pub2rmd mode issue

[nft30001]

./keyhunt -c btc -m pub2rmd -f 160 -q -R -n 10000000 -t 3 -r 20000000000000:ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff 
or
./keyhunt -c btc -m pub2rmd -f 160 -q -R -n 10000000 -t 3 -r 20000000000000:ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff -s 1

2 questions

1. why range is not working in this mode , i guess i should see "Setting up base key". but no information
2. in Random mode after every 10m scan CLI should display like new base key info within range , or even range is not working in this mode, still this should print new base key always.

Try it without the -R option, that option overwrite the -r 20000000000000:ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

example:

albertobsd $ ./keyhunt -m pub2rmd -f tests/puzzleswopublickey.txt -r 20000000000000:ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

if you add the -R option the output change:

albertobsd $ ./keyhunt -m pub2rmd -f tests/puzzleswopublickey.txt -r 20000000000000:ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff -R

Idk what are you trying to do, the pub2rmd was a test, it is only try to find the publickey of a unknow RMD160 hash but the odds are worse than than the odd of find the privatekey.

i think in BSGS -R is not over writing -r. Right? so why this one overwrite in pub2rmd?

Let me check this with calm, maybe i have some mistake in the code, this mode pub2rmd was a experiment and i write it in some hour while i was drunk so maybe i mess it

[sigkill]

Do you have a fix or a version where pub2rmd works? I keep getting 0 keys per second in this mode, with the test files and files I've created.

[albertobsd]

Sorry for that but this experimental mode will be removed in a few days

[ZEVLOUS]

why its removed?

[albertobsd]

why its removed?

because find a public key is twice difficult than find a 256 private key
