Title: How change bitcoin wallet, client (bitcoin-qt to multibit) Post by: shaman8 on April 28, 2013, 10:49:33 AM Hi there,
regular bitcoin-qt wallet take around 10GB disk space. I want change this wallet to multibit (or other good option - suggestions are welcome). Basically what I need: I need keep rights to receive bitcoins on addresses which are set up in my current bitcoin-qt wallet. How I can export these addresses to another client? Is there any export-import option? - I cannot import .dat file into multibit.

Quote Import private keys from the reference client This is not currently supported. The easiest way to achieve it is to simply perform a standard Bitcoin transaction to the address provided by MultiBit.

I edit a little bit my question: "Basically what I need: I need keep rights to receive bitcoins on addresses which are set up in my current bitcoin-qt wallet." So multibit is not good option for this. Any suggestion for lightweight bitcoin wallet program?

Correct homepage is http://bttomt.somee.com chungtinton, where did you hear about this? Have you seen source, or have any contact info for the author? It looks suspicious to me. No contact info at all on the site except for the hosting company. No author identified. No source available. Google turns up very few results: This thread, one StackExchange thread where it's been downvoted three times, and one defunct former domain. I'd be very careful with a program like this. You're giving it access to your private keys, and it could be sending them anywhere. |
