◆ EncodeBase58()

std::string EncodeBase58 ( Span< const unsigned char >  input)

Why base-58 instead of standard base-64 encoding?

  • Don't want 0OIl characters that look the same in some fonts and could be used to create visually identical looking data.
  • A string with non-alphanumeric characters is not as easily accepted as input.
  • E-mail usually won't line-break if there's no punctuation to break at.
  • Double-clicking selects the whole string as one word if it's all alphanumeric. Encode a byte span as a base58-encoded string
