This project was written in May 2013 for educational purposes.
Your Bitcoin Private Key is a unique secret number that only you know. It can be encoded in a number of different formats. Below we show the Bitcoin Address and Public Key that corresponds to your Private Key as well as your Private Key in the most popular encoding formats (WIF, WIFC, HEX, B64). The process of generating a Bitcoin wallet address from a private key is not that difficult if you pay close attention to the aforementioned steps. If your private key is full or compressed, the resulting addresses will look different, but both of them are just as valid.
Modern cryptocurrency wallets should use hierarchical deterministic (HD) keys instead.
Bitcoin Public Key And Private Key
Introduction
btckeygenie is a standalone Bitcoin keypair/address generator written in Go.btckeygenie generates an ECDSA secp256k1 keypair, dumps the public key incompressed and uncompressed Bitcoin address, hexadecimal, and base64 formats,and dumps the private key in Wallet Import Format (WIF), Wallet Import FormatCompressed (WIFC), hexadecimal, and base64 formats.
btckeygenie includes a lightweight Go package called btckey to easily generatekeypairs, and convert them between compressed and uncompressed varieties ofBitcoin Address, Wallet Import Format, and raw bytes.
