Bitcoin Address Generator in Obfuscated Python¶

Never underestimate what programmers can do.

The code below shows a fully-functioning Bitcoin address generator in obfuscated Python (2.5-2.7), which I saw in an interesting article posted in 2013.

               *G*V(2*J%P),G,J,G)+((M((J-T
            )*V((G-S)%P),S,T,G)if(S@(G,J))if(
         W%2@(S,T)))if(W@(S,T);H=2**256;import&h

     k.b2a_hex(W),16);C$:C    (W/    58)+[W%58]if(W@

   6(W).digest();I$                 d=32:I(W/256,d-1)+

  J(W))));K$:               F(W          +Y(Y(W))[:4]);
   X.update(Y("\4"+                     I(S)+I(T)));B$
    :re.sub("[0OIl    _]|            [^\\w]","","".jo
     in(map(chr,ra    nge    (123))))[W];print"Addre
       ss:",K("\0"+X.dig    est())+"\nPrivkey:",K(
         "\x80"+I(f))""";exec(reduce(lambda W,X:
            W.replace(*X),zip(" \n&$@",["","",
               " ","=lambda W,",")else "])
                    ,"A$G,J,S,T:"+_))

I’ve tested it on Python 2.7 on Ubuntu. Working like a charm.
