Topic: Retrieving DOGE from Armory (Read 94 times)
This command should also work on OSX.
Also, with sweeping it using those pool keys, I did the first handful but the receiving end said they were all empty; I only ever shot a one or two lump amounts to Armory; should I just keep sweeping them one after another until there is a hit?
You should be seeing something in the first few addresses. Where are you sweeping these? Can the destination Doge wallet generate the addresses for these keys? Can you check if these keys had history at any point in time, not just balance?

Also, how do I target 'satoshi' etc? like, functionally? I truly dont remember how to do any of this and I feel lost as haha
With Windows, from the command line:
Code:
ArmoryQt.exe --satoshi-datadir=*somecustompath* --satoshi-port=*somecustomport*
You can also append the arguments in the target field of a shortcut to ArmoryQt.exe.
With Linux, from the terminal:
Code:
ArmoryQt --satoshi-datadir=*somecustompath* --satoshi-port=*somecustomport*
With OSX:
Code:
god help your soul.

Seeing as the private key retrieval is not working, how do i get armory to go online so i can manually transfer the DOGE out?
How do I get Armory to correctly target the Doge chain, connected to dogecoin core?

I had no idea that's even a thing. You can try to run Doge Core, point Armory to the blockchain data (--satoshi-data) and port (--satoshi-port)
Yeah it was haha - this was years ago, though; im talking pre 2014. Have no idea how I/we did it.

i've never had to do this - sorry for seeming confused haha, I really appreciate the help.

Armory has to be read the blockchain (i.e. get online) to know what addresses are in use. Since you are offline, it cannot give you that data from a freshly restored wallet. This is why you need to pick from the set of unused addresses. How many addresses you should export is based on how much activity you have with Doge. If you remember only receiving coins once, export the first 10 addresses (1 for the the received coins, another 9 for the good measure). If you did 10 tx, export the first 30 or so, and so on.
If you have a decent idea of how much Doge you're supposed to have but not how many addresses you used, keep on importing addresses in batches on 10 until you hit that ballpark.
If you have no idea, import the 100 and take it from there (look at transaction history to get an idea how much activity your wallet had).

Yes, have read through list, none of these are used addresses/keys, but are all part of an unused address pool. It is not showing the private key of my recovered paper wallet.
Is there something that I am doing wrong?
Is there something that I am doing wrong?
Clarification, it seems to be only showing me anything when the "include unused addresses" is also selected, alongside plain base58. Does that mean these are private keys for things that are empty/unused? Are these connected to the recovered wallet?
Hey there,
Thank you so much.
Okay so now there are literally over 50 of these for only one account; do I need to copy them all individually into dogecoin core, or?
What is the next step from here for me to get these out?
Just asking so I can be 100% sure I don't make a mistake.
Really appreciate the responses!

Hey there,
That is what I thought, too, yet when I go to export it it only gives me the same details I used to recover the paper wallet into armory itself, nothing else, none of which is the private key.
It displays:
Wallet version
Wallet ID
Wallet Name
Backup type
Root Key
And that is it.
None of which are the private key, as far as I am aware? Am I missing something?
Thank you for the reply

- cannot access the actual private key without it being online;
You do not need to be online to display/export private keys.
Like the title says, I am attempting to retrieve my doge i've had stored for years from my armory wallet.
-I have installed the latest versions of Dogecoin Core and Armory
-I have successfully restored the paper wallet into armory's 'available wallets' list
- I have downloaded the entire doge chain
- Armory is just constantly "node offline (0 blocks)"
- Seems to be stuck on 'building databases'
- cannot access the actual private key without it being online; cant seem to get it ONLINE to actually do this, so cant even sweep it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please don't judge haha but I haven't touched this in years, and I can barely remember how I got it on there in the first place. Spent hours trying to learn, but have reached this point and hit a wall.
Armory wizards please help : o
