There are algorithms that are actually getting the uniform real randomness (not some deterministic PRNG bullshit like someone mentioned earlier, I mean really lol? Haven't they heard about os.urandom and how it works?)
Code:
import os, sys, random
import time
min_range = 18446744073709551615
max_range = 36893488147419103231
counter = 0 # Initialize counter
start_time = time.time()
while True:
random_bytes = os.urandom(9)
initial_bytes = b'\x00' * 23
full_bytes = initial_bytes + random_bytes
dec = int.from_bytes(full_bytes, byteorder='big')
counter += 1 # Increment counter
message = "\rPrivate Keys per second: {:.2f}".format(counter / (time.time() - start_time))
messages = []
messages.append(message)
output = "\033[01;33m" + ''.join(messages) + "\r"
sys.stdout.write(output)
sys.stdout.flush()
if min_range <= dec <= max_range:
if dec == 30568377312064202855:
print("\nSeed :", random_bytes)
print("Generated number:", dec)
break
import time
min_range = 18446744073709551615
max_range = 36893488147419103231
counter = 0 # Initialize counter
start_time = time.time()
while True:
random_bytes = os.urandom(9)
initial_bytes = b'\x00' * 23
full_bytes = initial_bytes + random_bytes
dec = int.from_bytes(full_bytes, byteorder='big')
counter += 1 # Increment counter
message = "\rPrivate Keys per second: {:.2f}".format(counter / (time.time() - start_time))
messages = []
messages.append(message)
output = "\033[01;33m" + ''.join(messages) + "\r"
sys.stdout.write(output)
sys.stdout.flush()
if min_range <= dec <= max_range:
if dec == 30568377312064202855:
print("\nSeed :", random_bytes)
print("Generated number:", dec)
break
This is Python script that will test os.urandom speed.
The example works for Puzzle 65. There is no hash or secp256k1 operations here - just numbers.
Result is (on my PC) :
Private Keys per second: 170893.39
Do you know how many numbers need to be generated per second to find Puzzle 65 in 10 minutes?
30744573456182586 Private Keys per second !
It's an mission impossible . Even in C++
We need Grey aliens hardware to solve this. From Zeta Reticuli
