Topic: Public key bitcoin start with 04? (Read 1260 times)
I read many answer, almost is code, programming. Someone has knowledge about informatics can understand it. I can't. So many code, I think it's PHP.
You have a corrupt wallet, but you are asking the wrong question, so you are going to get wrong answers.

First, how did you get a "corrupt wallet"? What kind of wallet. We'll assume it's Bitcoin-Qt for some instructions.
Starting Bitcoin-Qt with the option -salvagewallet will scan the wallet for addresses/keys and attempt to recover them.
If that doesn't bring back any addresses or fails, the next step is to use pywallet to scan the whole file for you to recover anything that resembles a public key. Read, and be a technical person already:

I have a modified version of pywallet here that will keep scanning even when there are serious errors:

A typical command to do this:
pywallet-keyskip2.py --recover --recov_device wallet.dat --recov_size 1Mio --recov_outputdir .

It's difficult to understand. hix. Why can't I find one exactly answer? Now I don't know how to do with my corrupt wallet.dat.
The data you need to recover is the private key. If the wallet has been encrypted, you are even more out of luck.
Here's a thread that has some information to identify what hex is around private keys:

The public key is the 2nd word in the Script Sig but you're looking at the 1st word. That's the signature. Signatures are 71 to 73 bytes (142 to 146 characters) long.
Thank you very much.Can you give example about Script Sig. Before It took a long time for me to read about publick key, private key. And now I will must read about new information of Script Sig. Please help me to understand Script Sig with some example. Thanks
