- mrorbitman 5y agoI get that it's statistically impossible to actually rob bitcoin using this site (by finding a "green" private key). But can anyone explain why I am able to find so many "yellow" ones (empty wallets that have previously made transactions)? I expected going in to _only_ find "red" (never used) wallets and was surprised to find that was very much not the case.
- jerry1979 5y agoAs far as I have found, the yellow ones appear on the first pages and last pages. The first key listed is this: 5HpHagT65TZzG1PH3CSu63k8DbpvD8s5ip4nEB3kEsreAnchuDf That key might look large, but I believe it is actually the number 1 in WIF format.

- frisco 5y agoThis raises a really interesting question. Though it’s essentially impossible to figure out the key for any given wallet… if you download the blockchain and generate private keys as fast as you can, how often do you find one that has a balance? Will there just be some ongoing very low but decidedly nonzero risk of all of your assets vanishing some day if you’re not using multisig?
- magma1983 5y agoWith every supercomputer working for 100 years, you can have 0.01% of all accounts, maybe.
- Tuna-Fish 5y ago... not even close. 2^256 is a very large number. If you could build a computer that required a single atom, and could test the balance of a single account in a single nanosecond, and then converted the entirety of the earth into such computers, it would take ~2.8 million years for you to check 0.01% of all accounts. Brute-forcing modern cryptography isn't something that can happen. The magnitude of 2^256 is close to the count of atoms in the entire observable universe.
- 5e92cb50239222b 5y ago> The magnitude of 2^256 is close to the count of atoms in the entire observable universe. I've always heard that even 2¹²⁸ is significantly larger than that number (which is closer to 2⁸⁰). This page seems to support that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observable_universe#Matter_content—number_of_atoms https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observable_universe#Matter_con...
- V1ndaar 5y agoNope, the rough approximation of atoms in the universe is O(10^80). Big difference!

- tromp 5y agoCuriously, after hitting a random page and >> twice, I came upon this page https://playxo.com/bitcoin/904625697166532776746648320380374280100293470930272690489102837043110636675 https://playxo.com/bitcoin/904625697166532776746648320380374... that had several keys in use in the past. I would expect this website, in the rare event of discovering some positive balance, to try spending it right away...
- baby 5y ago>> goes to the last page
- john_alan 5y agoHey John - I came here to ask the same question. How is that possible. Same happened to me. >> leads to the "end" page, it's not as I though a "big jump" from some random page... thus I suspect it's simply addresses that are low entropy, at the end of the range.
- danuker 5y agoPossible causes are caching or random seeding using integer seconds.
- bspammer 5y agoOr someone implementing their own bitcoin client and using a predictable key for fun
- ORioN63 5y agoThey're the trivial wallet addresses (close to the beginning and end of the search space). I would expect them to be used for debugging and testing in the early days.
- ricardobeat 5y agoWhat makes them trivial, how are they generated?

