Q: How does this work?
A: Private keys are a number.
Private keys can be very large numbers.
Private keys can be very small numbers.

A private key with the value 0 would generate the address: 16QaFeudRUt8NYy2yzjm3BMvG4xBbAsBFM
A private key with the value 1 would generate the address: 1EHNa6Q4Jz2uvNExL497mE43ikXhwF6kZm
A private key with the value 2 would generate the address: 1LagHJk2FyCV2VzrNHVqg3gYG4TSYwDV4m
A private key with the value 127 would generate the address: 1FB8cZijTpRQp3HX8AEkNuQJBqApqfTcX7

For every page requested, 128 keys are generated.
For page 1, private keys with the value 0 to 127 are generated.
For page 2, private keys with the value 128 to 255 are generated.
For page 3, private keys with the value 256 to 383 are generated.

For page P, private keys with the value (P-1) * 128 to (P-1) * 128 + 127 are generated.

Q: So you don't store a database of every single key?
A: No.

Q: All keys are generated on the fly, based upon the page number?
A: Yes.

Q: That means, somewhere, on some page, my private key is listed?
