Factors are decompressed by fixing for y
within the equation used for secp256k1’s elliptic curve the place x
is the final 32 bytes of your public key. The equation is y^2 = x^3 + 7
. You’re going to get 2 potential y
values, one even and one odd. The proper one is indicated by the prefix byte of your public key which signifies whether or not y
is even or odd.
Be aware that every one operations have to be modulo p
which is outlined by secp256k1’s spec as being 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFEFFFFFC2F
.
This python script will decompress the 2 public keys that you’ve posted:
#! /usr/bin/env python3
import binascii
p = 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFEFFFFFC2F
def decompress_pubkey(pk):
x = int.from_bytes(pk[1:33], byteorder="large")
y_sq = (pow(x, 3, p) + 7) % p
y = pow(y_sq, (p + 1) // 4, p)
if y % 2 != pk[0] % 2:
y = p - y
y = y.to_bytes(32, byteorder="large")
return b'x04' + pk[1:33] + y
print(binascii.hexlify(decompress_pubkey(binascii.unhexlify('0229b3e0919adc41a316aad4f41444d9bf3a9b639550f2aa735676ffff25ba3898'))).decode())
print(binascii.hexlify(decompress_pubkey(binascii.unhexlify('02f15446771c5c585dd25d8d62df5195b77799aa8eac2f2196c54b73ca05f72f27'))).decode())
The uncompressed public keys are:
0429b3e0919adc41a316aad4f41444d9bf3a9b639550f2aa735676ffff25ba3898d6881e81d2e0163348ff07b3a9a3968401572aa79c79e7edb522f41addc8e6ce

Pubkey decompression is totally totally different and unrelated to deal with era. Addresses are generated by taking a public key as is (both compressed or uncompressed) hashing it, after which encoding it. The compression issues as a result of the ensuing serialized public will produce one hash (and thus one deal with) when it’s compressed, and a unique hash (and thus totally different deal with) when uncompressed.
Addresses are encoded by hashing the serialized public key with SHA256 after which with RIPEMD160. The ensuing hash is encoded utilizing Base58 Examine encoding.
Within the transaction you supplied, the three public keys:
04ad90e5b6bc86b3ec7fac2c5fbda7423fc8ef0d58df594c773fa05e2c281b2bfe877677c668bd13603944e34f4818ee03cadd81a88542b8b4d5431264180e2c28

02f15446771c5c585dd25d8d62df5195b77799aa8eac2f2196c54b73ca05f72f27
have the next hashes respectively:

8b38a8d40e08362046dee55c1c94e7991d7dec75
Encoding these as model 0 addresses with Base 58 Examine encoding leads to the addresses you expect:

As you may see, this doesn’t do any level compression or decompression. Relatively it takes the general public key as it’s and encodes it.
