I’m fully aware behind the math of finding a wallet actually holding anything… but I was fairly weirded out to come across 10 wallets that quickly. Most had their last txn out roughly 2019.
That or someone is actually using the site to come up with wallet keys.
I'd say odds are that the website is wrong, but you can always load those keys in a wallet and see if they give you control over the actual address.
If that works, I'd assume it's the case that some people have used weak keys (for example, a popular Ethereum wallet would actually generate 256 bits of entropy but accidentally truncate it to 32 bits in an operation), and any funds in those wallets will have been snagged long ago.
Point being: generate a private key properly, and no one will ever find it.
EDIT: I realize this is another page then the one I've seen previously, but I think the same idea applies. That one had support for Ethereum, too, and on the final page was an account with a balance.
EDIT: the aforementioned wallet can also be found as the 0x00 wallet on the very first page. Interesting collision?
EDIT2: it's hardcoded https://github.com/SjorsO/keys-generator/blob/master/ethereu...
But one of them was 1337, another some variant of 420-420xxx +-2 pages, another some variant of 1000000-1000000,xxx,xxx,xxx +-2 pages on those.
I can tell you there was nothing on 8008135 though
There’s a singular emptied walled on 1337 and nothing else +-25 at a minimum from it, I didn’t look any further.
You’re telling me that other people had exactly the same idea, but out of everyone in crypto, ever, it was only a singular person?
That seems more outlandish than the fact there’s one there IMO.
If it were, we'd be finding keys left and right every second.
It is estimated there are 10^80 atoms in the observable universe.
Sooo... what's 4 astronomicals?
