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
cold wallet refers to the wallet where the network can't access your private key. Generally, it will take a notebook to record it. Although it avoids the risk of being stolen by hackers, it may also be lost
a hot wallet is a wallet that can access your private key on the Internet. Hot wallets are often in the form of online wallets, which are not easy to lose, but also have risks.

I hope my answer can help you. It is recommended that you fully study before you operate< br />
for consumers, digital wallets are free and easy to get. For example, when a consumer makes a purchase on a merchant's website that has set up a server-side digital wallet, he enters his name, payment amount and delivery information into the merchant's own form. At the end of the purchase, he was asked to sign the user name and password for the wallet of his choice. Users can also get wallets from the wallet provider's site
although wallets are free for consumers, the suppliers charge the merchants for using wallets.
bitcoin address generation process
(Note: some numbers are marked with & quot; 0x" Begin with, meaning that the number is in hexadecimal notation& quot; 0x" It doesn't have any meaning in itself. It's a conventional writing method handed down from C language. For example, 0xa is 10 in decimal system. In addition, 1 byte = 8-bit binary = 2-bit hexadecimal)
in the first step, randomly select a 32 byte number and size from 1 to 0xFFFF ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff fffe baae dce6 af48 a03b BFD2 5e8c d036 4141 as the private key
in the second step, the elliptic curve encryption algorithm (ecdsa-secp256k1) is used to calculate the uncompressed public key corresponding to the private key A total of 65 bytes, 1 byte is 0x04, 32 bytes are x coordinates, and 32 bytes are y coordinates
the third step is to calculate the SHA-256 hash value of the public key
the fourth step is to take the previous step result and calculate the ripemd-160 hash value
the fifth step is to take the previous step result and add the address version number (bitcoin main network version number "0x00")
00
the sixth step is to take the previous step result, Calculate the SHA-256 hash value
Step 7, take the result of the previous step, and then calculate the SHA-256 hash value (HA HA)
Step 8, take the first four bytes (8-bit hexadecimal)
d61967f6
Step 9 of the result of the previous step, and add these four bytes after the result of step 5, As a check (this is the hexadecimal form of the bitcoin address)
00d61967f6
Step 10: change the address with base58 notation (this is the most common form of bitcoin address)< br />
private key
is a 256 bit
random number
, which is generated by SHA-256 algorithm
