Usage

To use bech32-utils, you need to provide the original Bech32 address and the prefix you want to convert it to. The tool also accepts an optional derivation path.

./bech32-utils single <address> <new_prefix> [derivation_path]

Or what you can do is use a csv file with records like the following <ADDRESS>,[..<EXTRA_INFO>] (e.g. pasg000000000000000000000000000000000000000,1231241,staker,69,420)

./bech32-utils convert-csv <INPUT_DIR> <OUTPUT_DIR> <PREFIX>

Parameters:

• <address>: The original Bech32 address you want to convert.
• <new_prefix>: The new prefix for the address.
• [derivation_path]: Optional. The derivation path if applicable.

Examples:

Convert an address to a new prefix:

./bech32-utils bc1qp... zil1

Convert an address to a new prefix with a derivation path:

./bech32-utils bc1qp... zil1 m/44'/0'/0'/0/0
