my own vanity address/Private Part Key ?

Just go on https://bitaddress.org and if finished loading, make right click and click "Safe page". Then you just have to open the folder where you saved the site and open the bitaddress.org.html (or the name you saved it). There you go! Then move your mouse randomly and after finishing go to vanity wallet and create your "Step 1 Keypair".
After that is done you can send me the public key and make sure to safe your Private Part Key on a safe place. I generate the address with the prefix you want and you pay me the price. Then you get the other Private Part Key, that I generated from me and you can go back to the downloaded site and enter both Private Part Keys and fuse it into one Private Key. Then you have your Private Key and the Vanity Address.

Wish you a great day. Wink
