Title: replace keypool Post by: David Rabahy on September 04, 2013, 07:32:20 PM Suppose I had a weak passphrase and then changed it to a strong one. I worry that the keypool during the weak period needs to be replaced.
Am I obliged to create a whole new wallet or is there a trick to consume the keypool? Title: Re: replace keypool Post by: DeathAndTaxes on September 04, 2013, 07:34:06 PM the default keypool is 100 keys.
if you call getnewaddress 100 times it will remove all existing keys from keypool (and auto replace them with newer ones). from commandline: bitcoind getnewaddress from debug window: getnewaddress Title: Re: replace keypool Post by: gmaxwell on September 04, 2013, 07:41:28 PM If you reencrypt your wallet I _believe_ should consume the keypool and give you a new one. It does on initial encrypt and I've tested this case.
