How to Use the Bitcoin Key Generator

This tool is designed to generate random Bitcoin private keys and check if they match a specific Bitcoin address. It's important to note that finding a match is extremely unlikely and this tool is for educational purposes only.

Getting Started

Access the Tool: Open the Bitcoin Key Generator in your web browser.
Understand the Target: The tool is searching for a private key that corresponds to the Bitcoin address: 1BY8GQbnueYofwSuFAT3USAhGjPrkxDdW9

Using the Generator

Set Number of Keys: Enter the number of keys you want to generate per iteration (max 1000) in the "Number of keys per iteration" field.
Set Number of Workers: Choose how many simultaneous processes (workers) you want to use (1-16) in the "Number of workers" field. More workers may increase speed but also use more computer resources.
Display Options:
- Check "Show Private Keys" if you want to see the generated private keys.
- Check "Show Compressed Addresses" to display the Bitcoin addresses for each generated key.
Start Generation: Click the "Start Generating Keys" button to begin the process.
Monitor Progress:
- The tool will display the number of keys checked.
- You can see the rate of key generation (Keys/min and Keys/s).
- If enabled, generated keys and/or addresses will appear at the bottom of the page.
Stop Generation: Click the "Stop Generating Keys" button to halt the process at any time.

Understanding the Results

If a matching key is found (which is extremely unlikely), the tool will display the private key and stop generating.
The generated keys and addresses (if display is enabled) will be shown in a scrollable area at the bottom of the page.
The Bitcoin logo animation speed reflects the key generation rate.

Important Notes

This tool is for educational purposes only. The chances of finding a match are astronomically low.
The generation process uses your computer's resources. Close other applications for better performance.
Never share private keys displayed by this tool, as they could potentially access Bitcoin wallets.

By following these steps, you can use the Bitcoin Key Generator to understand the process of key generation and address matching in the Bitcoin network.
