Guys, let's solve puzzles not using a GPU, but using a python script and a couple of CPU processors in 15 minutes.

How do you imagine this?)

The only acceleration would occur if you wrote the .so extensions for ripemd160_avx2 and sha256_avx2 and used them for hashing in Python. And everything else related to EC. However, the CPU can't handle more than 8M keys per core—that's the maximum I've achieved in C++. Dead end.
