grin-vanity 0.1.0

A commnand-line vanity address generator for Grin. I made this mostly for fun and to familiarize myself with the various Grin libraries written in Rust. The code is currently a lot slower than expected since deriving a slatepack address from a seed seems to be ~1000x slower that deriving it from a raw public key.

# Example usage
The output below depicts an adrress found with the pattern `grin1test` and its corresponding seed.

```bash
$ grin-vanity --threads 30 --pattern grin1test --interval 180

# Estimated Time
Guessing a private key with the chosen prefix has an element of luck to it. The following table depicts a rough estimate on what should  be expected on a Ryzen 5950x using 30 threads. Your results may vary.

| Prefix        | Eta        |
| ------------- | ---------- |
|grin1        	| < 1s       |
|grin10         | < 1s       |
|grin100        | < 1s       |
|grin1000       | 30 s       |
|grin10000      | 16 min     |
|grin100000     | 9 h        |
|grin1000000    | 12 d       |
