Title: Private key to WIF Post by: Diver6691 on April 25, 2014, 10:17:07 PM Hello,
I follow the steps I found here (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/WIF) , trying to understand how things works. But I can't understand why when I copy/paste the extended key from step 2 (800C28FCA386C7A227600B2FE50B7CAE11EC86D3BF1FBE471BE89827E19D72AA1D) to this on-line calculator (http://www.xorbin.com/tools/sha256-hash-calculator) , I can't take the result of step 3. What I'm doing wrong ? Thanks in advance. Title: Re: Private key to WIF Post by: grue on April 26, 2014, 01:16:59 AM The site you used uses ASCII encoding, but the key is hex encoded.
