Usage

# generate random ERC-like wallet (ETH, BNB, POLYGON, ...)
$ cw

# generate random ERC-like wallet with desired prefix
$ cw -p aaa

# generate random BTC wallet (default format: bech32 - "bc1q...")
$ cw -c BTC

# generate random BTC wallet with desired prefix (case-insensitive)
$ cw -c BTC -p ABC

# generate random BTC wallet with desired prefix (case-sensitive)
$ cw -c BTC -P abc

# generate BTC legacy wallet ("1...")
$ cw -c BTC -f legacy

# generate BTC segwit wallet ("3...")
$ cw -c BTC -f segwit

# generate BTC bech32 wallet from mnemonic string
$ cw -c BTC -f bech32 -m "radio bright pizza pluck family crawl palm flame forget focus stock stadium"

# generate N of BTC bech32 wallets from mnemonic string
$ cw -c BTC -f bech32 -n 10 -m "radio bright pizza pluck family crawl palm flame forget focus stock stadium"

# generate ERC-like wallet from mnemonic string
$ cw -m "radio bright pizza pluck family crawl palm flame forget focus stock stadium"

# generate BNB (BEP2) wallet from mnemonic string
$ cw -c BNB -f BEP2 -m "radio bright pizza pluck family crawl palm flame forget focus stock stadium"

# generate BNB (BEP20) wallet from mnemonic string
$ cw -c BNB -f BEP20 -m "radio bright pizza pluck family crawl palm flame forget focus stock stadium"

# generate few wallets and save the output into a file
$ cw -c btc -n 10 -o csv -F out.csv

# generate just a mnemonic string (12 words) to import in any wallet app
$ cw -m

# list all supported blockchains
$ cw -l
