stellar-vanity-wallet

Generate vanity public Stellar (XLM) wallets from a keyword.

Generate Public, Secret and BIP39 mnemonic seed.

Install

$ npm install -g stellar-vanity-wallet

Usage

$ stellar-vanity-wallet [-p term] [-m term] [-s term]

• -p prefix - Match only at the beginning of the Public Key. (please see limitations below)
• -m middle - Match anywhere within the Public Key.
• -s suffix (default) - Match only at the end of the Public Key.

Note about prefixes

Stellar public keys always being with the letter G. The second letter can only be an A, B, C or D (Why?). The prefix match for this tool looks for the prefix after the beginning G.

So if you would like to look for the prefix GAME, run the tool looking for AME, and you will end up with a public key that starts with GAME.

Another example, if you look for a prefix DOG, your public key will start with GDOG.

Q/A

Why?

Create a prefix/suffix to easily identify your wallet. Easier to remember, harder to mess up. Don't lose your lumens.

Can I look for multiple vanity terms at once?

Yes you can, but beware this can take a very long time. You must use the full syntax with flags:

# Starts with GAP and ends in HA 
$ stellar-vanity-wallet -p ap -s ha

How long does this take?

It varies per machine, but single threaded performance is roughly:

• 1 character, instant
• 2 characters, ~15 seconds
• 3 characters, 5~10 minutes
• 4 characters, 1-2 hours
• 5+ characters, ... coming soon

Why are you giving me a mnemonic seed?

I wanted to be able to generate a Ledger Nano S compatible seed (BIP39 24-word mnemonic). So I used this to generate a vanity wallet (offline), to load into my Ledger.

Only single threaded, what is this crap?

Use other tools for that.
