Title: Exporting extended keys
Post by: ImSkrt on March 07, 2021, 08:51:41 PM
Is there any way possible to extract/dump/export the extended public key and extended private key from the bitcoin core wallet?
All help is appreciated!

Bitcoin Core's derivation paths are hardened so there's no extended public keys, if that's what you're looking for.

If you're looking for child private keys and extended master private key, then it's possible. In the console, run
Code:
dumpwallet "e:/walletdump"

Replace it with your own path to file.
