Title: How do I sweep in multiple private keys automatically?
Post by: bitanalysis on April 25, 2016, 10:18:58 PM

I have a list of private keys I want to sweep into a single wallet using electrum. I know I sweep from the UI with a list but how do I do the same thing from command line?

Perhaps run a for loop? In bash on linux:

Code:

dest_addr="1somethingsom" #destination address from your wallet

for privkey in `cat my_list_of_keys_one_per_line`
do
electrum sweep $privkey $dest_addr
done
