The fmt trait is not implemented for crypto::secp256k1::SigningKey , So how to output the private key and print it to the terminal？

Hi @RustMan88, did you manage to find a way to output private keys in the terminal using this?

crypto::secp256k1::SigningKey can't be output to the terminal.

It's a wrapper type for a trait object, and designed to support hardware key storage as well including e.g. hardware wallets / HSMs, in addition to software-backed keys.

If you want the original key, you need to use your original input you instantiated it with.
