Topic: REWARD 1 BTC! Electrum wallet help me! - page 3. (Read 583 times)

please tell me which command through the console will allow me to extract xprv

you can also try to import the xprv key directly
just copy the xprv key
in electrum chose File -> New / Restore
Select standard wallet
After that select "Use a master key"
Paste your xprv key in there and thats all
it should work without any problem

yes i have this error
 I open wallet dat and immediately gives errors

"electrum\gui\qt\main_window.py", line 507 , in load_wallet
   File "electrum\util.py", line 469, in do_profile
   File "electrum\wallet.py", line 3324, in try_detecting_internal_addresses_corruption
   File "electrum\wallet.py", line 3329, in check_address_for_corruption

but when restoring via xpub and xpriv, I see the same wallet as from the restore seed balance 0 and a small part of my wallets with old transactions, all my wallets start from 1

no, it's really that big, can this file help me somehow? As far as you all know, I would not have these files if I just bought a normal corrupted one date wallet file, I'm trying to restore access to my wallet, as I wrote earlier, all my addresses that I see in the file give an error with a balance starting with 1 and these are indeed my addresses.

The error message is cut-off, there should be a final message saying the actual issue like "electrum.bitcoin.InvalidChecksum: calculated..."
What does it say?

But it usually happens when your master public key is invalid or other corruption-related issue.
How old is the wallet exactly?

This doesn't normally happen since a corruption usually renders the master private key invalid which will result with a different error when sending transactions.
Since it passed and proceeded to sign the transaction with the wrong key, the master private key is valid but it's not related to the txn's input.

For the record, you're the second one to report this in bitcointalk and with the exact same "wallet.dat" wallet file name.
Since you insist that it's not bought or tampered, it may be a new attack to edit wallet file contents to the attacker's addresses or scheme of fake Electrum wallets, or just a "lucky" corruption which resulted with a valid master private key.
IDK.

Are you sure you don't mean megabytes?

Where did you get those private keys?

Are those transactions coming from the addresses you thought had funds? If so, your wallet if empty. If not, you have the wrong seed phrase or you may have to "Extend this seed with custom words" to get to your other wallet.

It helps if you write a clear overview. It's hard to read if you throw everything in one very long sentence.

first of all note down the address(es) with balance
then you can go to this website https://iancoleman.io/bip39/  and save the page locally (after that disconnect internet access)
open your original electrum wallet file with notepad and copy the xpub from keystore.
Open the saved page on your computer and enter your xpub value in the BIP32 Root Key field.
After that click on BIP32 tab and see if your address is in the list.
From here you can generate more addresses on the same derivation path or change the derivation path until you find the address you are looking for.
After you find the correct settings you can replace the xpub value in the BIP32 Root Key field with the xprv key from electrum wallet file and it will generate the coresponding private keys which you can import in your preferred wallet (bitcoin core / electrum)

OK. As I said, your wallet file is probably corrupted and that's why you get that error when trying to make a tranasction.

It's possible that the xpub and xprv you have in your wallet file are wrong and your addresses can't be derived from them.
Don't you get the following error when you open the wallet?

To ensure greater transparency, it would be a good idea to share with us one of your bitcoin addresses or to share it with a trusted member if you care about your privacy. And I do not think that there is a problem in telling us about the total amount in the wallet that you would like to recover.
Nor do I advise you to accept support in private. There are many scammers out there who will try to make you believe that there is a solution in exchange for sensitive information about your wallet.

It is a little bit strange how you can't recover your btc using the PK of the address containing funds.
I'm not a technical expert but I thought this suggestion might help you find a solution. Have you thought about using the file with an older version of Electrum? Or use the same old version on the same laptop that you found. In this case, it is not important that the wallet connects to the Internet. All we want is that you can be able to sign a transaction that includes the entire amount on the wallet to a new address. Broadcasting the transaction can be done using a new Electrum wallet connected to the Internet on another device.

Okay assuming the original wallet was regenerated using Electrum and you have the correct seed. Before we more move forward:

- Can you drop a btc address that has balance. I would like to see if see which type it starts. btc1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, 3xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx or 1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Step by step, okay.

