Concept NACK
Sorry, no. P2PK outputs do not have an address. It's an outdated and confusing practice to refer to them as their corresponding P2PKH address.

Closing for now, because this seems to be controversial and all tests fail, so this can't be merged in any case. Let us know if you have any questions, or you can refer to stack exchange:
General bitcoin questions and/or support requests are best directed to the Bitcoin StackExchange or the
#bitcoinIRC channel on Libera Chat. - maflcko closed this on Apr 30, 2023

as far as my understanding
see we have private key --> secp256k1 -- > public key --> sha256 --> RIPEMD160 --> Hashed Publickey --> hashed Publickey + checksum = wallet address
and we have the flow of ExtractDestination
PUBKEY -->passed to --> EXTRACT DESTINATION -->PKHash returned
PUBKEYHASH -->passed to --> EXTRACT DESTINATION --> PKHash returned
we pass this PKHash to EncodeDestination which passes it to DestinationEncoder which returns us the wallet address can you please guide me where I am getting it wrong ? that would really nice of you.
