Scallion is a GPU-accelerated (OpenCL) vanity key generator that creates custom .onion addresses for Tor hidden services and vanity GPG keys. It runs on Mono/.NET and brute-forces RSA key hashes on the GPU to find addresses matching a chosen prefix.

Use cases

• generate a custom vanity .onion address for a tor hidden service
• create a vanity gpg key with a chosen prefix
• brute-force onion hashes using a gpu
• find tor v2 onion addresses starting with a specific word

When to choose

• you specifically need a vanity Tor v2 onion address and have an OpenCL-capable GPU
• you want a GPU-accelerated vanity GPG key generator

When to avoid

• you need Tor v3 onion addresses - the project does not support them and v2 addresses no longer work
• you need a maintained tool - the project is explicitly unmaintained and depends on deprecated OpenSSL versions
• you don't have an Nvidia GPU or an old OS/docker image to satisfy the OpenSSL dependency
