FAQ

How can I get my BITCOIN_HD_PRIVATE_KEY and BITCOIN_HD_PUBLIC_KEY?

For now, the bcwallet is the best choice.

When you start the wallet, choose the type of network, then you should get all of these.

It always show 'Waiting for payment' even I send the payment in my local node

Because the core code use webhooks from BlockCypher, please check the status of webhooks

See List WebHooks Endpoint. It usually happens with incorrect host or port setting in the config file.

How do I extract funds from the app?

To extract the funds from the app you should:

  1. From the project's root directory, run:
curl -X POST https://proofofexistence/sweep/$MAGIC_NUMBER > /tmp/proofofexistence-paths.txt
  1. Run
npm run sweep

When prompted, enter these:

  • hdPrivateKey - the master extended private key that is paired with the outgoingPublicKey from the config file
  • file - the /tmp/proofofexistence-paths.txt file generated in step 1
  • address - bitcoin address where you want to send funds to

NOTE: If you want to extract the funds through the cli without any prompt,

please put the hdPrivateKey, file, address in a config file, then issue the command:

npm run sweep < config_file
  • Example of config_file