For quicker communication you can contact me on telegram: https://t.me/Royse777

PS: You can have a at-least minimal trust on me. I have a campaign management service and weekly I am paying around $10k to $15k to many of the campaigners who work with me. So you don't need to worry about your balance to be stolen, I will not ask for sensitive information like show me seed and things LOL

no, I said I have an electrum wallet, I tried recovery using bitcoin core and bitcoin cash (all these wallets give an error that this wallet belongs to electrum), bitcoin core simply cannot read it, this wallet has always belonged to me. Does Electrum create a default wallet according to the standard? I just renamed it. After all, I said that I have not only a wallet dat file, I also have files that I wrote about at the beginning

i tried it now in the wallet where my balance is 0 as you asked, in this wallet my addresses are not visible with the balance that i see in the date wallet, it has a balance of 0 and only some old transactions are visible, transactions of those addresses that i see in this wallet this is just a small part of my addresses that are in the date wallet, there are no addresses with a balance in this wallet, i also tried this in the date wallet and it gave me the same balance as it was before (not equal to 0) but I can’t withdraw either because of errors, electrum has resynchronized >>> wallet.change_gap_limit(100)
True
can a blockchain header file help me? it is very large in volume, but I don’t even know its purpose

I am not going to deceive anyone here, if you do not know the way to solve my problem, then there is no need to worry. I can provide any information and perform any action with the wallet that is required of me to regain access to my funds and reward the one who helps me, thank you

As you can see old transactions, you are in the correct wallet and derivation path

Try this code in the console.


See if the balance shows up. Try this in the wallet where you see old transactions

Wallet.dat?
Wallet.dat files are for bitcoin core, not electrum.


The error says that you are signing your transaction with a wrong private key.
You have purchased the wallet file. Am I right? If so, the seller gave you a corrupted wallet file and you have been scammed.


Someone created a similar topic reporting the same error when trying to make a transaction.
[HELP] Electrum script failed


There are two scenarios:
1. You have been scammed.
2. You created this topic to sell your corrupted wallet file and scam others.

nothing changes, if I try these paths, then my balance is 0 and in general I see all these addresses for the first time, they have 0 transactions. If I restore the wallet without a choice just using seed, then only a small part of my addresses with 0 balance and very old transactions are restored, I also tried m / 0/2 as I wrote above and also did not work. Yes, I have a seed and I try everything with it, because I see the seed with the help of wallet.dat which gives a transaction error, but I also see private keys with it and all my transactions, I wrote about this abovemy problem is that using wallet dat i can't send transactions due to errors, even when opening electrum it gives errors like i wrote above

To do so you need to restore using the seed phrase. You said you have the seed.

Create a new wallet, select I have the seed, and then try all paths.

Did you create the seed (originally) using electrum? If so, do not  check bip39 seed

Guide heere

https://bitcoinelectrum.com/restoring-your-standard-wallet-from-seed/

when i go to electrum wallet settings information seed aviable true (standart) keystore type bip32 derivation path m BIP32 root fingerprint d045d4d9 script type p2pkh and when i click on any address from those that have a balance, for example one of them shows the output path m /0/2 and I have a private key from this wallet, but when it is normally imported, it gives me a balance of 0 and the wrong address, what should I do with this, help me in more detail, unfortunately I can’t send screenshots on this forum

where should I click so that I get a selection menu like in your screenshot? all my addresses start with 1 and their private keys are L or K

First, do not accept any kind of help in private. There are a lot of scammers here, and you should have only public discussions.

It looks like you have the private key, but your balance shows zero.

Do you remember which were the first characters of your addresses with balance? I believe you are having a problem with the derivation path.

You should try derivation path for all 3 main address formats

Create 3 new wallets, one for each of these derivation  path and see if it works

Hello, I am ready to reward someone who helps me with an electrum wallet. In general, I found my file on an old laptop with an electrum folder, I have several files and one of them is my wallet.dat 24kb in size, it has a lot of addresses with my balance, but more on that later, I have blockchain_headers files with a size of 46 kilobytes. config 1 kb, daemon and recent servers. My mistake is that on the old laptop everything worked fine by opening wallet dat and displaying my bitcoins, but in the latest version when opening wallet.dat it gives errors when opening File
"electrum\gui\qt\main_window.py", line 507 , in load_wallet
   File "electrum\util.py", line 469, in do_profile
   File "electrum\wallet.py", line 3324, in try_detecting_internal_addresses_corruption
   File "electrum\wallet.py", line 3329, in check_address_for_corruption

and when sending a transaction:
the error Script failed an OP_EQUALVERIFY operation

and I can’t withdraw bitcoins at all, I tried restoring via private keys, but generally gives out other addresses with a balance of 0, I tried to restore using a seed phrase but gives me wallets without a balance and with old ones transactions, that is, the balance is 0, and when I enter wallet dat and with these errors, electrum shows my old normal balance, but I can’t withdraw bitcoins because of these errors, the Internet connection is stable, can I somehow restore my wallet by deciding those line errors (removing those errors with python) ? Will additional files to the wallet blockchain headers help me or others that I have? If someone helps me, I'm ready to reward him!
