Basic Examples  (11)

Encode a private key as a WIF-compressed format to be used in a transaction on the Bitcoin blockchain:

Encode a public key as a Pay-to-Public-Key-Hash Bitcoin address:

Encode a public key as an Ethereum address:

Encode a public key as an ARK address:

Encode a public key as a bloxberg address:

Encode an ed25519 public key as a Tezos address:

Encode a secp256k1 public key as a Tezos address:

Encode a prime256v1 public key as a Tezos address:

Encode an ed25519 public key as a Cardano enterprise address:

This is equivalent to explicitly specifying the key in the association:

Encode two ed25519 public keys (payment and stake keys) as a Cardano payment address:

Encode an ed25519 public key as a Cardano stake address:

Bitcoin  (2)

Encode a public key as a Bitcoin address:

Encode a public key as a Bitcoin testnet address:

Cardano  (1)

Encode two ed25519 public keys (payment and stake keys) as a Cardano payment address:

Ethereum  (1)

Encode a public key as an Ethereum address:

bloxberg  (1)

Encode a public key as a bloxberg address:

Tezos  (3)

Encode an ed25519 public key as a Tezos address:

Encode a secp256k1 public key as a Tezos address:

Encode a prime256v1 public key as a Tezos address:

Possible Issues  (2)

Encoding a public key as WIF format will return an error:

When encoding a hexadecimal string as a Tezos address, BlockchainKeyEncode will assume it is an ed25519 public key:
