Rationale
VechainThor uses Secp256k1 for transaction signing. The account addresses are derived by taking the Keccak-256 hash of the public key and representing it as a hexadecimal number. The last 20 bytes of the Keccak-256 hash are used to generate the address.
VechainThor addresses are hex-encoded strings with a length of 42 characters, prefixed with 0x.
Private keys used for other EVM compatible chains will produce the same account address.
Syntax
Vechain addresses match the following regular expression:
0x[a-fA-F0-9]{40}
