Title: Gross btc in bitcoin core from multiple wallet files Post by: ajaxtempest on May 19, 2022, 10:54:48 AM So i have connected electrum watch only with bwt plugin to bitcoin core. On top right of the corner i have the option to change wallets. Each wallet.dat file shows the btc amount but is there any way the bitcoin core shows gross btc of all the wallets that have been connected?
I dont want to manually calculate btc per wallet. mods i dont know in which sub forum this belongs. Now i see dev and tech discussion forum.

You can put it in Development & Technical Discussion > Wallet software > Electrum mods don't need to.
But no, there is no way to have electrum add all the totals. Evey wallet file is independent of each other. How many are there 2? 5? 10? more? You can export the private keys from all the separate wallets in one, but that takes time and leaves the potential for mistakes. And as been stated many times before, never delete wallet files even if you move everything or they are empty. You never know when you might need something from them. -Dave Title: Import Electrum to Bitcoin Core Descriptor Wallet Post by: nc50lc on May 20, 2022, 05:48:42 AM Each wallet.dat file shows the btc amount but is there any way the bitcoin core shows gross btc of all the wallets that have been connected? Just to be clear, since you're using BWT plugin in, are the "connected wallets" from Electrum?If so, then it's doable using this workaround: Create a "blank descriptor wallet" that will hold all of the wallet's master public keys. Importing each xpub key via "descriptor" can be time consuming but after setting it up, that specific wallet.dat will be able see all of the imported master keys' transactions and total their balances. These are the steps:

You can try to create a "Feature Request" issue in Bitcoin's GitHub repository, here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues)If the developers will find it useful, they may consider implementing a "gross balance" feature.

These are the steps: Super helpful. Thank you! To make this work for a full wallet (non watching only), I did a few modifications: Instead of "xpub" key, import the "xpriv" key gotten by using the command in Electrum's console: getmasterprivate() Add \"active\": true, to the 'receiving' and 'change' descriptors to set those as the active descriptors. Remove \"watching-only\": false, from the descriptors also. Would this work also on a non blank wallet? Or will it cause problems to have multiple active descriptors?

Or will it cause problems to have multiple active descriptors?If you imported another with "active: true", the original descriptor of that script type will be deactivated.
