1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / How can I bulk import private keys from a pywallet dump to new wallet? on: December 14, 2017, 02:20:40 PM
Bitcoin Client Software and Version Number: Bitcoin Core 0.15.1
Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit
System Hardware Specs: i7 CPU with 16 GB RAM 1tb ssd.
Description of Problem: How can I bulk import private keys from a pywallet --dumpwallet command to a new wallet.


I have an old unencrypted wallet file from about 2012. When I use this file with bitcoin core it claims it is corrupted and salvagewallet failed.

I've successfully managed to dump the private keys from from the file using pywallet --dumpwallet to a txt file.... Now I have a ton of keys and am looking for a quick way to import them into a new wallet.
I have Bitcoin Core 0.15.1 is fully in sync with the network and working with a new wallet file.

Im sure I could do it manually, but it would be far too time consuming to complete by hand. Is there a batch import command or method I can get pywallet or Bitcoin core to import the keys?

Thanks
