Cracking Passwords on my Crypto Mining Rig (how fast is it?)

In this video, I perform an experiment to see how fast my Ethereum Mining Rig can crack/recover passwords. The results are astounding!

My Mining rig has 5 graphic cards - RTX 3060, RTX 2060, 3xGTX 1660 Super. I usually mine ethereum on my mining rig and the hash rate it gives is around 179 MH/s. Mining crypto and cracking passwords are very similar, which is why I decided to conduct this experiment and put my rig to the test.

In the video, I perform two cracking attacks

• Dictionary Attack
• BruteForce Attack Both these attacks are performed on sample password hashes (generated from different hashing algorithms i.e., MD5 and SHA256) using a fast password recovery tool named hashcat.

DISCLAIMER: This video is intended for educational purposes only. All the experiments done are performed in a controlled lab setup and not on real targets. The main goal is to show the importance of choosing a strong password and using a strong hashing algorithm. This video does not encourage viewers to perform illegal activities.
