Title: [1 BTC bounty] Remove address from Bitcoin Core wallet Post by: makemedoit on January 31, 2015, 12:40:56 PM I need from command line (linux) be able to remove specified address and the private key from a bitcoin core wallet.dat
The same needed to add private key to a wallet.dat from command line, do not want bitcoin-cli importprivkey with it triggets a rescan of the blockchain time consume. example: shutmyduck remove <address> justanotherduckwallet.dat shutmyduck add <privkey> duckwallet.dat if this is already possible with pywallet just show me exactly how to do it and i will pay you.

There's a specific part for removing keys there :)

I believe adding will have to rescan the blocks otherwise it wont know how many funds are in the address I think.

Yes, it will rescan it to check for transactions anyway As for command line options, there's only --importprivkey ou --importhex, noone for removing keys AFAIK :) Title: Re: [1 BTC bounty] Remove address from Bitcoin Core wallet Post by: makemedoit on January 31, 2015, 01:04:25 PM I believe adding will have to rescan the blocks otherwise it wont know how many funds are in the address I think. Not a good idea to add 10000 addresses using importprivkey when each import triggers a full rescan. At least with pywallet i could add the addresses and then bitcoin core could rescan when i start it, but not for each import, it would take a week. Is there anyway to add a private key without trigging the rescan? What if i know that the address has not been used before and i dont care about stupid rescan?

Title: Re: [1 BTC bounty] Remove address from Bitcoin Core wallet Post by: makemedoit on February 03, 2015, 09:23:18 PM Alright, thanks for the importprivkey solution, that was stupid of me to not find myself... Should i give 0.5 BTC for that solution or what is the deal here as it was 1 of 2 questions?
What about the removeprivkey ? anyone have a solution for that? In a PM i got this https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/3654/what-is-the-best-way-to-recover-from-an-accidental-double-spend/3657#3657 I dont know how to compile bitcoin core with "pull #220" and if its compatible with 0.9.4... |
