Bitcoin brain wallet clues
The private key of bitcoin wallet cannot be viewed online. Bitcoin exists on the platform. To download core or classic is the real wallet, and then you can view it
[description of private key of bitcoin wallet]:
1. Wallet encryption refers to automatically encrypting and storing the wallet with private key. The official bitcoin client supports wallet encryption since version 0.4.0. The encrypted wallet will prompt you to enter your password every time you pay. If the password is wrong, the client will refuse to pay
2. If you replace it with the earliest backup wallet (wallet. DAT), you can still trade normally. Considering the principle of bitcoin, it can be concluded that as long as there is a private key (wallet), you can prove that you are the legitimate owner of the wallet. No matter whether you encrypt or delete the wallet (the core is the private key corresponding to an address), you can't deny it
3. When backing up the bitcoin wallet, you should also pay attention to the existence of bitcoin payment change mechanism (for example, if you send 50 BTC in a complete 100 BTC to an address, the system will send 50 BTC to the other party's address, and return 50 BTC to a new address of your client, which will not be directly displayed in your address list)
4. After sending bitcoin to other addresses 100 times or using 100 different addresses to receive bitcoin, please back up your wallet again, otherwise the returned and received bitcoin will be lost forever. In addition to encrypting wallets, users can also generate offline paper wallets and brain wallets
there are basically two kinds of attacks, one is dictionary attack, the other is brute force attack
dictionary attack is to use common passwords and their simple variants as keys one by one. As long as your pass phrase is not hard enough, the possibility of successful attack is very high. So if you want to use this, you need to popularize the knowledge of cryptography first, and don't think it's very safe to add a long password
if you don't use the wallet generated by pass phrase, you can only crack it violently, which is equivalent to enumerating all the possible keys. At present, this is impossible, even if the electronic computer is becoming more and more powerful. However, quantum computer can do it theoretically, but don't worry too much. If such a powerful quantum computer comes out, it will not only endanger bitcoin
at the same time, bitcoin has a second layer of protection: if an address only accepts bitcoin but does not output it, its public key is confidential, that is to say, no one else can see the box, only the box number. At present, the process of decing the box from the box number can't even be done by quantum computer. In other words, if there is a quantum computer, bitcoin has a last line of Defense: it's temporarily safe to transfer your money to a new address
finally, some time ago, the wallet generated by the Android client was attacked because of a bug in the underlying random number generator. In fact, this function is not random securerandom, which Google quickly admitted and fixed. It's hard to say whether this kind of thing will happen again, but I don't think we need to worry too much.
on August 1, 2018, bitcoin carried out a hard bifurcation to proce BCH. BCH is the result of community division, not a kind of bifurcated coin. BCH has its own strong community support. However, at that time, some wallets did not support BCH to collect.
