What is Bitcoin vanity address?

How do I know that a Banity has a pattern in a Bitcoin vanity address?

That's simple! The pattern that can be found in the public address is highlighted in bold in an easily identifiable manner. All public addresses have at least 8 human-readable letters.

How special is my Banity?

In order to own a Bitcoin vanity address with 8 human-readable letters – let’s say the name "elonmusk", someone has to generate 588 private keys before a random chance occurs, which on average starts with “1elonmusk”. The longer the vanity address is, the more difficult it becomes on average to find such address. If you scroll through the gallery, you will find that those with 8 letters are the majority of the 1001 Banitys in total. This is because the difficulty increases exponentially.

Why are there no 7-char or less vanity addresses in the Banity Collection?

What makes the Banity collection so special is that it has 8 and more characters. From this length it is particularly difficult to achieve the desired result. With a little patience, however, the computing power of a normal computer could find a vanity address with up to 7 characters. Therefore, there are no 7-char or less vanity addresses in the Banity collection.

How can I buy a Banity?

Banity will be available for purchase on our website through a presale and later through a public sale on Opensea. During the presale you have the option of creating and buying your own Bitcoin vanity address.

Will I be able to trade a Banity?

Yes, Banity is tradable on Opensea. The primary marketplace for Banity is not on Banity’s website.
