Hello,
First I am familiar with the comments stated regarding the cracking with ASIC
https://hashcat.net/forum/thread-2057.html
However, it's now 11 years later, and the cost of electricity has significantly increased. I've been using Vast.ai, but I ran out of funds. My next attempt involves cracking a 10-character password consisting of both lower and upper case letters. Using 8 RTX 4090 GPUs, this would take over a month and cost around €3000.
I was given an Antminer S9 Series. Is there any possible way to use its resources to break a LUKS password? By modifying it.
EFF DES cracker
The EFF built custom hardware to brute-force DES back in 1998. Was it ASIC?
