You said that your performance is 9 million BTC-addresses per second, i.e. approximately 223 BTC-addresses per second. Thus the brute forcing will take 2160-23 = 2137 seconds! I guess it is more than septillion (1024) years!

Note that this calculating is very approximate, because actually the private key length is 2256, but I think it is enough to stop making an attempts to crack Bitcoin-addresses.

The 1070ti was released in 2017

bitcrack can be set up to search all 31million known bitcoin adresses with money in them.

2^160 - (2^25 + (2^29 * gpus))


1 gpu (2017) will use around 2^104 seconds.
10 000 (2017) gpu's will use around 2^90 seconds

And then there is more's law, and then there is luck. Smiley
