Ethereum Classic Address Generator 🔐

What is Ethereum Classic?

Ethereum Classic is a decentralized computing platform that executes smart contracts. Applications are ran exactly as programmed without the possibility of censorship, downtime, or third-party interference.

Ethereum Classic is a distributed network consisting of a blockchain ledger, native cryptocurrency (ETC) and robust ecosystem of on-chain applications and services.

What this API can do?

This API on request generates JSON object with:

• ETC (Ethereum Classic) Address
• Key Pair (Public And Private Key) of this Address
  
  

Usage

Request URL https://etc-api.glitch.me.
On response you will get a JSON object containing 3 keys (address, publickey, privatekey), as well as their values.
Then you can fetch this data on your own and use it in your project.

Example Code

main.js

var express = require('express'); 
var request = require('request');
var app = express();

let url = "https://etc-api.glitch.me"; // Requested URL

app.get('/', function(req, res){

    request({
        url: url,
        json: true
    }, 

    function (error, response, body) {
    
        if (!error && response.statusCode === 200) {
            res.send(body); // Print whole JSON response

            // To get specific data use:
            //     res.send(body[key]);
            // where key is 'address', 'publickey' or 'privatekey'
        }
    })
});

app.listen(process.env.PORT || 3000); // App listening on port 3000

• request

Example Response

{ 
"address":"0x1c8339d840a14a01f78b256bf50ff35765153f36",
"publickey":"0xb79c1886c075ed84a1051fc32c74c290a0cea2cace90a658429534a7b25963adf08c2ff14e254247719b9013271ebf1a616e0afe3a8e9dcba1aee9c050fc5a07",
"privatekey":"a590906f38d320da1365655590f74727aa6d02a931dc4c20c65593ac42ec63fb"
}

As we can see, generated address is a valid Ethereum Network address

Keep in mind that when an app isn't used by anyone for a longer period of time, it takes longer to get first response. After that, app should send response faster.
