Yay! Bingo! It works in Electrum

You saved my ass from weeks of waiting

Thanks guys

Hi guys,

I created new wallet using bitcoin core but I don't want to wait for full sync. I'm trying to move my bitcoin address to the Electrum I used 'dumpprivkey' and tried to restore it using electrum but unfortunately it restores it with wrong address. If I put my btc address in electrum I can see my bitcoins but can't use them.

See screenshot: http://prntscr.com/j94wmu

Tool 'importprivkey' in bitcoin core restores right address.
I also can't import right address on blockchain.info using given private key.

The https://www.bitaddress.org/ 'wallet details' shows that 'wrong' address as 'Bitcoin Address Compressed'.

Bitcoin core v 0.16

can anyone help me?
