So this is my attempt at searching key sub-ranges. If you know the key begins with 0x20 then I was searching for "13zb" and keys that printed 0x20-0x3f are noted. I went through various puzzles, some already solved and broke the key ranges down into sub-ranges. Hopefully you will find this useful.

import multiprocessing
import base58
import secrets
from bitcoin import privtopub, pubtoaddr

def vint():
puzzle_66 = "13zb1hQbWVsc2S7ZTZnP2G4undNNpdh5so"
btc = ""

while btc[:len(puzzle_66)] != puzzle_66:
alphabet = "123456789ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz"
untext = "".join(secrets.choice(alphabet) for i in range (12))
text = '11111111111111111111111' + 'C' + untext #23 1's 'C' is the parameter you can change.
base58Str = base58.b58decode(text).hex()
pubKey = privtopub(base58Str)
btc = pubtoaddr(pubKey)

f = open("keys.txt", "a")
f.write(base58Str + "\n")
f.close()
b = open("btc.txt", "a")
b.write(btc + "\n")
b.close()

print(base58Str)
print(pubKey)
print(btc)

processes = []
for _ in range(1):
p1 = multiprocessing.Process(target=vint)
p1.start()
processes.append(p1)
for process in processes:
process.join()

I don't know python, but I found a bug.
The range is not correct, but that's half the problem.
Will it save keys.txt ? base58Str is declared local?
It will be right, who knows?

Code:

import multiprocessing
import base58
import secrets
from bitcoin import privtopub, pubtoaddr

def vint():
puzzle_66 = "13zb1hQbWVsc2S7ZTZnP2G4undNNpdh5so"
btc = ""
base58Str = "" # ?
pubKey = "" # ?

while btc != puzzle_66: #while btc[:len(puzzle_66)] != puzzle_66:
alphabet = "123456789ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz"
untext = "".join(secrets.choice(alphabet) for i in range (11))
#text = '11111111111111111111111' + 'C' + untext #23 1's 'C' is the parameter you can change.
text = '11111111111111111111111' + '3' + untext
base58Str = base58.b58decode(text).hex()
pubKey = privtopub(base58Str)
btc = pubtoaddr(pubKey)
#print (base58Str)
#print (btc)
#print (btc[:len(puzzle_66)])

f = open("keys.txt", "a")
f.write(base58Str + "\n")
f.close()
b = open("btc.txt", "a")
b.write(btc + "\n")
b.close()

print(base58Str)
print(pubKey)
print(btc)
