Title: Utility to combine multiple wallet.dat files? Post by: jamesg on September 28, 2012, 10:56:26 PM Hello fellow bitcoiners,
Is there a utility available to combine multiple wallet.dat files into one? I've kept a couple different wallets up till now but would like to combine them into one.

I use my Python script (https://github.com/teknohog/bittools) to do this. Exporting and importing keys has some definite advantages compared to sending coins the usual way:

This is really the most important thing to me. I'll definitely be diving into this next week to get the wallet.dat files consolidated. |
