Hi guys,

I am carrying out a project, for which I want to identify possible vulnerabilities in different cryptocurrencies. The idea is to see how the keys are managed by each purse of different cryptocurrencies and in case of not finding vulnerabilities, at least make a guide of good practices when creating them,

I've been looking at code for a while, but I can not find which scripts are exactly where the keys are managed. If someone can help me out, I'll be very grateful,

Best regards,
According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Hi,

the wallet management in core is done in the src/wallet/ directory. You can find some key management functions here : https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/598323911e930d67e678e464353eb570ad3bf2b7/src/wallet/wallet.h#L845

Thank you very much Darosior, do you know any other script where I can review the key management?

In core ? (btw C++ is not a scripting language)

Sorry, I used a bad term, I wanted to say that if you knew some more ".cpp" or ".h" file that contains the key management,

If somehow I could find a list to find all of them, it would be wonderful,

As already pointed out above, you can find them in the src/wallet/ directory.
