Title: Switching from Bitcoin-Qt: How can I import my wallet.dat? Post by: forbun on October 23, 2013, 04:59:34 AM Hi,
I used Bitcoin-Qt a long time ago (before it supported encryption) and I have a few wallet.dat files with a few coins in them. How do I safely/securely import these wallet files into MultiBit? Thanks! Title: Re: Switching from Bitcoin-Qt: How can I import my wallet.dat? Post by: mjb on October 23, 2013, 10:10:36 AM Easy:
Just transfer the coins with bitcoin-qt to a new Multibit wallet (you can create several in the same MultiBit instance and keep them open at the same time). This is the safest way to do it. Hard: Export each private key and import it into MultiBit. There is no automated procedure AFAIK. |
