Bitcoin Asked by Avi El on October 24, 2021
I need to know how to get the corresponding public key of a private key in hd-wallets, I don’t need the derived ones but the public key who is related to the private I got. If there is an algorithm using python it will be very helpful but also the formula will be good as well.
thank you.

A private key derived using the BIP32 hierarchical derivation is similar to any other one and the corresponding public key is obtained by "multiplying" your private by G
, as for any other private key.
You want to use a specific crypto library for this operation, and I believe coincurve
to be a good maintained Python binding to libsecp
.
You can also use python-bip32
to simplify your use of BIP32 derived keys (relies on coincurve under the hood).