- lou1306 5y agoIMHO everyone interested in computer science should try some Borges, at least Ficciones. Many of his stories are so mind-boggingly close to many topics of interest in CS. Beside The Library of Babel, I can come up with at least two other examples: * Tlon Uqbar Orbis Tertius describes an extreme Idealistic philosophy where things exist only as long as someone (something?) perceives them, which IMHO is an apt description of the digital world. * Funes describes the life of a man with perfect recall: so perfect, in fact, that he is unable to classify things (e.g., stones, or dogs) due to the infinite amount of details that set every single object apart from every other. And in a way, don't ML algorithms work by teaching a computer to forget about these details?
- lvncelot 5y agoWhich would also contain your bitcoin private key, although I would recommend not searching for it.
- sirk390 5y agoJust don't lookup your private key in there. This would be like giving it to the website
- Nextgrid 5y agoIf I had some coins on my machine and the fees were low enough I'd be tempted to put a few bucks on a new key and test this theory.
- kobalsky 5y agoI do something similar but to test that my pc hasn't been compromised. I have an unencrypted btc wallet with a few hundred usd worth of btc as a canary. It's not perfect of course.
- lordnacho 5y agoHow will you test the theory? It would be easy to just not sweep small amounts. Then when someone checks a wallet with a large amount, joink!
- 2-718-281-828 5y agowhat would be the incentive for trying a second time with another wallet?
- Ensorceled 5y agoI think you are missing how this would work. The scammer wouldn't scoop up the proceeds if it was a small account you were looking up, only if it was a whale. This is to prevent someone from figuring out it was a scam with a small account and only gain a few dollars from the scam.
- 2-718-281-828 5y agoI think you are missing something. If you have a wallet with very little or no money attached to it. And the you check for the correspoinding private key. If you find it - you "know" it works and then _might_ be inclined to try the key for a more serious wallet. But if not, then you know this site doesn't work and would have no inclination to try another key. If you enter important passwords or keys into random websites then this isn't about incentive but mere stupidity.
- swiftcoder 5y agoI'm curious whether anyone has ever actually stumbled on a wallet containing coins via this method of randomly walking all private keys. The odds are... not in one's favour
- sudhirj 5y agoObligatory reminder about the birthday problem - the probability that someone birthday is a particular day is 1/365, but the chances of two people in a group of 30 having the same birthday is very high - because the universe has so many combinations of people to work with. The chances of hitting a particular wallet you want to hack are 1/2^256 or some absurdly minuscule number, but the chances of hitting some wallet are higher because there are so many opportunities to get lucky.
- nielsole 5y agoEven if there were 10^18 wallets your chance of finding any private key is effectively zero
- sudhirj 5y agoYeah, but people seem to have found wallets already. This is more a reminder that the probability is a little different from the naive 1/total possibilities idea.
- FabHK 5y agoThe birthday paradox speaks to the probability of having a collision, though - in other words, if you randomly try wallets, the probability that you hit one again that you've tried already. That probability is higher than the probability of hitting a non-zero wallet, once you've tried more wallets than there are non-zero wallets. The birthday paradox says that you need to try sqrt(N) before you have a collision, while here we still need to hit N/k (where k is the number of non-zero wallets) before we find a non-zero wallet, and the latter number is much bigger than the former.
- rhn_mk1 5y agoAre they though? What kind of a random number generator is being used? Does it have 256 bits of entropy?
- micw 5y agoI doubt it actually works correctly. When I get a random number out of 904625697166532776746648320380374280100293470930272690489102837043110636675, it's the probably that it has the same amount of digits is ~1:9 and has at least 3 digits less is ~1:900. But i constantly get way smaller numbers.
- Marazan 5y agoI could simply* be a 256bit LFSR so guaranteed to cycle through every possibility. * As far as I'm aware there are not taps published for a 256 LFSR.
- theden 5y agoIt's like passively playing the world's worst lottery in terms of odds, but hundreds of thousands of times every second. It's fun but the odds are astronomically low. I have a script[1] that generates a pub+private key and checks against a massive file of addresses with BTC[2]. The list of addresses is loaded in memory as a python `set` so checking is O(1), but I feel like optimisations at increasing the rate are futile, since no matter what you're basically rolling the die and hoping RNG lands on your side in your lifetime and your universe of all possible universes. 1. https://github.com/theden/btc-heist https://github.com/theden/btc-heist 2. https://bitkeys.work/download.php https://bitkeys.work/download.php has a weekly updated CSV of all known addresses with nonzero BTC balance
- saalweachter 5y agoHave you explored the space of "poorly generated keys"? I assume someone has screwed up their key generation at some point in a predictable way, and that's a much smaller space than every possible way.
- shim__ 5y agoThere used to be brain wallets which were private key derived from a password. A lot of those got brute forced back in the day
- faebi 5y agoI always wanted to make a lottery which randomly bruteforces against Satoshis initially mined coins. Therefore you won't harm a financial institution on the way to win.
- HPsquared 5y agoThat's what mining is too, basically. It's just that a mining rig can "buy a lot more tickets".
- theden 5y agoSolo mining yeah definitely, but with pool mining one can at least generate some fraction of a BTC.
- rwoerz 5y agoAn all private keys are in π... somewhere.
- cedilla 5y agoProbably, yes. But that's not proven. The property that a number contains all sequences is called being "normal". We assume π is normal, but we have never proven any number to be normal, except those specifically constructed to be that way (like 0.123456789101112131415161718192021...). And that's despite the fact that almost all real numbers are normal.
- jhoelzel 5y agothe odds increase a lot though if you have millions of people all over the world using the site to generate pairs right? ;) yes yes i know its still a shot in the dark but a man can dream.
- Havoc 5y agoI'm surprised by the amount of wallets its hitting that have had transactions. Like ~5% perhaps. Would have guess a far lower number. Almost suggests bots would have perhaps luck at hitting a live one. Which seems somewhat counterintuitive.
- globular-toast 5y agoIt is a far lower number. Are you checking random pages or browsing from the beginning? If you check random pages you're unlikely to even find a single page with a tx.
- Havoc 5y agoStarted at random point and then clicked next. I checked a dozen or so and most had around 5-8 orange addresses each. Maybe I just hit a range that is especially busy. Which in a way is even more ominous though since it should be random
- smegsicle 5y agowhat range? i feel you're joshin'
- Havoc 5y ago>i feel you're joshin' Just re-checked...the answer is a lot less mundane than theorized. I wasn't clicking on next button I was repeatedly hitting last page button...and last page for whatever stats reason has does indeed have a freakishly high high number of used addresses So interesting but of no real consequence
- bjano 5y agoCouple years ago there was a similar site with the same idea about listing all private keys. If you "found" an active address it was immediately emptied. (I am not sure if it had a search bar or you had to edit the URL)
- skylabmelody 5y agoThis one has a more condensed ui: https://keys.lol/bitcoin/random https://keys.lol/bitcoin/random
- JimWestergren 5y agoSeveral wallets with balances here, one with more than 10 ETH, what does that mean? https://keys.lol/ethereum/904625697166532776746648320380374280100293470930272690489102837043110636675 https://keys.lol/ethereum/9046256971665327767466483203803742...

