![]() ![]() There is a whole family of such curves that are widely known and used. An elliptic curve is a curve defined by the equation y² = x³ + ax + b with chosen a and b. The first thing we need to go is to apply the ECDSA, or Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm, to our private key. This part is almost identical to what we discussed in the Bitcoin article, so if you read that one, you can skip it (unless you need a refresher). ![]() We need to apply one hash function to get the public key and another one to get the address. Here, we’ll use that key to get the public address and then the Ethereum wallet address of that private key.Ĭreating the Bitcoin wallet address from the private key is a bit complicated. In the first article of this series, we generated a bitcoin private key: 60cf347dbc59d31c1358c8e5cf5e45b822ab85b79cb32a9f3d98184779a9efc2. ![]()
