I mined it on a new private key. I used `rana` on every cpu I owned for a couple weeks and finally got the 8 characters. What it does is just randomly generate nsecs until it finds an npub with the prefix you specify, and I had it looking for about 10-15 of various lengths.
If I kept it running since then I could have probably mined 9 or even 10 characters by now.
