Qtum

Qtum is a cryptocurrency that combines properties of bitcoin and ethereum. It uses a UTXO-based smart contract system with a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus model. Qtum is designed to be suitable for use by large organizations.
Tatum supports 2 chains:

  • Mainnet - a regular live chain
  • Testnet - a chain used for testing purposes. Coins on the test chain have no value and can be obtained from a faucet, e.g. http://testnet-faucet.qtum.info/

Generate QTUM account address from Extended public key

Generate QTUM wallet

1 credit per API call.


Tatum supports BIP44 HD wallets. Because they can generate 2^31 addresses from 1 mnemonic phrase, they are very convenient and secure. A mnemonic phrase consists of 24 special words in a defined order and can restore access to all generated addresses and private keys.
Each address is identified by 3 main values:

  • Private Key - your secret value, which should never be revealed
  • Public Key - public address to be published
  • Derivation index - index of generated address

Tatum follows BIP44 specification and generates for QTUM wallet with derivation path m/44'/2301'/0'/0. More about BIP44 HD wallets can be found here - https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0044.mediawiki.
