ipfs-vanity

Before looking for a vanity address, you may want to look to how to attach a DNS record to IPNS address.

WARNING: This is experimental software and it is not optimized. Use it at your own risk.

ipfs-vanity lets you create vanity keyspairs for IPFS. You can customize the first letters of your IPNS address.

When run, it will write the bytes of the serialized private key to stdout.

Use the -name option to specify the letters you want after the Qm part.

By default, a 2048 bit RSA key will be generated. The keysize can be changed by specifying the -bitsize option, and the key type can be changed by specifying the -type option (currently only RSA is implemented).

Installation

$ go get github.com/llopv/ipfs-vanity

Usage

$ ipfs-vanity -name IPFS > my.key
Generating some 4096 bit RSA keys...
