I've started to delve into the world of deterministic addresses, hierarchy and BIP32. I've also started using the testnet on some blockchain to PHP work. The testnet addresses all start with an "M" and I haven't found anything on getting testnet compatible deterministic addresses generated (they all start with a "1" and are real).. Is it possible to make determistic addressses begin with an "M" and be compatable and usable on testnet ? Or do I have to do the testing on the real blockchain?


Thanks

I found it ... for anyone else that comes along looking ....

I am using the http://bip32.org/#bip32 javascript and html form to get started and while looking through the source code noticed many references to "testnet". Noticed some such reference inside an HTML dropdown menu. I rechecked the web page form and, sure enough there it was, in the upper right hand corner. Just switch the selection from mainnet to testnet.
