Title: Generate a bitcoin address in PHP WITHOUT GMP or BCMATH Post by: n4ru on July 03, 2013, 05:11:41 AM I'm trying to find a way to generate a private key and public address using only PHP without either GMP or BCMATH. Can it be done at all? The reason for this is I am limited to a hosting provider on the tor network with neither of these.
What are my options?
