I've generated over 10,000. Grin

I only use probably 10 and I've only used about 30 over the course of my Bitcoining. << new verb

Why have you generated 10k Bitcoin addresses? What's the point of that?

I regularly generate bitcoin addresses for projects I use so I have generated millions if not tens of millions.

Funny story, I once left vanitygen running when I went on holiday generating addresses that start with 1MF into a text file, the output looked like this;-

It was generating about 50,000 keys per second. Anyway, I came back to my workstation after 3-4 days and it had totally filled a 1TB hard disk Wink

.

It was only after I deleted the file that I though it would be a quite effective way of thwarting hard disk scanning malware! Just getting the data from my PC over the internet would take weeks (bandwidth is slow here in NZ) but actualy checking the balance of the billion or so keys I generated would take decades!

A few of weeks of that and you have a BTC address for every person on Earth. Shocked
