Generate a keystore without password protection (⚠️ use only for testing):

./evm-wallet --keystore --insecure

Flag	Description
--keystore	Generate wallet as keystore format only (hides sensitive info)

• Public key in hexadecimal format
• Ethereum address (checksummed)
• BIP39 mnemonic phrase

Keystore Mode

When using --keystore, the tool:

• Creates a keystore/ directory in the current folder

⚠️ Security Warnings

1. Never share your private key or mnemonic phrase with anyone
2. Store your keystore password securely - if you lose it, you cannot recover your wallet
3. Backup your mnemonic phrase in a secure location
4. Never use --insecure mode for production wallets
5. Keep your keystore files secure - they contain encrypted private keys
