What kind of hardware did he have to solve 10 characters in 11 minutes! Thats awesome and is exactly what I need. going to look into this as well now!

You can't do it in that short time, as you don't have the public key.

1 year ago, user PawGo calculated exactly your case (10 missing WIF characters) but with the public key in less than 11 minutes.

Not bad, no? Wink

10 missing WIF characters - Less than 11 minutes on old CPU. GPU performance - to be seen.

That's fantastic. I'll have to go back to check Pollard's kangaroo algorithm again.

SO I may have gotten lucky and found an old screenshot of wallet that contains a Hash160 address. That is the public key right? Please tell me I just got lucky and can use the kangaroo stuff above?

Thanks,
