If you have an OpenCL-compatible GPU, use oclvanitygen++ for faster performance. It supports both secp256k1 coins (BTC, ETH, etc.) and Ed25519 coins (SOL, XLM).

Ed25519 Chains (GPU)

oclvanitygen++ supports Ed25519-based blockchains (Solana, Stellar, TON) via -C SOL, -C XLM, or -C TON. The pattern uses * as a wildcard:

$ ./oclvanitygen++ -C SOL AAAA              # prefix
$ ./oclvanitygen++ -C SOL '*pump'           # suffix
$ ./oclvanitygen++ -C SOL 'AAAA*pump'       # prefix + suffix
$ ./oclvanitygen++ -C SOL '*cafe*' -i       # anywhere, case-insensitive
$ ./oclvanitygen++ -C SOL AAAA -a 5 -o out  # find 5 matches, save to file
$ ./oclvanitygen++ -C TON UQAbc             # TON V5R1, prefix 
$ ./oclvanitygen++ -C TON 'UQAbc*xyz'       # TON V5R1, prefix + suffix
$ ./oclvanitygen++ -C TON -W v4r2 EQAbc     # TON V4R2, bounceable

Seeds are generated from /dev/urandom (cryptographically secure). The output seed is a standard RFC 8032 Ed25519 seed that can be imported into any compatible wallet.

Build

Method 1: Manual Dependency Installation

Step 1: Install dependencies

On Redhat/CentOS:

$ yum install openssl-devel
$ yum install libcurl-devel

On Ubuntu:

$ apt install build-essential
$ apt install libssl-dev
$ apt install libpcre3-dev
$ apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev

On MacOS:

$ brew install openssl@3
$ brew install pcre

For GPU tools (oclvanitygen++, oclvanityminer), you also need OpenCL development libraries:

$ apt install opencl-headers ocl-icd-opencl-dev    # Ubuntu
$ yum install opencl-headers ocl-icd-devel         # CentOS/Redhat

Step 2: Build the executable files:

$ make          # builds: vanitygen++ keyconv
$ make all      # builds: vanitygen++ keyconv oclvanitygen++ oclvanityminer

Method 2: Automatic Dependency Installation (nix-build)

First, install nix-build. For more information, visit: https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/installation/installing-binary.html

After successfully installing nix-build, run:

$ git clone https://github.com/10gic/vanitygen-plusplus.git
$ cd vanitygen-plusplus
$ nix-build                           # Builds: vanitygen++ oclvanitygen++ keyconv oclvanityminer
$ ./result/bin/vanitygen++ 1Love      # Executable files are located in ./result/bin/
Pattern: 1Love
Address: 1Love3h1c5qd9ZRoDKkCLSeWfBKR5MTF7t
Privkey: 5JYtyNYLTRX3dvpN5PCiYF1AKFnETmgBLukCNgfkoBjDHZ2yJp1

Solving Bitcoin Puzzles

This tool can be used to solve the Bitcoin puzzle.

For example, to solve puzzle 6:

$ ./vanitygen++ -F compressed -Z 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 -l $((256-6)) 1PitScNLyp2HCygzad
Difficulty: 376259307977702824629384382540
Pattern: 1PitScNLyp2HCygzad
Address: 1PitScNLyp2HCygzadCh7FveTnfmpPbfp8
Privkey: KwDiBf89QgGbjEhKnhXJuH7LrciVrZi3qYjgd9M7rFU7Tmu6qHxS

To solve puzzle 20:

$ ./vanitygen++ -F compressed -Z 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 -l $((256-20)) 1HsMJxNiV7TLxmoF6u
Difficulty: 376259307977702824629384382540
Pattern: 1HsMJxNiV7TLxmoF6u

Privkey: KwDiBf89QgGbjEhKnhXJuH7LrciVrZi3qYjgd9M7rHfuE2Tg4nJW

Split-Key Vanity Address Generation

This tool supports split-key vanity address generation.

Step 1: Alice generates a key pair on her computer:

$ ./keyconv -G
Pubkey (hex): 044a9fef408ec4db7e264c8f1bfc712a9f6089025bd1980660f7f72c731b7d4c6a6fa5e0fe2174aaa02fffb6ed4a5735fc3109bae2fefe060d8a09bdb8f819f38b
Privkey (hex): B6761A9A575C3C125F24B09A7ADB5F3613BB654F73ADB7097657D737FCD1C310
Address: 1AF518xd1zBNCQh2q1qsneaxAs5nPyXzNf
Privkey: 5KCeK2bzDq2YzUMfwUrNp79mEsk2eeY1dzYtCTTxEgbbFav8RtA

Alice then sends the generated public key and desired prefix (e.g., 1ALice) to Bob. However, Alice must keep her private key secure and never expose it.

Step 2: Bob runs vanitygen++ (or oclvanitygen++) using Alice's public key and the desired prefix (1ALice):

$ ./vanitygen++ -P 044a9fef408ec4db7e264c8f1bfc712a9f6089025bd1980660f7f72c731b7d4c6a6fa5e0fe2174aaa02fffb6ed4a5735fc3109bae2fefe060d8a09bdb8f819f38b 1ALice
Difficulty: 259627881
Pattern: 1ALice
Address: 1ALicexPg59dVvYgtAP8QCphdrFep6nRwy
PrivkeyPart: 5KAuZAyz71TFwgDpiBPyMJX6YFxKyJEJDsr2tNr8uraw6JLBMpQ

Bob sends the generated PrivkeyPart back to Alice. This partial private key does not reveal any information about Alice's final private key.

Step 3: Alice reconstructs the final private key using her private key (generated in step 1) and the PrivkeyPart from Bob:

$ ./keyconv -c 5KAuZAyz71TFwgDpiBPyMJX6YFxKyJEJDsr2tNr8uraw6JLBMpQ 5KCeK2bzDq2YzUMfwUrNp79mEsk2eeY1dzYtCTTxEgbbFav8RtA
Address: 1ALicexPg59dVvYgtAP8QCphdrFep6nRwy
Privkey: 5JcX7HgrPxEbYKcWhtBT83L3BHcdJ8K8p8X1sNHmcJLsSyMNycZ
