Title: Need help to dump my private key on Bitcoin Core Post by: hatakeyudu on September 13, 2020, 05:18:07 AM I know that the private key is important. Lose it, I will lose my bitcoin.
I download Bitcoin Core, install it and get my wallet but I don't know how to dump my private key in my wallet. I search and see a command dumpprivkey address, it can be used but if I have 100 bitcoin addresses and each one have bitcoin, what to do? Use the command 100 times is not a good idea because with the 100 times I can make mistakes. Thank you and happy weekend.

Go to command line, unlock your wallet if necessary and then use this command: Code: dumpwallet "[INSERT DIRECTORY HERE]/wallet.txt" For my case, I did Code: dumpwallet "C:/Users/ranochigo/wallet.txt" Title: Re: Need help to dump my private key on Bitcoin Core Post by: Abdussamad on September 19, 2020, 02:32:31 PM if you want to backup your wallet use the command under the file menu. don't go messing with individual private keys.

If you really want to store all your 100 private keys, you can write a simple script to run the command and send to a file each address and the corresponding PK. I think that can be done. Or, in a more weird fashion, you can do it manually, like 10 addresses today, 10 addresses tomorrow, etc, but that's a PITA. |
