EnterpriseAddress

class cometa.address.enterprise_address.EnterpriseAddress(ptr)[source]

Bases: object

Represents a Cardano enterprise address.

Enterprise addresses contain only a payment credential and no stake credential. Using these addresses means opting out of staking participation.

Note: Using addresses with no stake rights decreases the total stake in the network, which could benefit potential adversaries of the proof-of-stake protocol.

__init__(ptr)[source]

Return type:: None

__enter__()[source]

Return type:: EnterpriseAddress

__exit__(exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb)[source]

Return type:: None

__repr__()[source]

Return repr(self).

Return type:: str

classmethod from_credentials(network_id, payment)[source]

Creates an enterprise address from a payment credential.

Parameters:

Returns:

A new EnterpriseAddress instance.

Raises:

CardanoError – If address creation fails.

Return type:

EnterpriseAddress

Example

>>> payment = Credential.from_key_hash("00" * 28)
>>> addr = EnterpriseAddress.from_credentials(NetworkId.MAINNET, payment)
