For finding interesting Ethereum addresses on the GPU (uses SHA3 instead of MD5) there's a tool called profanity.

Amusingly the tool was archived by the author years ago, and just last year a stupid bug in the random initialization code was found (32 bytes of state initialized with ~31 bits of entropy), leading to ~millions of $ in stolen ETH by exploiters.
