uncompressed doesn't work as intended

kelalaka153 opened this issue · comments

I've entered a string for "brain wallet" and checked the compressed and uncompressed versions.

I've seen that uncompressed doesn't start with 0x04 and doesn't have the same values with the compression and the sizes are almost the same.

uncompressed base58 values

This should be the point compression
