Thanks!
But I can multiply numbers.
Me the dimension of size MKey / s interests.
For example, 1 MKey / s - is how much the private keys are: 1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000, 1000000 or other meaning ?

Author can correct me if necessary, but I presume 1 MKey/s would mean mega-keys, ie it's trying 1 000 000 (one million) key combinations per second?

It's brute forcing so every raw private key attempt has to be mapped (through public key generation plus hashing) to an address.

Thanks!
I know many different units of measurements: meters, kilometers, minute, seconds, ft, km / hour, the mile / hour etc., with this unit (MKey/s) has met for the first time.
I assumed, that 1 MKey/s it can be 1 000 000 Key/s, but has decided to ask the connoisseurs.