- giomasce 5y agoIt means inefficient market on my book. Bad, veeery bad.
- pcthrowaway 5y agoI found this a while back, but even though the public addresses can receive ETH, I believe they can't be claimed due to something like the private keys being invalid for transaction signing purposes.
- trishmapow2 5y agoPrivate key of the 10 ETH wallet isn't accepted in MyEtherWallet. Other ones are pretty much empty, so maybe the site is caching the balances. Same thing if you check page 1.
- james_a_craig 5y agoSo, after a few minutes on the site, I found a half-dozen private keys with several transactions, but zero balance. Is the key-space so densely populated that this is expected? Edit: Never mind, I'd misclicked on the "last page" button, which has a page with a fair few transactions showing.
- Pawka 5y agoReminds me pretty popular torrent from old times named something similar to "List of all IPv4 addresses - every hacker must have". Sadly I am not able to remember exact name and find it anymore. Backstory is that ~15 years ago when upload ratio was important some person decided to generate a list and upload a torrent with such click bait name just to increase his/her ratio. It worked well.

- globular-toast 5y agoIf you actually did stumble upon a key with a balance, would you steal it? I think I would and I wouldn't even feel bad about it even though logically I know it's a horrible thing to do.
- yholio 5y agoThis website contains all Bitcoin private keys in the same sense that a Turing complete computer can solve any programming problem, or the way that a suficient quantity of certain chemicals in the right environment will eventually evolve into all possible life-forms that will ever exist in the universe.

