Title: Node - DB47 4.7 - available?
Post by: MikeJ_NpC on March 01, 2022, 03:29:03 AM
Herro,..

Does anyone have a back up of their node running on the last revision?  .. or if there a repository that i can pull from to run a Node on the last blockchain DB47 4.7 revision?
I would very much appreciate it ... or if there is a node rental service which hosts it ?
current version is  db4.8..

Ive been looking for awhile and my backup apparently did not back up .....  Thank you in advance and afterwards too.

Those versions are too old and wont be able to connect to the network.
If you need the binaries, try this: /index.php?topic=68121.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=68121.0) (v0.1) | Read the latest replies for more info.
Or from the old commits: github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/commits/master?before=25.... (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/commits/master?before=25290071c434638e2719a99784572deef44542ad+31645&branch=master) (before September 2011; click "<>" to view the repo's state at that time)

If you create and use the wallet before Bitcoin-Qt 0.4.0, it's very likely the wallet IS NOT encrypted. While it pose security risk, it also means you could simply extract the private key from wallet.dat file and import it to up-to-date Bitcoin wallet software.

If you own device which use linux, you could install db-util package which contain db_dump software which could be used to extract the private key.
