there is a posiblility with a brute force attack's (theory) .The problem how many ASIC do you need  for make it?

More than you could physically fit on earth, requiring orders of magnitudes more electricity than human civilization will be producing in the foreseeable future.

Also you'd need to design and build completely different ASICs then the ones that are currently used in mining. Calculating nonces is literally the only thing these ASICs can and ever will do. For any other purpose you'd need to build different oens from scratch.


If you have the real tools you can make it because the problem  is not the all posible combination is infinite .

If you have interstellar travel you can make it to every star in the Milky Way because our galaxy is not infinite. But for practical purposes it might as well be.
