Cryptowall is an offline Docker container which generates random crypto wallets. It prints out the most useful informations: private key, public key and address. With those informations, you will be able to receive funds and recover your wallet any time.

It currently supports Bitcoin, Ethereum, Monero and Iota tokens.

Motivation

I want a tool to easily generate random wallets on the fly for various cryptocurrencies.

Scripts need to be easily understood.

• Scripts are written as short as possible.
• Methods used are described below & sources are given.
• Commented scripts can be found in the folder named after the token.

Wallets need to be generated offline to prevent any leak.

• A Docker container run with --network=none is the way to go.

Usage

Cryptowall currently supports Bitcoin, Ethereum and Iota tokens. Create an issue if you want a specific token to be implemented.

$ docker run --network=none lapwat/cryptowall btc eth xmr iota

Methods used

Bitcoin / Ethereum

I used the method and script described in this excellent article from Vincent Kobel. He explaines how to generate an ECDSA keypair with OpenSSL and how to derive the public key into the corresponding address.

I used this method to convert the private key into Wallet Import Format. I used this technique to convert the public key into the corresponding Bitcoin address.

Monero

I followed the official Mnemonic (Electrum or Deterministic) Style explained at the bottom of this page.

Iota

I used the class AddressGenerator from the official python library pyota.
