<p>I did some code today for address generation in bitcoin; due to
its results being at odds with a popular library online, I wanted
someone to check my handiwork. If you happen to find digital
currency tech as interesting as I do, please contact me directly
off this list.</p>
<hr width="100%" size="2">
<p>It's a pretty brief collection of statements for public key
generation (but using an UNCOMPRESSED public key -normally
compressed public keys are used in bitcoin to generate addresses,
and that might explain the discrepancy...) It follows a
methodology laid out in an introductory article on generating
addresses. The code is brief, but the theory can be a challenge.<br>
</p>
<p>No, this is not directly BSD related; but seeing as how this user
group is the deeper end of the technical pool, perhaps someone
else would find it interesting too (we can IMMEDIATELY reconnoiter
off this list...)</p>
<p>Sorry for the Email if you're not into it, but that's all I'll
say on this channel. [If the date was close to the next meeting, I
would just ask there; but time is tight for me, and we're still a
couple of weeks away from that...]</p>
