I understand that probability is insanely low, but I want to compensate that with the use of multiple rtx 4090 GPUs.

Anyway is there a way to use Hashcat to brute a wallet if I know only it's public address?

The probability isn't insanely low, it's unimaginably low. It's 5,444,517,870,735,015,415,413,993,718,908,291,383,296 possible combinations, which would take 49,327,007,000,000,000,000 years to crack a single key using 10 4090s
