## Introduction
A wallet is a pair of asymmetric keys (a public key + a private key).
The purpose of this RFC is to define a standard, inter-operable and secure file format for any DUBP wallet.
[DUBP](https://git.duniter.org/nodes/common/doc/blob/master/rfc/0010_Duniter_Blockchain_Protocol_V12.md) only deals with public keys and signatures.
A public key is always paired with a private key, which DUBP will never deal with.
Today DUBP manage only the algorithm ED25519, but in the future DUBP can evolve to manage multiples digital signature algorithms.
So currently a public key for DUBP is to be understood as an Ed25519 public key.
## DEWIF format
DEWIF is an inter-operable and secure file format for any DUBP wallet.
The official extension is `.dewif`.
DEWIF format is a text file containing a single base64 string.
This base64 string encodes a sequence of bytes whose structure is defined below.
## dewif bytes structure
| version (4 bytes) | encrypted datas (any bytes) |
|:-----------------:|:---------------------------:|
## encrypted datas
### v1
Symmetric encryption algorithm : aes256
Encrypted datas :
| seed(32 bytes) | public key(32bytes) |
|:--------------:|:-------------------:|
| seed bytes | public key bytes |
The public key serves as a checksum. To check that the `.duwif` file is not corrupted, simply generate an ed25519 keypair with the seed and check that the obtained public key matches.
Example 1:
Seed generated from scrypt with the following parameters:
password: "password"
salt: "salt"
N : 4096
r: 16
p: 1
```txt
0x000000001 #v1
0x22a91d9afa1dd13e96cecfa38d3f3655ca2726818ba5aa84e6b7dee1a036fc0f # seed
0xecdaab8f7ea0ea6f4b9f4e930cef2a1bb277736f64c971c43ca5d73cfb4bb80f # public key
```
DUWIF base 64 string (with zeroing aes key):
`AAFTQgEdcnSqvdxZW9Q+37b1RpiC5lsd/kjT01xUq122obU8R2IyyAVqpAsC2s7dwOX9xJ4r9WRnNrcpjLt3Mnq3`
### v2
Symmetric encryption algorithm : aes256
Encrypted datas :
| seed1(32 bytes) | public key1(32bytes) | seed2(32 bytes) | public key2(32bytes) |
|:---------------:|:--------------------:|:---------------:|:--------------------:|
| seed bytes | public key bytes | seed bytes | public key bytes |
The public key serves as a checksum. To check that the `.duwif` file is not corrupted, simply generate an ed25519 keypair with the seed and check that the obtained public key matches.