- wirelesspotat 5y agoSoo what happens if you're incredibly lucky and stumble across the private key for an active wallet? If you transfer the funds out, isn't that just theft? Is "guessing" a private key any different from guessing someone's bank details?
- stjohnswarts 5y agoI would 100% yes by traditional definitions of theft. Who knows by today's standards?
- alibarber 5y agoIf you guess someone’s bank details and steal their money, in many jurisdictions the account owner would have some recourse against the bank and is likely to be made whole (not an easy or enjoyable process I’ll admit) - so I guess that’s one key difference.
- anshumankmr 5y ago> Finding an active wallet is hard, but not impossible. Every time you open a random page, you have a chance of finding someone else's fortune. Good to know I have a 1/2^256 chance to find a bitcoin billionaire's wallet. This feels only slightly more ludicrous than the guy who lost his bitcoin in a hard drive and went looking for it in a dumpster.
- adontz 5y agoIt is not 1/2^256. It is "number of wallets with balance"/2^256.
- giomasce 5y agoNot that different...
- john_alan 5y agoactually its "number of wallets with balance"/2^160. You don't need to find a specific private key, anyone will do that yields a public key that hashes to the BTC address.
- ldaw 5y agoA quick search shows there are a little over 30M addresses with a nonzero balance, which is just under 2^25. That means the actual probability would be about 1/(2^135). At a million hashes per second, that means you would likely find one after about 10^27 years.

- hjorthjort 5y agoWord of advice: don't go looking for your private keys. If someone was malicious they could log all fetched pages and scan those for keys with funds attached. The act of looking up a specific key is revealing information.
- Lucasoato 5y agoLet's play a game just to visualize how unlikely this is. Do you know our universe? Nice, now choose a random atom. Yup, one single atom. Randomly guessing your exact single atom is just a bit harder than guessing someone's private key in that way... considering that the number of atom in the observable universe is between 10^78 and 10^82 and not considering that there are a lot of wallets around.
- metanomicon 5y agoJust curious. Legally speaking. If someone was to "guess" the private key to an account with hundreds or thousands of bitcoin, could they legally move the bitcoin and take control of it? Or is it just as much an act of theft as guessing someone's car door code and driving off with the car? I can't imagine there is any legal precedent for such a thing.
- b112 5y agoIf ownership of a thing can be asserted, then so can theft. No other legal assertions required.

- wruza 5y agoAs of December 2021, approximately 18.77 million Bitcoins are in circulation Thousands of bitcoin would hardly make any difference at this time. A surge will happen out of fear, but not for long.
- parsimo2010 5y agoLegally stealing you still committed theft. Just because you have the technical ability to pick a lock doesn't give you the right to enter a room and take someone else's stuff. And there is a lot of legal precedent that hacking weak passwords is still hacking (also an illegal act even if you don't steal anything) and the theft of digital goods is still theft. Practically speaking, if you actually managed to get hundreds of thousands of bitcoin, you're going to have someone very interested in getting it back. The legal argument might not even concern you if the previous holder of those bitcoins thinks that most likely way to recover their money by hiring thugs to hurt you.

- bhouston 5y agoI completely expect in the next 10 years someone will steal Satoshi's private key for their huge horde of bitcoin. The incentives are huge.
- drexlspivey 5y agoI’ll take the over
- bhouston 5y agoThe reason why I think it will be eventually cracked is that technology moves forward and old encryption techniques need to be upgraded, but if Satoshi is dead, he will never upgrade his key. This means that eventually it will be crackable. Encryption over time never holds up as well as people believe it is when it is initially created. I look at MD5, designed in 1991, declared broken and insecure by 2008. SHA1, designed in 1995, declared insecure in 2005. When git moved away from SHA1, projects could move towards SHA2 because they were still active. Satoshi's keys can not move to better encryption techniques as things evolve if he is dead. Thus eventually his keys should be broken unless we assume that progress in cryptography is dead, or it is a solved problem. Maybe we have finally solved it for one and all, but I suspect we haven't.
- FabHK 5y agoThere is nothing to crack. You "just" need to guess it. It is impossible for the foreseeable future with technology as we understand it today, and if it becomes possible, then a lot of other things have to change. In other words, if it ever happens, by that time BTC will have become irrelevant.

- mnahkies 5y agoI was fascinated by a similar idea as a child, generating images of everything that has been, could be, or will be by exhaustively going through the possible combinations of pixels for some fixed size of image. Later realized that the number of combinations were impossibly large, although in some ways the models that generate photos of people that aren't real, etc are searching the same space just with a lot of direction on what they are searching for (as opposed to my math.rand implementation in Adobe flash that produced noise...)
- globular-toast 5y agoThis actually caused me some grief as I began to learn more about computers. As soon as I realised everything was finite, I began to think about exhausting that space. Still today I don't like to think of all the computers everywhere generating billions of sha1 hashes every second. It makes me uneasy. I believe this comes from a natural tendency to seek sustainability which, sadly, most people don't seem to have.
- thegeomaster 5y agoWow, I had this same idea as a kid too! I daydreamed about all the cool images you could generate. For example, you could create an image that describes the cure for cancer, because that's just another image, right?

- hbn 5y agoI remember being very young and theorizing that video games worked by having every possible frame that could exist for the game loaded onto them, and as you pressed buttons the game would show you the appropriate frames for your scenario. I guess because I had something of an understanding of how movies worked, I just assumed video games would be exactly the same. Probably not the most efficient method of fitting a game onto a Gameboy cartridge!

- iso8859-1 5y agoWhat if my utxo is a taproot output? The page only shows base52 addresses. What if they are additionally locked with hash like Lightning channels are? The checker is bound to be unexhaustive because even with Bitcoins limited scripting, there are too many scripts to check. And with taproot it has gotten even cheaper to use complicated locking schemes.

- authed 5y agoWhat's up with this in the javascript: -1 !== a.indexOf("1EHNa6Q4Jz2uvNExL497mE43ikXhwF6kZm,") && (a = a.replace("1EHNa6Q4Jz2uvNExL497mE43ikXhwF6kZm,", ""), r("5HpHagT65TZzG1PH3CSu63k8DbpvD8s5ip4nEB3kEsreAnchuDf", 0, 1213)), -1 !== a.indexOf(",1JPbzbsAx1HyaDQoLMapWGoqf9pD5uha5m") && (a = a.replace(",1JPbzbsAx1HyaDQoLMapWGoqf9pD5uha5m", ""), r("5Km2kuu7vtFDPpxywn4u3NLpbr5jKpTB3jsuDU2KYEqetqj84qw", 0, 19)), -1 !== a.indexOf("1BFhrfTTZP3Nw4BNy4eX4KFLsn9ZeijcMm,") && (a = a.replace("1BFhrfTTZP3Nw4BNy4eX4KFLsn9ZeijcMm,", ""), r("5KJp7KEffR7HHFWSFYjiCUAntRSTY69LAQEX1AUzaSBHHFdKEpQ", 0, 165)), axios.get(n + a).then((function(e) { keys.forEach((function(t) { o(3e3).then((function() { var n = e.data[t.pub]; void 0 !== n && r(t.wif, n.final_balance / 1e8, n.n_tx) })) })) })) , isOnFirstPage ?

- unnouinceput 5y agoQuote: "A private key is basically just a number between 1 and 2^256" Anyone who still uses 2^256 as key length deserves to have their bitcoins stolen. Form what I know modern wallets have their keys more like 2^4096, at least. Heck, even Satoshi did that with its wallet, you know the famous >1M bitcoins he mined at beginning.
- rwiggum 5y agoThis is false
- jtbayly 5y agoAm I right in understanding that this is somehow checking every private key on the page against every single wallet with money? How can it do that so fast?
