Validate tools

Client

Index of format validators—use a card for the dedicated route. Web3 checks cover Ethereum addresses (EIP-55) and 32-byte hex private key shape (range vs curve order).

Validators

Encoding, certificates, and tokens often sit next to address and key workflows.

Common use cases

  • Confirm an Ethereum address string is 20 bytes of hex and copy the correct EIP-55 checksum.
  • Check that a 64-digit hex value is in range for a secp256k1 private key before wiring wallet code.
  • Prefer redacted or throwaway samples when debugging—treat pasted keys as sensitive even locally.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Assuming checksum = cryptographic proof

    EIP-55 only catches typos in the address string. It does not prove ownership or contract safety.

  • Pasting mainnet private keys into any website

    This tool never uploads input, but the safest workflow is offline tools or hardware for real secrets.

FAQ

Do you verify signatures or connect to a chain?

No. This hub only checks string format and, for addresses, EIP-55 casing. There is no RPC, signing, or balance lookup.

Does a “valid” private key mean a funded wallet?

No. Range checks only mean the scalar fits secp256k1; they do not imply the key is known, safe, or in use.

Is input sent to Toolcore servers?

No. Validators run in your browser tab like other client-side tools on the site.
