you have to use their silly new "descriptor" features/commands
yes they totally went head to the wall headache method of just trying to import a simple privkey and turned it into some elaborate game theory you have to play with a wallet now
yep they seemingly dont want to make things easy/straightforward. they think if they can get users to need a user manual. then it shows they are smarter then their users.. rather than actually being smart and making it easier for users
whatever software you are using there is usually a guide
some software dont use the exact "import descriptor" command. so check out your softwares features/commands list
if its rip160.. your not using a private key thats the public key
adding salt is not "encryption" its just messing around changing the key. thus getting an error if the checksums dont match
a bitcoin private key (before seeds) starts with a 5, L or K
No its hexed 66 length private adress, if it validates my compressed adress i think so its private seed or semen idk lol.. So simply just to not add this riped hash to the other which are 64 lengths? Just the site display it i didnt know much
