[ ] question about how to use this project
Summary
I was using this code for sending btc transactions and it was working really good. I like the simplicity. However, when I imported my private key (mainnet BTC) and tried to see the wallet address, it was showing a legacy address. While, the wallet that I created was segwit. So, I am a bit confused here. Can some help me get the segwit address?
Other information (e.g. detailed explanation, stacktraces, related issues, suggestions how to fix, links for us to have context, eg. StackOverflow, personal fork, etc.)
Steps to reproduce:
First, I imported the private key and converted to buffer using ECPair
const keyPair = ECPair.fromWIF(private_key);
const account = new CryptoAccount(keyPair.privateKey);
Then I checked the account using the folllowing:
var addr = await account.address("BTC");
console.log("Wallet address:", addr);

The address was shown as following
"1QAFzHidiMNVED9AfP*****" Starting with "1"
Whereas, it should output something like this,
"bc1qlc9jt4kx5x***" Starting with bc1
Can somebody please help out here?
