Hi, everybody!
You know that CPU XEON 2680v2 can brute-force public key (secp256k1 curve)  at speed 55TH/s per thread  Shocked
Totaly double CPU can do 2.2PH/s !!!!    Cool ->>40 threads with 55TH/s each.
That CPU cannot do *any* operation at that speed, not even a single 32-bit multiply. Your post is an outright untruth.

My guess is that you intend to trick people into running malware or just rip them off selling them cracking software that lies about its performance.
if you do not know how, this does not mean that it is impossible.
I'm not going to post programs, source codes or algorithms. It's just a fact.

But any way i can prove speed in easy way  Wink
You can make private in range
from
0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001
to
0x00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000031f5c4ed27680000
than make public key(64bytes) from this private key and  show me this public key.

Total points in this range 3600000000000000000, so i will limit speed to 1Ph/s and i my CPU should  brute-force this range in 1hour.
If i find private key that you make i will post him.
But if I fail, you must show your private key so that I can verify it with the public key you specify.
