I have an old Electrum wallet of the HD Legacy type, and inside it, I found the xpub (extended public key).
I heard that it’s possible to generate an unlimited number of addresses from this xpub linked to the wallet.
I would like to know:
Is this true?
How can I use the xpub to generate these addresses?
What are the best tools or methods to quickly check the balances on these addresses?
If I have the private key, how can I link it to these addresses for full control?
I can provide the generated addresses if that helps with balance checking, and of course, I won’t share any private keys to keep everything secure.
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance!
If you want a more technical or casual version, just let me know.
