Four documents, the same five questions.
No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.
| Question | Passphrase-protected private key |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | BIP 38, Passphrase-protected private key. A method is proposed for encrypting and encoding a passphrase-protected Bitcoin private key record in the form of a 58-character Base58Check-encoded printable string. |
| Who may write | Mike Caldwell |
| What is settled | A method is proposed for encrypting and encoding a passphrase-protected Bitcoin private key record in the form of a 58-character Base58Check-encoded printable string. |
| Load-bearing assumption | A signature scheme is not a privacy system. It hides the signer only if the protocol says so. |
| What this library says afterwards | Status in the source: Deployed. A reading of the public specification, not a copy of it and not a certification. |
| Rights | Official external source only |
