How does one import a private key anyway? Do I need a new version of the client? I have an old one, I believe.

It's as easy as...

Code:

#!/bin/bash

base58=({1..9} {A..H} {J..N} {P..Z} {a..k} {m..z})
bitcoinregex="^[$(printf "%s" "${base58}")]{34}$"

decodeBase58() {
local s=$1
for i in {0..57}
do s="${s//${base58}/ $i}"
done
dc <<< "16o0d${s// /+58*}+f"
}

encodeBase58() {
# 58 = 0x3A
bc <<<"ibase=16; n=${1^^}; while(n>0) { n%3A ; n/=3A }" |
tac |
while read n
do echo -n ${base58[n]}
done
}

checksum() {
xxd -p -r <<<"$1" |
openssl dgst -sha256 -binary |
openssl dgst -sha256 -binary |
xxd -p -c 80 |
head -c 8
}

checkBitcoinAddress() {
if [[ "$1" =~ $bitcoinregex ]]
then
h=$(decodeBase58 "$1")
checksum "00${h::${#h}-8}" |
grep -qi "^${h: -8}$"
else return 2
fi
}

hash160() {
openssl dgst -sha256 -binary |
openssl dgst -rmd160 -binary |
xxd -p -c 80
}

hash160ToAddress() {
printf "%34s\n" "$(encodeBase58 "00$1$(checksum "00$1")")" |
sed "y/ /1/"
}

hash256ToAddress() {
#printf "80$1$(checksum "80$1")"
printf "%34s\n" "$(encodeBase58 "80$1$(checksum "80$1")")" |
sed "y/ /1/"
}

publicKeyToAddress() {
hash160ToAddress $(
openssl ec -pubin -pubout -outform DER |
tail -c 65 |
hash160
)
}

privateKeyToWIF() {
hash256ToAddress $(openssl ec -text -noout -in data.pem | head -5 | tail -3 | fmt -120 | sed 's/[: ]//g')

}

openssl ecparam -genkey -name secp256k1 | tee data.pem &>/dev/null
