Coinage

Coinage is a python module for validating cryptocurrency addresses with different formats among different blockchain networks.

Examples

from coinage import BitcoinBlockchain, FailedValidation, FailedChecksumValidation

btc = BitcoinBlockchain()

try:
	valid = btc.validate('abcdef1qpzry9x8gf2tvdw0s3jn54khce6mua7lmqqqxw')
	if valid.is_from_main_net():
		print('this address looks good')
	else:
		print('this isn\'t a mainnet address')
except FailedChecksumValidation:
	print('you probably made a mistake when copying this address')
except FailedValidation:
	print('this isnt a bitcoin address')

Or:

from coinage import BitcoinBlockchain, FailedValidation, FailedChecksumValidation

btc = BitcoinBlockchain()

result, details = btc.is_valid('abcdef1qpzry9x8gf2tvdw0s3jn54khce6mua7lmqqqxw')
if result:
	if details.is_from_main_net():
		print('this address looks good')
	else:
		print('this isn\'t a mainnet address')
else:
	print('this isnt a valid bitcoin address')
