That's the private key, edit your post and remove most of the characters immediately!
All you need to display is the first or first three characters, it will be stolen even if the last 10 characters are crossed-out.

What seems to be the problem is the address that was derived from the key doesn't have any balance (inputs).
This could mean that the format of your Electrum wallet and BitcoinCore's are different.

When sweeping:
If Core's address starts with "1" type: p2pkh: before (prefix) the private key.
If "3" use: p2wpkh-p2sh: ; if "bc1": p2wpkh:

Also, you might wanna check on an online blockexplorer if the "recieving wallet address" that you've specified has a balance.

To clarify to the OP: in Electrum, when sweeping the private key, you must use those prefixes depending on the type of address you got on Bitcoin Core.

If Core's address starts with "1" type:   p2pkh:PRIVATEKEYHERE   as the private key when importing.
If it starts with "3" type:   p2wpkh-p2sh:PRIVATEKEYHERE   as the private key when importing.
If it starts with "bc1" type:   p2wpkh:PRIVATEKEYHERE   as the private key when importing.

It's obviosly the same the last poster said, but it's extremely important you do this as fast as possible, that's why I tried to explain it with other words.

However PLEASE, as nc50lc said, edit your post NOW to avoid getting your coins stolen. Google provably already cached this page, so it's just a matter of time that address is compromised and the funds it has now and in the future are lost.
42  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Is there a way to automatically forward received coins to multiple addresses? on: March 21, 2019, 09:57:37 PM
The solution for this is integration with your address management system through a ZeroMQ instance, using the provided Bitcoin Core options:
Quote
ZeroMQ notification options:
-zmqpubhashblock=<address>   Enable publish hash block in <address>
-zmqpubhashtx=<address>   Enable publish hash transaction in <address>
-zmqpubrawblock=<address>   Enable publish raw block in <address>
-zmqpubrawtx=<address>   Enable publish raw transaction in <address>
This is part of the normal options you can use when running bitcoind or bitcoin-qt, available at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin
43  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Help Needed Recovering old wallet.dat file from 2011 on: March 21, 2019, 06:11:44 AM
I forgot to post the result.  I kept getting a message that wallet file was corrupted.  I sent it to a friend, bitcoin miner from way back, and he checked it and the balance was 0, but he also got the corrupted message and said he had never seen that before so he wanted me to try and check it on my old hard drive but I haven't done it yet.  I don't think there is anything recoverable, if there was anything to begin with.  Sad
Even if it's corrupt, you may be able to get some results using other methods.

Please note it's strongly recommended to backup your entire drive (or even working with a drive clone, if possible) before trying to recover the keys. A boot CD/USB is a great way to achieve this.

Then, here is a guide on how to use pywallet for searching keys: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=38004.0 (credits to LoyceV for listing it on his thread).

As a last resort, I repeat - as a last resort, and working with a backup: the -salvagewallet command may be able to recover some of the keys: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin#Command-line_arguments

Which commands are you using to unlock the wallet?

AFAIK, this should be what you would need to do in order to get the private key from <address> using passphrase <passphrase>:

Did you try removing the "gen=1" option?

47  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Safest way to embed QR code to website/emails after Google charts depreciated? on: March 19, 2019, 09:10:34 PM
It is/was actually unsafe and privacy-harming to use Google charts (and any other API for that matter) for generating QR codes on anything related to cryptocurrency.

You can generate QR codes browser-side with a Javascript library like https://davidshimjs.github.io/qrcodejs/

It's extremely easy to use. Make sure you self-host the .js file to avoid any potential attacks.

Thanks for reply.
In what way could I've been hacked? There's nothing unusual in my pc, I'm a crypto noob but not a PC noob, and I don't even have a file with the seed. I just don't get how this is possible. Electrum was definitely downloaded from electrum.org, I checked in my history. I didn't receive any error message and made no upgrade since 20 december 2018.
This is the fake mandatory upgrade attack other users are talking about: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5090097.0
49  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Latest version of Core wont run on Windows 10 on: March 12, 2019, 10:56:28 PM
Can you try running bitcoin-qt with the -debug -printtoconsole options from a CMD?

