bx token new

Create an intermediate passphrase token for deferred encrypted key generation (BIP38).

$ bx token-new --help

Usage: bx token-new [-h] [--config VALUE] [--lot VALUE] [--sequence      
VALUE] [PASSPHRASE] [SALT]                                               

Info: Create an intermediate passphrase token for deferred encrypted key 
generation (BIP38).                                                      

Options (named):

-c [--config]        The path to the configuration settings file.        
-h [--help]          Get a description and instructions for this command.
-l [--lot]           An arbitrary lot number, limited to 1048575.        
-s [--sequence]      An arbitrary sequence number, limited to 4095.      

Arguments (positional):

PASSPHRASE           The passphrase for encrypting the token.            
SALT                 The Base16 entropy for the new token. Must be at    
                     least 32 bits in length. Only the first 32 bits are 
                     used unless lot and sequence are zero or unspecified
                     and the salt is at least 64 bits, in which case 64  
                     bits are used and lot and sequence are not used.    

Example 1

$ bx token-new "my passphrase" baadf00d

passphrasecpXbDpHuo8FGWjkFCxTEYSaekfi45D88ad5DVReNLhCTbnETGLfYfcrV4vwx3Q

Example 2

invalid salt

$ bx token-new "my passphrase" baadf0

The salt is less than 32 bits long.

Example 3

--lot 7 --sequence 42

$ bx token-new -l 7 -s 42 "my passphrase" baadf00d

passphrasecpXbDpHuo8FGWy2zdpFXvmsu31YuLU5peBAqzJifHjeaHfePVW45ptrh3NqD3Z

Example 2

--lot 1048576 (invalid)

$ bx token-new -l 1048575 "my passphrase" baadf00d

The lot exceeds the maximum value of 1048575.

Example 3

--sequence 4096 (invalid)

$ bx token-new -s 4096 "my passphrase" baadf00d

The sequence exceeds the maximum value of 4095.

Example 5

piped commands

$ bx seed | bx token-new "my passphrase"
