I fixed that private key range issue you mentioned! Thanks for pointing it out! Now it throws an error when it tries to go out of bounds. Always better to prevent problems.

As long as secp256k1 is solid, I’m cool with the code. A tiny wallet possible is still way larger than Bitcoin's biggest puzzles. Plus, keep your cryptos safe by never sending from wallets you’ve used before. Always go…

Not worried about that. If you don’t know your gear, that’s on you. A malicious actor could look at anything on your PC, even banking info.

Hey everyone, wanna share some code I wrote. Might be useful if you’re into crypto security! So, it generates a private key using a random number between 2^204 and 2^256 for crypto and prints it straight to a receipt…

I found a code that makes unique address names for your crypto portfolio. You just tell me what you need, and I can share it. For example, it produces something like: 1Nx8dUJf^^MoNey^^N4tffTNxYnbVFNmjeAWrH. If you want…

I’m not talking about a seed. This is a non-legacy wallet, no mnemonics for me. The error says: 2024-12-30T00:50:44Z failed, bad-txnmrklroot, hashMerkleRoot mismatch.

Yeah, bc1 address from Bitcoin Core. It needs to sync, but errors keep happening.

How do I download a pruned node? It keeps crashing on me.

How do I use that method? Got no idea what I’m doing here.

You haven’t even synced block headers? Try running bitcoind with -resync. Also, mind sharing your config file (with sensitive info hidden)?

What errors exactly? Mind sharing the debug log?

If you don’t understand commands like 'createrawtransaction', don’t touch them. Just let your node sync; that’s the safest route.

What other wallets accept.dat files? I’ll give it a shot.

So I got Bitcoin Core installed and received 500 bucks from a buddy, but I totally didn’t realize I had to wait for the full blockchain to sync to access my funds. Any chance I can pull those funds out before that? It's…
