This script generates a hash, but somewhere it did not correctly write something in the function.
from bitcoin import *
import os
import hashlib
import base58
while True:
priv = random_key()
pubkey = privtopub(priv)
compress_pubkey = False
if (compress_pubkey):
if (ord(pubkey[-2:].decode('hex')) % 2 == 0):
pubkey_compressed = '02'
else:
pubkey_compressed = '03'
pubkey_compressed += pubkey[2:66]
hex_str = bytearray.fromhex(pubkey_compressed)
else:
hex_str = bytearray.fromhex(pubkey)
key_hash = hash160(hex_str)
def hash160(hex_str):
sha = hashlib.sha256()
rip = hashlib.new('ripemd160')
sha.update(hex_str)
rip.update( sha.digest() )
print ( "key_hash = \t" + rip.hexdigest() )
return rip.hexdigest() # .hexdigest() is hex ASCII
I checked the script to work. Did print (pubkey)
. The public keys are displayed as a result, but I don't need to get key_hash. Unfortunately when I do print ("key_hash = \ t" + rip.hexdigest ())
The result is not executed! I don't know programming. Help fix the code!
After code rearrangement:
from bitcoin import *
import os
import hashlib
import base58
def hash160(hex_str):
sha = hashlib.sha256()
rip = hashlib.new('ripemd160')
sha.update(hex_str)
rip.update(sha.digest())
print("key_hash = \t" + rip.hexdigest())
return rip.hexdigest() # .hexdigest() is hex ASCII
while True:
priv = random_key()
pubkey = privtopub(priv)
compress_pubkey = False
if (compress_pubkey):
if (ord(pubkey[-2:].decode('hex')) % 2 == 0):
pubkey_compressed = '02'
else:
pubkey_compressed = '03'
pubkey_compressed += pubkey[2:66]
hex_str = bytearray.fromhex(pubkey_compressed)
else:
hex_str = bytearray.fromhex(pubkey)
key_hash = hash160(hex_str)
Output:
key_hash = b0ac6f690633331af487f594dd3c42c6c67ce085
key_hash = de735b3046545f63c8cb2f7d44b7f24a8b769ad7
key_hash = 49b0ae2b541832797680b977ca9e374d1a621787

... And So On
Note that there is an infinity loop (while True
), consider replacing with a specific number of iterations.
