I have decided I'm going to guess the password to Satoshi Nakamotos bitcoin wallet. People say it would take the age of the universe to try all the possible combinations, umm okay, but what if you found the password on the 100,000,000th try? That would only take like 5 microseconds on a modern computer, how many passwords can there be lol

I've already downloaded 24TB of rainbow tables onto my external harddrive, I am fed up of trading in five figure hell when I can just get a lucky guess and become the richest man on earth in an instant, it's not like the lottery where you can only play once a week and you have to buy a ticket, imagine a lottery where you can try an unlimited number of times to guess the numbers and it doesn't cost you anything to play, desu it seems like a major flaw with bitcoin that they didn't think of this.

Anon, as someone who worked on the Bitcoin Core protocol, you are unironically retarded.

Please don't try this - you can't imagine how long it would take you to try even a billionth of the guess set... and that's assuming you the entire computing power of the planet.

stop posting this thread. Just going along with your retardation for a moment: it does cost money to enter the "lottery" of guessing a certain private key. Electricity and time.

[Anonymous No.29178415]

I wonder how long it would take to guess the password if all the processing power currently used for mining was used collaboratively to guess it? Maybe that was his idea for the Bitcoin endgame - everyone unifying.

If you covered the Earth in supercomputers and then filled the universe with supercomputer-covered Earths it would be long after the heat death of the universe before you cracked a SHA256 password.

1. There are 20,000 satoshi wallets.
2. Not a single one of them can be spent. Any transaction signed by a coinbase wallet it automatically rejected by the network, by design.
Note: before coinbase was an exchange it referred to those first 20,000 blocks and wallets.

It's not about math at this point but remote viewing or speaking with a higher power to do it. You don't want to open that channel though. Not worth even thousands of Bitcoin.

Interesting, I have an auntie that once summoned a beelzebub and he rode her like a camel around her living room while she spoke in tongues. Maybe I should get in touch with her and see if she can help

You would still not be able to spend coins from the genesis block. Period, written explicitly in bitcoin
And then you only get 50 btc. Lol
Might as well try cracking the huobi hot wallet instead

but in the time it takes to pick up the dice and then throw them again, you can try like 10 trillion passwords. Plus you could roll six's each of the first 256 times, I was playing monopoly with my parents over christmas once, my dad rolled four sixes in a row and he wasn't even trying

How about I send you some BTC to help and then when you crack it in a few hours you can return it?

so the FUD I sometimes see about Satoshi crashing the market by dumping his bags is completely unfounded?

[Anonymous No.29184366]

The odds of you guessing the password are about the same as you and I each randomly selecting the same grain of sand from a among all the world’s beaches.
Is there a chance? Yes... theoretically. Realistically, it’s so much worse than improbable.
