I sent you a private message, sorry for the inconvenience, it's because I was curious about something. If you can answer, thank you.


I apologize in advance, I don’t want to offend anyone.
Everyone has their own approach to searching for private keys in this game. I, for example, don’t use a GPU. I based my work on keyhunt with heavy modifications, and now I’ve reached 400 Pkeys/s on an old CPU, even though initially I couldn’t get above 60 Pkeys/s.

Rumor has it, if you flash a custom firmware to a doorbell, it can do 7 exa keys/s.

I think most people are unaware that skipping 7 exakeys/s, or even many many multiples of that, in a space of exponential size equals jack shit.

Let me guess: you think BSGS is even remotely feasible for anything above 80 or so bits, right?

There's nothing (and there can be nothing) faster when it comes to real keys/s then purely adding some public keys together without any side-step requirements (such, as, uh-oh, making some table lookups at every freaking step). Guess what's the name of that algorithm?

I don’t owe anyone any proof.
I’ll say it straight — right now, I’m searching for 135.
