Ethereum: Bitcoin-CLI and Extracting Transaction Hash

In this article, we will explore the capabilities of the Bitcoin-CLI command-line interface (CLI) in extracting transaction hashes for a specific Ethereum wallet address.

Bitcoin-cli Basics

Bitcoin-CLI is a simple, lightweight command-line tool that allows users to interact with the Bitcoin network. It provides several transaction and wallet management features.

Getting Started with Bitcoin-cli

To use bitcoin-cli, you can install it on your system using your package manager or by downloading the binary from the official website.

Once installed, you can run the following commands to list all transactions for a specific wallet address:

bitcoin --help

This will display the available options and flags. We will use the–listtransactionsflag to get the transaction hash values.

Get all Tx hashes for a watch-only address

To get all transaction hashes for a watch-only Ethereum wallet address, we need to pass the address as the "-addr" option:

bitcoind --listtransactions --addr

Replace "" with the actual wallet address.

Sample Result

If you have a private key for the watch-only Ethereum wallet address 0x1234567890abcdefand want to extract all transaction hashes, you can run:

bitcoind --listtransactions --addr 0x1234567890abcdef

The result will be in the following format:

6 1 3 2 11 19 7

TX Block Hash Block Hash 10

Signature (hex) Block Height TX Hash Block Hash 14

Block Size Signature (hex) Block Height TX Hash Block Hash 18

More Options

In addition to the –listtransactionsflag, you can use other options to get specific information.

For example, to get all transaction hashes for a specific block:

bitcoind --listtransactions --addr --block

Replace “” with the actual wallet address and “” with the desired block number.

To get a list of transactions within a specific range, you can use the “--sine” and “--until” flags:

bitcoind --listtransactions --addr --from --until

Replace “” with the previous hash of the desired transaction.

Conclusion

Bitcoin-CLI provides a powerful way to manage and analyze Bitcoin transactions. With this article, you now know how to use bitcoin-cli` to extract all transaction hashes for a view-only Ethereum wallet address. You can also use other options to extract specific information or a group of transactions. Remember to always keep your private keys safe and use a secure method to store them.
