I don't have any android phone so I can't use coinomi wallet.

Is there any BTG wallet that let me import my private key from electrum?


Using the original BTG client. But since this one was also compromised by hacker I don't find it as a best solution. You would also need to download entire blockchain.
Aternatively you can use some android emulator.

Is there a lightweight client like ElectronCash? Strange nobody developed it yet...

Serious devs would make their own fork of electrum for their coin (but given the all issues around I'm not surprised this not happened) and third party devs are not interested to support this coin.

Hello, i used the ht tps://btgwallet.online .I generate a wallet there and used for mine .
Now i want to claim this but i don't find any program to import the private key because said it is invalid  or something like this.
This is my wallet
Address GgASZ2Qvpi2SjmGzt6a1GLEFpLyqycqEDU   (i have almost 4,5 BTG mined on it)
Public 038de5bb6f8278c4b1579baeab59aaa68376bc5218d8be150ec1ef9ccee0fff3d0
Also i have the private key but don't work. I try to use the Coinomi wallet to import it but don't work.
Can you please help me or give me a suggestion for this?

The above mentioned site is most probably scam (please edit the link to not be clickable). I'm afraid you won't get your coins out of it.
As of the invalid error refer to: https://coinomi.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/29000017747-i-can-t-sweep-my-btg-private-key
But I suspect the private key provided to you is not the actual private key to that address.


Why did you used this service? There is so many red flags around (but I bet you found them through official BTG site ... those devs did really amateurish job IMO ... don't even cared about what they are publishing)
1 - the domain ... one of the cheapest domains available.
2 - there is no official announcement of such wallet ... do you think serious wallet creator would stay in silence?

I'm going to put a big warning into OP because this is too much.

EDIT: looks like I made a hurried conclusion ( see post: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/is-httpsbtgwalletonline-legit-2463332 )
The site is not a wallet rather just address generator ... but I would still be cautious using them.

Yes, there is. Just let your electrum to show you the QR of private key and scan it. But if you are using segwit address (begins with 3) it will not work.


Is there any alternative if I was using a segwit address?

I'm not aware of any. But once I found out I'll update OP.

So if anybody knows feel free to reply here.

Can you explain why it will not work if I used segwit address?

I can't ( don't have required knowledge). Just my amateurish opinion. Segwit is using different address format and some additional coding has to be implemented by wallets (to undestand the address format). But devs obviously not so much hurry in. I can't tell why. maybe it's to much work, maybe they don't believe in segwit. Who knows.

Does anybody else having the problem with Coinomi, that the 3 little dots on the right upper side (which when you click show the 'sweep' function) are not showing up? I can't sweep because next to the QR sign, there is nothing else.

No. I don't have 3 little dots there. I see only QR code icon (right after clicking the icon i can scan the code)
Using 5 inch cellphone.

So you can't sweep either or did you find another way to import the privkey?

I can sweep. I just click the QR icon, scan the code and thats it.

Which tab you are? Those 3 dost i see on receive tab. Go to balance tab instead and click the QR code icon (top right).

What you see there is 'share' sign, which has 3 dots connected with lines. What I want to do is import a privkey from the BTC wallet to import it into the BTG wallet. This should be done (in OP) by clicking on the 3 f....g dots and choose 'sweep'. I will try the qr sign and scan the privkey.

Yeah, I realized that. The above mentioned will work.

Scanning the privkey in Bitcoin Core is not possible. What did you use?

Bitcoin Core won't show you QR? I'm using electrum. I guess you have to trust some QR generator.



I have one installed luckily... Thanks Bitford
