Ethereum WarDialer

Named after ‘War dialing’ from the 80s, this was a little Proof of Concept script to ‘hack’ Ethereum wallets by generating random wallet seeds and checking whether they have a balance. Basically “discovering existing wallets”. If a wallet with balance higher than 0 ETH was found, an alert would be sent through a Telegram bot.
