Bad Bitcoin Addr

Simple web extension to detect when you've copied a bitcoin address (or something like looks like one) from a HTTP page.

How it Works?

  • For Bech32, it uses the reference implementation to check if the copied text can be decoded. This is not perfect, for instance, bc1rw5uspcuh (from the test vectors) has an invalid program length but is still decodable and is detected by the extension.
  • For P2PKH and P2SH it is even cruder, it checks if the copied text is the right version (first byte is 1 for P2PKH and 3 for P2SH), can be base58 decoded (using paulmillr/micro-base58), and has the right length (25 bytes).

Building the extension

Firefox

Use web-ext to build the sources as follows

cd src-ff
web-ext build

and load the extension into Firefox.

Chrome

Load the src-chrome directory into chrome.
