Hey subStrata!,

ive done it. now it shows 0 balance. and encrypt button is available.

But now its all syncing. does it have to sync everything to see my balance?


it would have to sync at least up to the block where the last transaction associated with the addresses in your wallet are contained to show an accurate balance. bitcoin core downloads the entire blockchain and keeps it up to date in order to properly keep track of transactions, history, etc. just let it sit and with any luck you might be able to access your coins in a day or two (or however long it takes for the client to sync).

Hey thanks. im letting it to update. if it doesnt go throughh (im sure im not that lucky),

Ill try what u mentioned in one of the other threads - the btc recover.

Thanks again!

So i really want to know- since i dont have my password,

Can i replace the wallet.dat file that comes along with the default installation of Bitcoin core- and get the value of the wallet back?

thanks for your time!

Thanks for your reply sub Strata! This procedure is for the wallets that's created only via multibit? sorry again i'm not good at these.

But i'm sure i created the wallet through blockchain.

On a side note - i have the backup file (turns out its actually not useful if i lose my password*)
Anyways,

Is there a procedure like the link i shared earlier to recover my wallet? I had lost my password.

Please bear with me for the confusions Huh Cheesy

Hello People!

Yes, i'm one of the unfortunate ones who actually lost a very few of my bitcoins. And i'm sure some of you might have too. its a very dark feeling lol.

I just happen to come across one of the posts that was posted on this site. which looks promising to a noob like me.

I just wonder if it could be true - while Multibit is not supporting anymore of its developments.

What do you guys think?

With the wallet. dat file can i do anything to recover like this?

If you still have all your files and your computer is not comprimised then will you be safe.

Listen to me this is very important:

STAY CALM

Many people loose their bitcoin in the process of recovering them.
As long as you stay clam and think very carefully about what you are doing, then are you good.
