Thanks for the info. trying to run primecoin, but it seems completely dead, zero connections. Looks like it was last updated in 2014. Anybody have any suggestions?

I tried exploring the old coins from 2013 no luck. I ran pywallet to see what kind of name and version numbers I get. All I got was

],
    "minversion": 60000,
    "mkey": {},
    "names": {
        "ALUMnWGxXWFcQp9T76fT75iCKv4sTVDjfb": ""
    },

Does anybody recognize ALUMnWGxXWFcQp9T76fT75iCKv4sTVDjfb as an address of any coin?


if you try to decode it on http://lenschulwitz.com/base58
you will see that the first 2 digits are 17, which are "coin version"

according to a table here: https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/19589/how-to-determine-what-type-of-coins-a-wallet-dat-contains/29413
17 is Primecoin

checking Primecoin explorer shows no activity on that specific address, but you can try to download the wallet and rescan

If you get rich, let me know ^^

no dice on any of those addresses being litecoin or bitcoin.  just ran them all through some block explorers with no luck.  The ultimate treasure hunt!

I found an old wallet.dat thought it was an old bitcoin file, but when I loaded bitcoin core that proved to be false  Tongue. I have no idea what kind of altcoin this is. Any help is greatly appropriated,

this is what I got when I exported the transaction file.
