When i run old keyhunt BSGS with 100 pub. keys works OK no pub. key error, on a new version i get only: [+] Added 12 points from file; out of 100. I check pub. keys again and all correspond to the addresses and i m using same file for both versions. Is there any fix for this? Also now i dont know which one is not working properly? Thanks in advance!

Are you using the legacy version right?

Yes I compiled it with legacy, using macOS

I checked this 12 pints of pub. keys and they were all compressed, so then the rest of all uncompressed i change to compressed and after that its working with no error. I guess there is an issue with uncompressed pub. key,...?
