Title: blockchain.info -> Electrum
Post by: Cryptoneer on December 15, 2017, 03:53:40 AM
Hi, is there a guide or thread about getting the key out of the blockchain wallet and making a new wallet in Electrum and importing it? I can only find a 12 word seed on blockchain.info atm, no base58 uncompressed or compressed key/keys.

I'm helping a friend to migrate from Blockchain into Electrum, if possible.

Thanks.

You should be able to recover it using the 12 words: File => New/Restore => Standard wallet => I have a seed. You type the words, you click "Options" and check the "BIP39 seed", leave the derivation as it is and click next, they should ask for a password, type one and your wallet should be restored.

That worked like a charm, thank you!. First time, it fell on the derivation, the https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ page told me to use another one. Stupid of me.  :-\
