just ensure the progress and don't be a jerk about someone idea.

Sorry but I'm not really being a jerk when I say what you are doing is waste of time, I wasted 2 month on WIFs, then I found out there is no shortcut unless we know the checksum which is 6 base58 characters even though the checksum is not part of the hex private key but knowing it could change everything.

Apology for calling you a spammer, you could post a one line example instead of 20 lines.

Btw, if I wanted to spend time on learning how to code, I couldn't learn the little I know about ECC.  Imagine I spent 1 hour to download and install packages and then copy them one by one to the directory of my script just to realize I am not built for such things, every person has his own sets of skills, learning how to code is not mine to master.

that's the point of the puzzle, makes you work, it's not a newborn puzzle everyday like on X, it's found and launch from 2015, someone do BSGS like month and year, 2 month trying is nothing.
