Wallet

[ImSan286]

Where to add or enter or provide our wallet address?It only asks for private keys.Help me out

The private key is unique to your wallet address. So once you provide it, it will be able to read your wallet. No need so seperatly mention your public wallet address.

Disclaimer: I would recommend to always be cautious and don't use your main wallet. Just create a new wallet and supply it with a mimimum amount of funds to test with.

Never use your main wallet for bot!!!!

@ImSan286 you can create a new wallet with solana-keygen new --outfile bot-keypair.json
In json file bot-keypair.json, the private key is in array format like [1, 2, 3, ....]

you can use following nodejs script to convert the private key in bot-keypair.json

const fs = require('fs');
const {Keypair} = require('@solana/web3.js');
const bs58 = require('bs58');

// Replace with the path to your keypair.json file
const keypairPath = './bot-keypair.json';

const keypair = Keypair.fromSecretKey(new Uint8Array(JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync(keypairPath, 'utf-8'))));
console.log(bs58.encode(keypair.secretKey));

➜  solana-trading-bot git:(master) ✗ node keyToBase58.js 
<private key in base 58 encoding>
