I might advice to download the version of the course, im sure the syntax from newest versions have change a little bit, inside the folders of the installation, there is one with the daemon.

For those of you that are like me who canât get the regtest address, as of the current version of bitcoin core that Iâm using (latest version in13/08/2022), you need to do the following.
- start the bitcoind using: ./bitcoind -regtest
- create a new wallet using: ./bitcoin-cli -regtest createwallet âchoose a name for the walletâ
- call the get new address command: ./bitcoin-cli -regtest getnewaddress

cd /Applications/Bitcoin-Qt.app/Contents/MacOS/
./Bitcoin-Qt -regtest
is the commands in the Mac terminal that i use to start btc core in regtest. but after the Mac terminal doesnât let me add any more commands. but when i use the btcCore terminal it wont recognize commands like getnewaddress or generate. i feel like it is something simple Iâm missing.
You might need to create a wallet first
bitcoin-cli --regtest createwallet "wallet_name"
