"ATTACKSAFE SOFTWARE" includes all popular attacks on Bitcoin.
Let’s run a list of all attacks:
!./attacksafe -list
Let’s choose -tool: polynonce_attack
To get a specific HEXvalue R,S,Zfor the signature ECDSA, we previously added data RawTX through the utility echoto a text document and saved it as a file RawTX.txt
Thanks to the value on the secp256k1 curve from Hal Finney LAMBDA and BETA revealed to us the same initial bits 128 bits, since the initial bits of the private key to the Bitcoin Wallet begin withBinary number (4 digits): "1111" // Hex number: "F" //
Let’s check the HEX of the private key:
Install the modulebitcoin
!pip3 install bitcoin
Let’s run the code:
from bitcoin import *
with open("PrivateKey.txt","r") as f:
content = f.readlines()
content = [x.strip() for x in content]
f.close()
outfile = open("PrivateKeyAddr.txt","w")
for x in content:
outfile.write(x+":"+pubtoaddr(encode_pubkey(privtopub(x), "bin_compressed"))+"\n")
outfile.close()

Bitcoin is the world's first decentralized digital currency, and it has revolutionized the way we think about money. One of the most fascinating aspects of Bitcoin is the vast array of utilities that have been developed to support it. These utilities are designed to help users interact with the Bitcoin network in a safe and secure manner,…
In the last article: “Blockchain Attack Vectors & Vulnerabilities to Smart Contracts” we reviewed all known attacks on the blockchain, in this article we will talk about crypto threats again and we will talk about identifying vulnerabilities for Cold wallets, as well as for Hot wallets. Blockchain is the underlying tech layer made up of a decentralized…
In this article, we implement an efficient Frey-Rück Attack algorithm for signing ECDSAa transaction on the Bitcoin blockchain. In our earlier posts, we touched on the topic of signature vulnerability several times ECDSA. With a critical vulnerability in the Bitcoin blockchain transaction, we can solve the rather difficult discrete logarithm problem to extract the ECDSA secret key"K" (NONCE) from the vulnerable signature in order to ultimately…
