No - I want to know the calculation of first 35 characters in wif (compress or uncompressed) format remaining 17 will be find with brute force.
A private key is not calculated from anything - it is simply a random number between 1 and (a little less than) 2
256. To convert from a raw private key to WIF, you first take your 64 character hexadecimal private key, add the 0x80 network byte at the start, at an 0x01 at the end if it is going to be a compressed key, add the first 4 bytes of the double SHA256 of this string at the end as a checksum, then convert all of this from Base16 to Base58. Reverse the process to go from WIF back to raw hex.
But you are asking a question about a method you are (probably incorrectly) trying rather than asking a question about the underlying problem itself. What part of a private key do you currently have and in what format?
Ok let me explain in another way.
Here is the address: 1PaJvUDUKm3Xr4FJJZS53ooNFFZXVZk3v
Here is the Public key: 02fd9507ccb8ea63c3b7011cc594f8049ebc0063df7cff6ac960d3442f91fd6b81
Now lets suppose this is the private key in Wif format starting with 5: 5KJyGeq5gngHP25WMwpNb2jGwRGGerdrasY7rBzKXFVBZ7ZkWBn
Split into 2 parts
First 35 characters : 5KJyGeq5gngHP25WMwpNb2jGwRGGerdras
Last 17 characters : Y7rBzKXFVBZ7ZkWBn
Now my question is that how can i Calculate the exact first part of this address.
because i know if i get the first part then remining 17 will be find with brute force.