Command line options reference: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin
50  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Latest version of Core wont run on Windows 10 on: March 11, 2019, 08:57:38 PM
Have you checked if it's still running in the task manager?

Is there anything in the last logs at %APPDATA%\Bitcoin\debug.log?
51  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Trusted blockchain download source for mass installation on: March 09, 2019, 01:36:47 PM
From what I've seen, it's best to have Bitcoin Core download everything on it's own.
If you run 20 nodes in the same data center, it might be worth using something like rsync to transfer data from one server to all others.
Thanks a lot for your reply.

The plan is for them to be located on as many different locations as possible.

What is the bottleneck with the current version for the download? I'm asking because if it's the network, I can get a 10G server to download the data and use rsync later as you said (some locations have quite limited ports, and I think rsync will be faster in those cases).
52  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Trusted blockchain download source for mass installation on: March 09, 2019, 01:05:03 PM
I'm planning to setup around 20 full nodes, and in order to make the process as fast as possible I was looking for a way to speed the "bootstrap" process.

Last time I did this there was a torrent regularly updated I think, as well as a site with a public download.

That was quite a few years back - now I've found a few of them, but I'm unsure if any of them are maintained by the community / a trusted community member, as I'd obviously prefer to use a trusted data source.
53  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Connect to public Bitcoin node on: March 04, 2019, 06:51:18 PM
To connect to a specific node, use this in the console:
Code:
addnode 1.2.3.4 add
(Make sure to replace 1.2.3.4 with the node address.)

You can also add the following line/s to your bitcoin.conf file:
Code:
addnode=1.2.3.4
54  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Wallet at bitcoin.de on: February 27, 2019, 02:04:47 PM
I personally highly advice you to switch from E-mail TAN to Google Authenticator:

Quote
If you want to change your 2-factor authentication, e.g. change from password table to Google Authenticator, select the following option

"my Bitcoin.de -> Settings -> 2-factor authentication"

Here you need to disable your active 2-factor authentication first by entering a valid one-time password or a combination of your password table. Subsequently you can activate a different 2-factor authentication via the same menu item.
Source: https://www.bitcoin.de/en/faq/how-can-i-change-my-current-2factor-authentication-otp-method-password-table/181.html

I will repeat again: Google Authenticator. Do NOT use SMS authentication to protect your Bitcoins.
55  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Address List Hardware Wallets on: February 13, 2019, 07:35:28 PM
I thought so that this would be the right way. but how can i then specifically send from 1 address?

generating them is step 1, but if i then have to send from lets say 10 specific addresses that i have the private key on my Trezor, how would that work?

i cannot just paste the public key (address) and then sign it with my trezor. i don't know any software that allows that or am I missing something?
From my understanding, there should be no way to get the xprv (the xpub's equivalent private key) from your Trezor, so you would have to still authorize each transaction manually. This is because the private key never leaves your device.
56  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Address List Hardware Wallets on: February 12, 2019, 07:27:47 PM
You use the XPUB for that. It's available in the Trezor wallet by clicking on the device name > "Account public keys (XPUB)".

Be careful with those keys - while not allowing spends, they allow anyone to list all the public addresses in your wallet.

These two tools can be used to get all the addresses given a XPUB:

So Mt Pelerin will be a Bank, not an electronic money institution? Most other projects are just EMIs.
That's true - many people don't seem to get the difference between an EMI and a bank.

They want to launch a real bank.

It's already available, check buff88.com Smiley
Then I'm going to have a look. Do you know if I can do the registration as user in The website now?
Yes, you can register and place bets. There are quite a few fun casino games as well.

According to ingotcoin.io the IC Wallet is planned to be released on Q4 this year, and on Q2 2019 IC Digital Bank will start working.

Will the IC Digital Bank end up replacing the IC Wallet or remain as two separate entities?
