However for any coin the process is the same: import your seed phrase into a compatible wallet with the correct derivation path and it will generate your private key & address too.

I have never used darkwallet, so i can't give you a detailed path to restore your wallet. But isn't it possible to create a new wallet using the old seed? And afterwards either sending your coins to a new address or exporting the private key? I don't know how darkwallet derives keys from a seed. Might be worth checking their github (https://github.com/darkwallet/darkwallet). Bitcoin doesn't have "stealth address (es)" import your seed phrase into a compatible wallet with the correct derivation path and it will generate your private key & address too. He is talking about the Darkwallet (https://www.darkwallet.is/) for bitcoin. I am not sure whether this wallet supports BIP32 (HD wallets) or BIP39 (mnemonic seed). @OP: Does your seed consist of 12/18/24 words? Or does it look like a random string? (Do not expose your seed to anyone!) Edit: OP, you can export the private keys by restoring a wallet with your 12-word seed, then click 'Settings --> Tools --> Export Private Keys'.

I guess you joined bitcoin late, read about it. Dark wallet had stealth addresses and this is an example of one of the addresses I had vJmtK3LT44vwTFfdiCEV5Di7yaWBXot3RwDs98Rp96iVJUX6Nw66gDLPw3MTthHoqyqrmBqzsdfWBgy zirAfGQGbnL5tBbkJcPwJav Title: Re: Dark wallet stealth address Post by: Xynerise on May 10, 2018, 11:32:00 AM I guess you joined bitcoin late, read about it.

I was able to find out the public address associated with this my stealth address: vJmtK3LT44vwTFfdiCEV5Di7yaWBXot3RwDs98Rp96iVJUX6Nw66gDLPw3MTthHoqyqrmBqzsdfWBgy zirAfGQGbnL5tBbkJcPwJa, which is this: 127gF6Hs6eLyLDjySajD8gwJ7MANnGUrPx but I don't know how to find the private key Title: Re: Dark wallet stealth address Post by: Thirdspace on May 11, 2018, 11:27:06 PM Quote from: https://www.darkwallet.is/ Darkwallet is a bitcoin wallet designed to make bitcoin use completely private. I can't find much information on the page, except those aboveSupported features: Stealth payments + CoinJoin mixing = Bitcoin Anonymity Multisignature cooperative wallets it seems darkwallet is a multsig bitcoin wallet, so you probably only hold 1 part of private keys needed I did and it restores my non stealth addresses perfectly using the m/44/0'/0 path but I can't seem to find how to restore the stealth addresses.
