## Create a new Wallet



### Minimal Example



`python btc_wallet_maker.py new`



In this minimal example, the script will use the default options for all parameters and will prompt the user for any necessary information, such as what password to encrypt the wallet with. It will also generate a wallet with a 256-bit mnemonic in English, will not overwrite existing files without confirmation, and will not create extra addresses or generate QR codes unless specified by the user during the prompts.



### Using all arguments:



`python btc_wallet_maker.py new --testnet --wallet_name "mywallet" --create 5 --password "mysecurepassword" --mnemonic_size 256 --language english --overwrite --generate_qr`



or



`python btc_wallet_maker.py new -t -w "mywallet" -c 5 -p "mysecurepassword" -m 256 -l english -o -q`



### Explanation of each `new` argument:



- `new`: This is the action that tells the script to create a new wallet.



- `-t` or `--testnet`: This flag specifies that the wallet should be created for the Bitcoin testnet instead of the mainnet. The testnet is used for testing purposes as the coins have no real value. Default is `False`.



- `-w "mywallet"` or `--wallet_name "mywallet"`: This option allows you to specify a custom name for the wallet. If not provided, the script will use the legacy address as the wallet name.



- `-c 5` or `--create 5`: This argument tells the script to create 5 additional addresses in the wallet. If omitted, no extra addresses are created.



- `-p` or `--password`: This flag indicates that the wallet should be encrypted with a password. If a password is not provided immediately after the flag, the script will prompt the user to enter a password securely during execution.



- `-m 256` or `--mnemonic_size 256`: This option allows you to specify the size of the mnemonic (seed phrase) in bits. The script supports sizes of 128, 160, 192, 224, or 256 bits, with 256 being the most secure. If not specified, the default size is 256 bits.



- `-l english` or `--language english`: This argument sets the language for the mnemonic phrase. If not provided, the default language is English.



- `-o` or `--overwrite`: This flag tells the script to overwrite the wallet file if it already exists. Without this flag, the script will prompt the user before overwriting any files.



- `-q` or `--generate_qr`: This flag requests the generation of QR codes for the wallet addresses. If omitted, no QR codes are generated.



## Import Wallet



### Minimal Example:



`python btc_wallet_maker.py import`



This example operates with default settings, targeting the mainnet and only prompting for critical information such as the mnemonic phrase and encryption password. It assumes the mnemonic is in English, does not overwrite existing files without user permission, and generates QR codes solely at the user's request during the process.



### Using all arguments:



`python btc_wallet_maker.py import --mnemonic "your mnemonic phrase here" --testnet --create 5 --wallet_name "importedwallet" --password --language english --overwrite --generate_qr`



or



`python btc_wallet_maker.py import -m "your mnemonic phrase here" -t -c 5 -w "importedwallet" -p -l english -o -q`



### Explanation of each `import` argument:



- `import`: This is the action that tells the script to import an existing wallet using a mnemonic phrase.



- `-m "your mnemonic phrase here"` or `--mnemonic "your mnemonic phrase here"`: This option allows you to provide the mnemonic phrase directly in the command line. If this argument is not provided or is left empty, the script will prompt the user to enter the mnemonic securely during execution.



- `-t` or `--testnet`: This flag specifies that the wallet should be imported for the Bitcoin testnet instead of the mainnet. The testnet is used for testing purposes as the coins have no real value. Default is `False`.



- `-c 5` or `--create 5`: This argument tells the script to create 5 additional addresses in the wallet. If omitted, no extra addresses are created.



- `-w "importedwallet"` or `--wallet_name "importedwallet"`: This option allows you to specify a custom name for the wallet. If not provided, the script will use the legacy address as the wallet name.



- `-p` or `--password`: This flag indicates that the wallet should be encrypted with a password. If a password is not provided immediately after the flag, the script will prompt the user to enter a password securely during execution.



- `-l english` or `--language english`: This argument sets the language for the mnemonic phrase. The script supports multiple languages, and if not provided, the default language is English.



- `-o` or `--overwrite`: This flag tells the script to overwrite the wallet file if it already exists. Without this flag, the script will prompt the user before overwriting any files.



- `-q` or `--generate_qr`: This flag requests the generation of QR codes for the wallet addresses. If omitted, no QR codes are generated.



## View Wallet



### Minimal Example:



`python btc_wallet_maker.py view`



When you run this minimal command, the script will prompt you interactively for the wallet file name and the password since they are not provided as command-line arguments. This is a user-friendly approach for those who prefer not to enter sensitive information, such as a password, directly into the command line.



### Using all arguments:



`python btc_wallet_maker.py view --wallet your_wallet_filename.wallet --password your_password --key legacy_address`



or



`python btc_wallet_maker.py view -w your_wallet_filename.wallet -p your_password -k legacy_address`



### Explanation of each `view` argument:



- `view`: This is the action argument that tells the script to perform the "view" operation, which is to display the wallet details.



- `--wallet` or `-w`: This argument specifies the wallet file name that you want to view. Replace `your_wallet_filename.wallet` with the actual file name of your wallet.



- `--password` or `-p`: This argument is for the password used to encrypt the wallet file. You need to provide this to decrypt and view the wallet details. Replace `your_password` with the actual password.



- `--key` or `-k`: This optional argument allows you to specify a single key whose value you want to display from the wallet. For example, `legacy_address` would display only the legacy address from the wallet. If this argument is omitted, the script will display all wallet details. Valid options are :  `"mnemonic", "testnet", "public_key_hex", "private_key_hex", "private_key_wif",

    "bip38_encrypted_key", "legacy_address", "segwit_address", "nested_segwit_address",

    "taproot_address", "legacy_derivation_path", "legacy_xpub", "legacy_xprv",

    "segwit_derivation_path", "segwit_xpub", "segwit_xprv", "nested_segwit_derivation_path",

    "nested_segwit_xpub", "nested_segwit_xprv", "taproot_derivation_path",

    "taproot_xpub", "taproot_xprv", "addresses_legacy", "addresses_segwit", "addresses_nested_segwit", "addresses_taproot"`



## Features



- **Local Execution**: The script runs on your local machine, eliminating the risks associated with online wallet generators.

- **Mnemonic Phrase Generation**: Securely generate a new mnemonic phrase for wallet creation.

- **Wallet Import**: Import an existing wallet using a mnemonic phrase.

- **Multiple Address Types**: Support for legacy, SegWit, nested SegWit, and Taproot addresses.

- **PBKDF2HMAC**: Derives a secure encryption key from the user's password using 300,000 iterations of SHA-512.

- **AES-256 Encryption**: Wallet details are encrypted using AES-256 in CBC mode with a unique initialization vector for each encryption.

- **Scrypt Key Derivation**: Used in BIP38 encryption to provide a high level of resistance against brute-force attacks.



## Wallet Details



The exported wallet includes the following details:



- **Mnemonic**: The mnemonic phrase used to generate the wallet's seed.

- **Testnet**: Indicates whether the wallet is for the Bitcoin testnet.

- **Public Key Hex**: The hexadecimal representation of the wallet's public key.

- **Private Key Hex**: The hexadecimal representation of the wallet's private key.

- **Private Key WIF**: The Wallet Import Format (WIF) of the private key.

- **BIP38 Encrypted Key**: The BIP38 standard encrypted private key.
