Base58 (similar to Base64) is a notation for encoding arbitrary byte data. It differs from Base64 by removing easily misread characters (i.e. l, I, 0 and O) to improve human readability. For example, StV1DL6CwTryKyV becomes hello world. From Base58 lives in the Data format category of the fx menu.

Base58 (similar to Base64) is a notation for encoding arbitrary byte data. Adjust optional parameters when the defaults do not match your payload.

  1. Set Input to the value to transform. Paste:

    Input
    StV1DL6CwTryKyV
  2. Review Alphabet, Remove non-alphabet chars and keep defaults unless your format requires otherwise.

  3. Confirm Output value matches the expected result (for example hello world).
