Vanity-ETH is an open-source tool that uses your web browser to generate Ethereum vanity addresses.<br />
|
|
Enter a short prefix and/or suffix of your choice and click <i>Generate</i> to start.

<h2>What's a vanity address?</h2>
|
|
<div class="p">
|
|
A vanity address is an address in which you can choose a part of it to make it appear less random.<br />
|
|
Examples:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><span class="monospace">0xc0ffee254729296a45a3885639AC7E10F9d54979</span></li>
|
|
<li><span class="monospace">0x999999cf1046e68e36E1aA2E0E07105eDDD1f08E</span></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<h2>How it works</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Enter a short prefix and/or suffix of your choice and click <i>Generate</i> to start. Your browser will
|
|
generate lots of random addresses until it finds one that matches your input.<br />
|
|
Once an address is found, you can choose to reveal the private key or click the <i>Save</i> button to
|
|
download a password-encrypted keystore file.<br /><br />
|
|
Adjusting the number of working threads can increase or decrease the speed, depending on your computer's
|
|
capabilities.<br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Security</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
As mentioned earlier, all computations occur solely within your browser. Nothing ever leaves your machine,
|
|
or even your browser tab. There is no database, no server-side code. Everything vanishes when you close your
|
|
browser tab.<br /><br />
|
|
<b>Vanity-ETH cannot and will never store your private key.</b> If you have concerns about its
|
|
trustworthiness, you have three options to ensure the privacy of your key:<br />
|
|
- After loading the web page, you can disconnect from the internet and continue using it
|
|
seamlessly<br />
|
|
- Alternatively, you can download the latest build of Vanity-ETH
|
|
<a href="https://git.io/veth-dl" target="_blank">here</a> and use it on an offline computer<br />
|
|
- The code is 100% open source and available on
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/bokub/vanity-eth" target="_blank">GitHub</a>, allowing you to review it
|
|
thoroughly before usage<br />
|
|
<br />
|
|
Vanity-ETH uses a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator (CSPRNG) to generate Ethereum
|
|
addresses.<br />
|
|
The keystore file is encrypted with an AES-128-CTR cipher using the PBKDF2-SHA256 derivation function with
|
|
65536 hashing rounds.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Other browser-based tools</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Be aware that due to its popularity and open-source nature, Vanity-ETH has been widely copied, leading to
|
|
the existence of websites claiming to provide the same functionality. Sometimes, they are perfect clones
|
|
hosted on very similar domains.<br />
|
|
Most of them do not credit the original code, are not open-source, and may contain malicious code.<br /><br />
|
|
Vanity-ETH has always been the <b>first</b> browser-based ETH vanity address generator, and remains the most
|
|
popular and trusted one.<br /><br />
|
|
To be sure you're on the real Vanity-ETH website, search for
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/search?o=desc&q=Vanity-ETH&s=stars" target="_blank">Vanity-ETH on GitHub</a>,
|
|
find the repository with the most stars (> 600), and click the link in the description. Double check by
|
|
searching <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Vanity-ETH" target="_blank">Vanity-ETH on Google</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Performance</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Vanity-ETH's performance may vary significantly across different browsers. Currently, Chrome provides the
|
|
best results.<br />
|
|
While you can use Vanity-ETH on your phone or tablet, it is unlikely to match the speed of a traditional
|
|
computer.<br /><br />
|
|
<b>N.B:</b> Vanity-ETH is designed to be a user-friendly tool that runs directly in your browser, providing
|
|
easy accessibility without the need to download or install additional software.<br />
|
|
However, browser-based tools have inherent limitations that may affect their performance and efficiency.
|
|
Some dedicated command-line tools are more difficult to use, but may offer better performance.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Compatibility</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Any address generated with Vanity-ETH is ERC-20 compatible, which means you can use it for an ICO, an
|
|
airdrop, or just to withdraw your funds from an exchange.<br />
|
|
The keystore file is 100% compatible with MyEtherWallet, MetaMask, Mist, and geth.
