Hey guys, I'm trying to benchmark my GPU setup with BitCrack and need some solid open-source wordlists or keyspaces to measure performance. Anyone have links to reliable datasets that are standard for testing MH/s? Just want to dial in my settings before starting a serious run.

Hey all, I've found some solid open-source wordlists like rockyou.txt and leipzig.txt, both of which can be downloaded from GitHub, and they've served me well for testing the speed of my BitCrack rig. I also use the 'pwgen' command in Linux to generate large keyspaces for stress testing. Has anyone else come across any particularly useful tools for this kind of thing?

I've had good luck with the rockyou.txt wordlist, but you might also want to check out the leetspeak.txt file from the same github repo - it's got some more obscure passwords in there. I also found a keyspace sample on the hashcat forums that uses a combination of common usernames and passwords.

I've had decent results with the RockYou2021 wordlist, but if you're looking for something even more aggressive, the leaked LinkedIn passwords from a few years back are a good option. Be careful though, those ones are pretty big and can take up a fair amount of storage space.

Grab the Bitcoin Puzzle ranges from GitHub to bench your actual hashrate. If you just need a stress test, rockyou.txt is the classic choice.

Honestly, just generate a dummy incremental range to test raw MH/s since dictionary attacks are rare with BitCrack. If you really need files, grab the standard lists from SecLists on GitHub, but random generation is usually better for stressing your GPU.

I've been using the ones from Weakpass and passwordsgenerator.net, they have some massive lists that are great for testing. You can also try the probabilities project on github, it's got some solid keyspace samples. Has anyone tried integrating these with BitCrack's latest build, curious to know if it's improved performance

Definitely grab the ranges from the Bitcoin Puzzle GitHub repo for real keyspace testing. If you just need raw wordlists, hit up SecLists or the standard hashcat dumps, they work fine for warming up the GPU.

I've had good luck with the RockYou and Leet wordlists from the cracking team on GitHub, they're both relatively small but cover a decent range of common passwords. The RockYou list in particular is a good choice if you want to test for more obscure variants like numbers and special chars. Be warned, though, it's not the most comprehensive list out there.
