Title: How do I create a cypher using a Bitcoin public key? Post by: Elwar on November 17, 2013, 08:45:58 AM I need to create a cypher of some data and I would like to use a Bitcoin public key to encrypt it with its corresponding private key to decrypt it.
I am doing this in Java and looking at the Cypher class I see RSA and other keys but I doubt they can be used with Bitcoin addresses. Is there an easy way to do this or some sample java code I could use? Am I correct in the belief that creating a cypher of data with a public key is different from the bitcoin client's creation of signing a message? |
