NAME

bip44_extpub - generate extended public keys and addresses with bip44 derivation paths

SYNOPSIS

bip44_extpub [OPTIONS] EXTPUB

OPTIONS

-g TYPE, --generate=TYPE

The program will wait for a mnemonic and a password, and then output an extended public key before outputting the addresses.

EXTPUB shouldn't be passed. The program will read two lines from STDIN instead, so that mnemonic key isn't saved in bash history.

TYPE should be either legacy, compat, segwit or taproot.

-c COUNT, --count=COUNT

Will generate COUNT addresses for given extpub (default 10)

DESCRIPTION

This program will help you generate addresses for your cold wallet while keeping it safe. Use it to obtain an extended public key of your account (Bitcoin, account 0) using your mnemonic. You can then use it again with previously generated extended public key to generate more addresses without risking your mnemonic.
