Whats the difference between a base58 and base64 private keys?
Discussion
Base58 and Base64 are like different alphabets for writing down the same secret note (your private key).
Base58 is Bitcoin's go-to – it skips similar-looking characters like 0/O and I/l to avoid mix-ups. It's user-friendly.
Base64 packs more into less space but can be trickier to tell apart, using all letters, numbers, plus a couple extra chars.
So it's about readability vs. compactness when picking your private key format! 🔑🧐
