The replies to my question here, however well intentioned, do not address the actual problem i am attempting to solve.
Perhaps i wasn't clear enough in my description of the situation.
The electrum.dat wallet file i have is from around the 2013 period - however, in comparing the seed structure of my wallet to other electrum.dat wallets i have created using older releases of the electrum client from the same period, it appears that the seed structure of the wallet i have is markedly different to the 32 character alphanumeric strings that the other wallets i have been creating present in their wallet files, despite them also being of the electrum.dat type.
The developer of Sparrow is attempting to support importing old keystore type electrum wallets into his project, and has been asking me to examine the structure of my wallet to ascertain how he can go about doing this.
As i have mentioned, the older releases of Electrum i have downloaded (from the 'Previous Releases' Index on Electrum.org ) and created wallets with use a 32 character structure for defining the seed in the electrum.dat wallet file, with a seed version defined as 4, BUT mine, despite being from the same period, does not.
The seed structure of my wallet file is defined by a much longer string, containing several groups of alphanumeric data joined together by plus signs, with an equals sign at it's end - and the 'seed version' of the wallet is defined as 18.
I am attempting to discover why my wallet is so different in it's wallet seed structure and seed version number to the other electrum.dat wallets i am able to create using the older releases of the client.

I have recently been in contact with a developer (Craig Raw) on Github regarding my inability to import an old keystore type electrum.dat file into Sparrow wallet. https://github.com/sparrowwallet/sparrow/issues/1080He has been looking into the problem and i have been attempting to inform him of the nature of the keystore aspects of the wallet that fails to import. Looking through previous releases of Electrum (1.8 - 1.9.8 ) which date from around the time (2013) i created the wallet, has shown the seed type in the wallet files to be of an 'old' type, shown as a 32 character alphanumeric string,and the 'seed version' to be 4 in all releases. However, the wallet i have has a wildly different type of seed in the keystore section of the wallet file - with a varied set of strings joined by plus signs, with an equals sign at the end of it, in a much longer overall string. The 'seed version' number is also different, being 18. I'm interested if anyone here can advise as to why my seed and version are so different.

slightly OT, but can electrum sweep a key 'offline' - i mean can the sweep be initiated on an offline wallet and then loaded onto an online machine ?
cos i'm wondering if the sweep function is vulnerable to some form of attack if done on an online machine, as you're sweeping a private key...

franky1, malignant as ever...
what a dismal job he has, posting all this drivel - i think it's driven him mad, actually
i was bemused for a while, but now his deranged rantings are wretched to witness
|
|
|
errr...
is this a comedy thread ?
i may have to ease off the homebrew, cos somedays it's hard to tell...
|
|

arf!
what a load of artificially argumentative chuff on this thread...
in the name of the deranged comedy of 'classic'
|
|
|
ha!
Fucking Rawdog!
just occasionally this place gets a bit of spirit about it...
(even if he is just trying to get u to sell, or whatever he's playing at )
love those rawdog vids on you tube - whether it's the same guy or not - most chucklesome...

ha, look at mircea...
well played, sir.
tippety top...
|
|

arf!
what a load of blather and drivel.
trying to inject social engineering into Bitcoin - 'OH NOES, SEXIST AND THAT!!!'
and then the 'no offence' brigade start grovelling on here - dunno which is more pathetic...
|
|
|
ugh what a bore
this thread has become a party that no one will leave...
oh dear, and i'm still here too
|
|

the desperation of the Klassik Krew has become truly pathetic to witness
they used to be funny, with toomim on drugs and gavin whittling his Bitcoin stick ever smaller with every dismal failure to frighten, cajole and persuade people to adopt his insidious fork - but that was yesterday...
oh dear, gavin, your trousers are down - somebody tell him, he doesn't seem to be able to hear any of us when we say it...
|
|
|
and the propaganda war continues...
trying to control the narrative of the project using the media, after failure to seize control of the code with Classic/XT/whatever
some amusingly deranged, and fake comments on this thread, too - albeit from some of the usual suspects

it's like whole threads full of 2MB zombies have shuffled over from r/btc to here lately
a Bitcoin/George Romero movie mashup...
it's total overshill - is anyone taking all these ( how many now ? ) full blox!!! FUD threads seriously ?
|
|
|
spam spam spam
probably a tit for tat thing IF the DDOS on Classic was real just recently, and not of their own doing (which also wouldn't surprise me)
so boring to still be fending these gimps off...
|
|
|
the spooks seem to be trying to bore us to death with their drivel
only paid shills and/or mental defectives would go on and on like they do
perhaps they consider it respite to come here, rather than thrash around in that sewer full of rabid zombies at r/btc
anyhoo... onward!

the whole thing feels like a PR pantomime
this thread's a lurid promotion of it
more attempts at politically motivated influence of development
|
|
|
ye gods, are classic still howling into the void about this ?
it was over at least a week ago....
onward !
