1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Have Raw private key stored in csv file, not stored in wallet.dat file on: May 31, 2024, 03:17:15 AM
The file is like this

1000054567203
3425593
299502494
1000449594949
1000000383889
5046663838

And so on… it takes up all the rows A1-A2000 on most of the files. It’s only data in the A column on the csv file.

Thanks guys for all your help on the matter.

The file is saved under the name bitcoin and has a country attached to it. there are 2 csv files named bitcoin with different countries attached to each.

So i have come across an old bitcoin file from 2012. Its not a wallet.dat file and its not encrypted in any way. Its a .csv file and a .txt file and when i open it, its just tons of numbers in decimal format. basically a private key in a rather raw format.

the first line is 15 digits, second line is 9 digits, 3rd is 8 digits, 4th is 15 digits, and so on...

the file has thousands of rows, no commas. if i remember correctly, its roughly 1 BTC. the guy i bought it from transferred it off a 8gb flash drive straight into my computer. I believe he instructed me to use it to create a wallet on electrum or bitcoin core, but I never did. I have no wallet.dat file. just numbers in a csv file.

How do i extract the private key from this file and generate a wallet out of it?
