The bitcoin “Rare Address Hall of Fame” is a collection of the seven most incredibly unlikely vanity addresses ever to be generated. flatfly has been diligently maintaining and vetting new submissions of these most remarkable bitcoin addresses on this bitcointalk.org thread since July 2012.
What makes them remarkable is how difficult they are to generate. lightlord, the owner of one of the latest inductees, 1EMBARraSSABLezwXrdWu1dDAVMMdJ7Ci2, estimates it would take 10,000 years for a two GPU setup to find another 13 character long real-word address (or a difficulty of 15.9 quintillion).
Only the impossibly unlikely and/or totally lucky are added to the HoF. To be included flatfly requires that you prove you control the address, so ones like 1BitcoinEaterAddressDontSendf59kuE and 1111111111111111111114oLvT2 are excluded.

How long did it take you to generate this address?!
Hi There,
It took many months and hundreds of dollars of electricity cost on a custom tuned 10 blade RX580 GPU rig running over 500 concurrent variations. Just below the rig’s memory limits. I was hunting for Heavy Metal but got Heavy Metal Song. Completely dumb luck. I will take it.
Difficulty for 14 characters is something like 4.8751940841603E+24 and on my rig running 400+MKeys/S which equates in time to 386,478,475 years. Yep 1/3 of a billion years to find a 14 character prefix. Winning the lottery is orders magnitude more likely in your lifetime then to find a 14 character prefix.
The other fun one that popped up over the run was CatInTheHat which was 11 characters 4 words. I am good now with a lifetime of 9, 10 and 11 character addresses. I dismantled the rig and sold the parts on ebay to pay the power cost. A fun distraction.
Cheers,
Tom
