Alternatives to Onionmine

This page covers other, third-party Onion Service key management implementations.

Check also the Onion Service implementations page for key management support built-in core Tor software.

For vanity address generation

Other vanity address implementations, including the mkp224o generator and Onionmine itself (for comparison):

• mkp224o:
  • Written in C.
  • For CPUs.
  • Requires a UNIX-like platform, like Linux, *BSD, or Cygwin.
  • Supported by Onionmine.
• Onionmine:
  • A wrapper around mkp224o.
  • Also aids the process of getting CA-signed TLS certificates.
• oniongen-go:
  • Written in Go.
  • For CPUs.
  • Works on Linux and Windows, uses regex.
• oniongen-rs:
  • Written in Rust.
  • For CPUs.
  • Works similarly to oniongen-go, but is written in Rust.
• oniongen-hs:
  • Written in Haskell.
  • For CPUs.
• curvy:
  • Written in Go.
  • For CPUs.
• onion-vanity-address:
  • Written in Go.
  • For CPUs.
  • Claims to use an algorithm faster than mkp224o and oniongen-go.
• tor-v3-vanity
  • Written in Rust.
  • For GPUs (NVIDIA).
• Granex::
  • Written in Rust.
  • For CPUs.

For proof-of-possesion

Existing implementations for proof-of-possesion:

• HARICA's onion-csr implementation:
  • Supported by Onionmine.
• Sauteed Onions's onion-csr implementation in Go.
• Digicert's onionmaker.
