A simple program to bruteforce a bitcoin address private key

Naeon secures data in untrusted off-site storage through a layered approach: files are compressed, then AES-256 encrypted with a randomly generated 128-character passphrase yielding approximately 762 bits of entropy — far beyond the reach of both classical and quantum brute-force attacks. The ciphertext is obfuscated by prepending and appending random byte blocks, making the result unidentifiable as an encrypted file. The payload is then sharded into one private chunk — holding the encryption key and part of the data — and multiple equal-sized public chunks, each renamed to its SHA-512 hash and given a uniform timestamp to prevent metadata inference. ...
