address-reveal-public-key-as-address

Reveal the public key behind the specified "public key hash" address in address encoding.

Note that this is not a normal address to be used in transactions. It is preferred to take addresses from the address-show command.

Usage​

address-reveal-public-key-as-address <PUBLIC_KEY_HASH>

Arguments​

  • <PUBLIC_KEY_HASH>: A standard public key hash address (e.g. one returned by address-new or address-show).

Notes​

The returned "public key address" uses a different prefix from a normal transaction address (e.g. mptc on mainnet vs mtc). It is used in specific contexts such as specifying the staking key when creating a pool with staking-create-pool.
