## Dissecting the Geth (Go-Ethereum) keystore files using Raku tools Article: https://gitlab.com/pheix-research/talks/-/blob/main/advent/2023.md ### TOC 1. Intro: The idea behind this research - signing transactions locally; - integration with telegram bot — add new accounts to Ethelia public node. 2. What is the Ethereum (Web3) keystore file; - overview; - actual scope (real world tasks): * Tools (aka hacks) to get private key from keystore file; * Importing new accounts (private keys) into Geth client. 3. Implementation in Raku - Initial state (it looks promising): * libscrypt via `Crypt::LibScrypt`; * AES128-CTR algo via `Gcrypt` and `OpenSSL`; * UUID; - Problems (are on the most important steps); - Let's raise a few Pull Requests * `Crypt::LibScrypt`; * my new modules as intermediate step. - Yet another binding for GNU Libgcrypt; - Upgrade `Bitcoin::Core::Secp256k1`. 5. `Node::Ethereum::KeyStore::V3` - Quick start; - `ethkeystorev3-cli` utility; - Dependencies. 6. Afterword - Ethelia service; - Registering via Telegram Bot; - Demo pitch
