Question

Having a private ECDSA key 18E14A7B6A307F426A94F8114701E7C8E774E7F9A47E2C2035DB29A206321725

1 - Take the corresponding public key generated with it 0450863AD64A87AE8A2FE83C1AF1A8403CB53F53E486D8511DAD8A04887E5B23522CD470243453A299FA9E77237716103ABC11A1DF38855ED6F2EE187E9C582BA6

2 - Perform SHA-256 hashing on the public key 600FFE422B4E00731A59557A5CCA46CC183944191006324A447BDB2D98D4B408

but when I run a sha256 on 0450863AD64A87AE8A2FE83C1AF1A8403CB53F53E486D8511DAD8A04887E5B23522CD470243453A299FA9E77237716103ABC11A1DF38855ED6F2EE187E9C582BA6

I don't get

600FFE422B4E00731A59557A5CCA46CC183944191006324A447BDB2D98D4B408

What I get is

32511e82d56dcea68eb774094e25bab0f8bdd9bc1eca1ceeda38c7a43aceddce

what am I doing wrong?

Solution

You have to:

  • Hash with SHA-256 the public key: 0450863AD64A87AE8A2FE83C1AF1A8403CB53F53E486D8511DAD8A04887E5B23522CD470243453A299FA9E77237716103ABC11A1DF38855ED6F2EE187E9C582BA6

  • Hash with RIPEMD-160 the key: 600FFE422B4E00731A59557A5CCA46CC183944191006324A447BDB2D98D4B408

Which should result in 010966776006953D5567439E5E39F86A0D273BEE.
