I used to be questioning if there are any good X,Y,Zpub converter instruments that any of you might be conscious of. For example, a software that would convert an Xpub into the equal Zpub.

I used to be impressed to ask this query, as I used to be taking part in round with multi-sig capabilities on each Electrum and Caravan. I created a Segwit MultiSig pockets on Caravan by inserting 3 Xpubs into the software (https://unchained-capital.github.io/caravan/#/pockets). I acquired a pockets with bc1 addresses…

I then tried to re-create that pockets with solely the xPubs on Electrum (mimicking a situation the place I did not have all of the signor keys), however Electrum learn the xPubs as legacy and generated commonplace P2SH 3xxx… addresses within the pockets, a very set of addresses. Not what I used to be in search of!

I then recreated the preliminary SegWit MultiSig pockets (from step 1) on Electrum, by really connecting the identical units. I acquired the identical bc1 addresses as Step 1. Good.

I opened the Electrum pockets knowledge for the MS pockets and seen that Zpubs had been famous, fairly then the xPubs I had seen within the pockets knowledge from Caravan. Be aware: each of those wallets generate the identical addresses relying on the software used.

I then put the zPubs into Caravan to try to recreate the identical MS pockets utilizing the Electrum knowledge (which labored), and it robotically transformed the zPubs from the Electrum pockets to xPubs with the observe: https://gyazo.com/b66d8788e62208a2bdd021fb6ce53bd7
Is there a software that performs the alternative capabilities, that converts an xPubs to a zPub?
This is able to give me consolation that I haven’t got to avoid wasting each xPub and zPub pockets recordsdata! I might merely use both the Caravan or Electrum pockets file and be assured I might at all times derive the opposite format if wanted.
