PHP - Validate Multisig Bitcoin Wallet Address (with Leading 2 or 3)

Question

I have used this function for validating the bitcoin wallet address to see if it's a bitcoin address. However, it's not working with address that starts with "3" (multi-sig). For example, 3EktnHQD7RiAE6uzMj2ZifT9YgRrkSgzQX .

Can anyone help me with that function to make it work that it can validate all major forms of bitcoin wallet addresses?

Answer 1

I just found this here : p

function validate($address){
        $decoded = decodeBase58($address);

        $d1 = hash("sha256", substr($decoded,0,21), true);
        $d2 = hash("sha256", $d1, true);

        if(substr_compare($decoded, $d2, 21, 4)){
                throw new \Exception("bad digest");
        }
        return true;
}
function decodeBase58($input) {
        $alphabet = "123456789ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz";

        $out = array_fill(0, 25, 0);
        for($i=0;$i<strlen($input);$i++){
                if(($p=strpos($alphabet, $input[$i]))===false){
                        throw new \Exception("invalid character found");
                }
                $c = $p;
                for ($j = 25; $j--; ) {
                        $c += (int)(58 * $out[$j]);
                        $out[$j] = (int)($c % 256);
                        $c /= 256;
                        $c = (int)$c;
                }
                if($c != 0){
                    throw new \Exception("address too long");
                }
        }

        $result = "";
        foreach($out as $val){
                $result .= chr($val);
        }

        return $result;
}

function main () {
  $s = array(
                "1Q1pE5vPGEEMqRcVRMbtBK842Y6Pzo6nK9",
                "1AGNa15ZQXAZUgFiqJ2i7Z2DPU2J6hW62i",
                "1Q1pE5vPGEEMqRcVRMbtBK842Y6Pzo6nJ9",
                "1AGNa15ZQXAZUgFiqJ2i7Z2DPU2J6hW62I",
        );
  foreach($s as $btc){
    $message = "OK";
    try{
        validate($btc);
    }catch(\Exception $e){ $message = $e->getMessage(); }
    echo "$btc: $message\n";
  }
}

main();

It does do multisig:
