Is that regex working? I'd put some parentheses
/^5[1-9A-Za-z][^OIl]{20,50}/
or
/^5([1-9A-Za-z][^OIl]){20,50}/
Try with some private keys from https://www.bitaddress.org/
Topic: Regular expression for private key base 58? (Read 3872 times)
I'm writing a bitcoin app and would like to validate addresses somehow. I found this regex for public addresses:
/^[13n][1-9A-Za-z][^OIl]{20,40}/
But I'm looking for one for base 58 private keys as well. (Base 58 is the import format right?)
I don't know a lot about the rules for these keys/addresses. If I did I'd just write the regexes myself. Any help is much appreciated.
