hello,
I'm an IT guy at my basis but with limited time nowadays.
I see a Javascript implementation on bitaddress.org that is great solution for portability.
Even if I'm "pathological" a curious person, I'm a bit overwhelmed about this crypto world due to its complexity and my limited time to study.
Do you know the algorithm applied to generate an address and a private key out of a string (any sequence of letters/numbers or special characters) ?
I see the dedicated thread herehttps://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=43496.840, the tool owner not being active since two years so maybe some of you can give me an answer and save my time from reviewing the js code
As these addresses / private keys are generated there is always a probability that another address was already generated at a certain time in the past, as a matter a fact, I searched for one address I generated via bitaddress.org and I could find 2 of them on blockchain.com transactions explorer => how this system can work if uniqueness is not ensured?
