It would be nice if you could search for not just a specific Vanity address, but also a specific pubkey address.
For example if I wanted to search for an address with a public key that begins with 0400000000 or 02123456  or 03333333 etc.
Is it very hard to implement something like this to the VanitySearch?

Interesting idea ) Something like vanity public key  Grin
Actually this could be applied to ETH addresses as well (in ETH 256bit public keys are the addresses).

I also suppose that vanity search for BTC public key should be faster (as there is no need to perform RIPEMD 160 and SHA256 hash fuctions)
