The Ethereum Collider, origonally developed by Trent Pierce, is a python script created to repeatedly create ethereum wallet addresses in search of a match. The collider first creates an address and private key. Next it sends a request to etherscan.io to check for a balance. If the balance is 0, the collider loops back to the top and restarts this process. If a balance is found, the program will stop and print the address, private key, and balance.
- Pure Python code
- Cross-platform code
- No-dependencies
- Generates addresses quickly
You need Python 2.7 (not tested on 3.x).
Just launch ethcollider.py to begin generating addresses and their private keys; and checking them for balances in etherscan.
The console will update as addresses are generated. If you find a match, the program will stop and print out the wallet balance, address, and private key.
Random source for key generation :
- CryptGenRandom in Windows
- /dev/urandom in Unix-like
