Frequently Asked Questions

A vanity Ethereum address is a custom cryptocurrency wallet address that contains specific characters or patterns you choose. For example, instead of a random address like 0x742d..., you could have 0x000000... or 0xABC... It functions exactly like a normal address.

Our generator uses optimized client-side code (WebAssembly) to rapidly generate and test Ethereum addresses directly in your browser until it finds one matching your desired pattern. The process is completely safe - you receive both the address and its corresponding private key without it ever leaving your device.

Yes! Our vanity address generator is completely free for all supported patterns. Since it runs on your own device, there are no server costs for us to pass on to you.

Generation time depends on your pattern length and device speed: 1-5 characters are usually instant, while 6-7 characters might take a few minutes. Each additional character increases difficulty by 16x.

Yes, when generated correctly. Our tool uses profanity2, which is specifically designed to be cryptographically secure and uses proper entropy. Your private key is generated securely and only you have access to it.

No. Private keys are derived client-side in your browser using the seed found by our GPUs. The keys never leave your device and are never sent to our servers.

Yes! Always import your private key into a trusted wallet (like MetaMask) and verify that it generates the same address before sending any funds. This is a best practice.

Ethereum addresses use hexadecimal characters: 0-9 and A-F. You can create patterns with any combination of these 16 characters.

Currently, we support either a prefix OR a suffix per generation to keep speeds optimal. Generating both simultaneously is exponentially harder.
