Note
|
By default, the library is set to the regtest network and uses hardcoded 16 bytes entropy. |
npx bitcointestwalletsgenerator
or
git clone [email protected]:bitcoin-studio/bitcoin-test-wallets-generator.git node generate_wallets.js
Run with a new set of entropy
|
Note
|
16 bytes entropy = 12 words mnemonic 32 bytes entropy = 24 words mnemonic |
npx bitcointestwalletsgenerator --entropy 16
Set the network
npx bitcointestwalletsgenerator --network mainnet
Set the network and entropy
npx bitcointestwalletsgenerator -n testnet -e 32
Verbose
npx bitcointestwalletsgenerator -v
Help
npx bitcointestwalletsgenerator --help
Check that private key import was successful with the listlabels command in Bitcoin Core console
