Few side notes, In the keys dump file there is also 2000 strings, all starting with 0014, next to unique addresses.
Another clarification just for my own sake of knowledge, does the key dump from Core actually contain the old wallet data? I had the Wallet file in the bitcoin wallet directory but was never able to actually open it in btc, and the bitcoin core install was entirely new. Does the dump keys command take data from all wallets or only the open ones?
1. It must be your addresses' "
redeem script" since those are P2SH-P2WPKH addresses.
2. Core should keep the old addresses even after changing the hdseed (
like changed passphrase, sethdseed command, etc).
Newer keys/addresses however will have an issue with old backups if the wallet had changed the hdseed after that backup.
Awesome sauce, So i found a way in notepad++ and imported every single (2000) private keys into Electrum, but balance is empty and no history has shown. Matter of fact, Electrum looks identical, other than the fact that its a new wallet.
2000 addresses will take a while to update the history and balance, is Electrum properly connected (
Green circle at the lower-right?).
What do you mean "
identical"? Same addresses?
You've mentioned that it's an old wallet, how old is that exactly? wallet.dat older than 2017 can't have SegWit addresses.
And you should be informed that Altcoin wallet.dat might work when imported to Bitcoin Core but obviously won't have any balance or history.
