The same goal, only simplified. Wink
simplified..but you're pulling hashes from all over. this seems like it will take forever to find a match. even with impressive speed. 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000c856c4ca3cb9c8766e

MoreForUs, what speed are you showing with your program? When I ran it a few times, it seems very slow, and the text is somewhat confusing.
What is considered an iteration, one key checked?
Also:

Code:
Reached 12 iterations.
Elapsed Time: 0.53 seconds
Iterations per Second: 22.43
Decimal Number: 37120000000000000000
Private Key Hex: 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000020324bb546e800000
Target Hash 160: 09d19b3025828bca263e80cf2b5da1e08e938ca3
Target Decimal Number: 37120000000000000000

Reached 170 iterations.
Elapsed Time: 14.13 seconds
Iterations per Second: 12.03
Decimal Number: 38700000000000000000
Private Key Hex: 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000002191204f5679e0000
Target Hash 160: 846874d169173600744fe5c1cdf9f2915cdb25ae
Target Decimal Number: 38700000000000000000

The Target Hash 160 verbiage is misleading, as it's not the target 160, it's the actual 160 of the current Private Key Hex being checked. Same for Target Dec Num, if we knew the target, we wouldn't be talking lol.

Anywho, I am trying to compare it's speed to my old slow python script; I think mine checks 3,000 key/s on a single core.
