Oh, that’s a testnet address. You can mess around with fake Bitcoins there. Just to play it safe!

As of now, there's no pricing based on key size. It's something we could explore later if there's enough demand. I need to test some split-vanity-mining software first and might include details in my thesis eventually.

Check this link for clarity. When you combine two specific private keys, the resulting one does map to '166'. Currently, vanitygen cannot handle that kind of operation, but I'm looking into creating something that can.

It might take off if a lot of people suddenly want fancy addresses and are willing to pay. But I'm not holding my breath for that to happen.

The pool runs using Google App Engine and my node's on Amazon, so I'm not spending much on hardware. Software will take time to improve, but I'm not too business-savvy, so handling investments might slow me down. What…

All donations are appreciated! Here's my address: 1B98qJ1NT6BNdnGp1fgCshAvWP8i4grdy7

Just set up a mining pool to make vanity addresses risk-free. You can create one without needing to know the private key. Check this out if you're curious about how it works.

You should have insisted on access to the funds earlier. Multi-sig wallets could have saved you the trouble. Do you know where your husband keeps the crypto? Get the wallet info if you can.
