It's now May 1 2019, anybody still hunting BTC private keys?

For sure there are still people who do strive and hoping to get some jackpot into those wallets who do have balances but i do think

that most of them completely stop yet its pointless on hunting out btc private keys that do have corresponding balance considering on the odds.
You will find yourself on finding these keys for eternity Grin

I just started private key hunting a few days ago when I realized that BTC key generation is only pseudo random. It instead generates similar keys based on what keys have already been generated and used (this is where I realized it can be exploited). Why it does this I'm not sure, but it does nonetheless. Not going to give much more information until I make a large profit myself as I said I only realized this a couple of days ago. I've already found hundreds of keys with transactions in the past, and a couple with actual balances (dust).

Hey Cryptoneze, are you still hunting private key? I stumbled upon this thread by actually searching to hunt for private keys and its been two years since you started your hunt with the script you created. I wonder how did it go? If it worked at all. Please PM me. I tried pming you and couldn't.
