Title: Easiest to install and modify open source Windows wallet? Post by: alikim on June 23, 2017, 06:13:54 PM I need a simple wallet that can import a bunch of private keys in from a file and is able to connect to the network and receive transactions.
Upon receiving and confirming some BTCs I want the wallet to automatically send some of the balance to a certain address. Basically don't need anything else, can be command line though I'd appreciate GUI. I don't see this functionality in any of the popular wallets, so I guess the best option is to modify and recompile those that are open source. I know C++ and could work with Python (but I'd rather not being given half a chance). I looked at compiling Armory for Win from sources and it looks quite nightmarish. Is there a better option? Maybe there is well tested pure C++ wallet that I could modify to my needs? I need this to work under Win 8.1/10 Thank you, Title: Re: Easiest to install and modify open source Windows wallet?

You could also use electrum, as I understand it, the main code in that is written in python and the source code is downloadable from electrum.org.

Post by: HCP on June 27, 2017, 09:58:41 AM Pywallet isn't so much a wallet application as a wallet "utility" that allows you to work with a Bitcoin Core wallet.dat (it seems to be a bit outdated and doesn't seem to handle the newer wallet.dat's very well).
It might be worth looking into the Electrum source code: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum Another option may be to leverage the API's of a site like blockr.io (http://blockr.io/documentation/api) or blockcypher (https://www.blockcypher.com/dev/) and craft up some calls to check for transactions to specific addresses and then use the same API's to broadcast transactions to the network to shift the coins as required.
