Title: Is that any way to ask bitcoind about balance of address which is not in wallet? Post by: overc on August 13, 2014, 09:21:14 PM Hi All!
Is that any way to ask bitcoind about balance of address which is not in my wallet.dat file? I would like to receive payments to my addresses which are in cold wallet and I do not want to rely only on blockchain.info API. Thank you in advance.

Been asked many times and currently, no, bitcoind can't do that. You can try using a wallet that works in 2 modes: online and offline. The online wallet will show the balance, but will not have the private keys. Title: Re: Is that any way to ask bitcoind about balance of address which is not in wallet?

I would like to use only the core bitcoin wallet. So, the core wallet does not have such feature: online and offline mode, does it?

It's already merged to bitcoin trunk codebase: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/4045 So build a latest unstable, or wait to next release.

Thanks (If waiting, need to wait for 0.10 in case there are other releases that are not 0.10) Title: Re: Is that any way to ask bitcoind about balance of address which is not in wallet? Post by: williamj2543 on August 16, 2014, 06:18:33 AM Sadly its not possible. Does txindex change anything? The best way currently would probably be an api like blockchain.info/rawaddr/ and decode the json
