Public Key Bit Sorter

This tool sorts ECDSA uncompressed public keys (format 04..., 130 characters) into separate files based on their effective bit lengths.
Four different bit-counting strategies are supported to analyze the entropy or structure of public keys.

📊 Bit-Counting Methods Comparison

Method	Description	Usefulness
1. Classic	Total bits = HEX length × 4	Basic grouping, includes all leading zeros
2. Dynamic	Sum of X and Y binary lengths, excluding leading zeros	Measures real entropy, great for weak key detection
3. Legacy	MAX HEX length of X or Y (no leading zeros), × 4	Fast approximation, good for dominant coordinate detection
4. Binary-Max	MAX binary bit length of X or Y, no leading zeros	Most accurate entropy estimate

⚙️ Features

• 4 bit-counting strategies
• Multiprocessing (parallel key sorting)
• tqdm live progress bar
• Grouped outputs saved in output/
• Works on Linux, macOS, Windows

---

🧪 Requirements

pip install tqdm

Python 3.8 or newer is recommended.

---

📂 Usage

python public_key_bit_sorter.py

Follow interactive prompts:

1. Input file name (default: publickeys.txt)
2. Choose bit-counting method (1–4)
3. Set number of CPU threads

Output files will be saved like:

output/publickeys_256bit.txt  
output/publickeys_253bit.txt  
...
