1  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: [TUTORIAL] How to extract Bitcoin Gold from a 2fa Electrum Wallet [STEP BY STEP] on: January 04, 2018, 05:24:28 PM
@ApproximateSunlight

Thank you very much! That guide is a master piece. Super easy to follow and do the steps by yourself! Thats need to be tipped so here u have my small piece!

I need to say it one more time: This is really great work! Even the guy that doesn't know anything about computer would do this but it seemed like a Pro-level thing to do when i was reading other "guides". Great work one more time!!

Does your X1 xprv and X2 xprv actually look like this: xprv9vBq3lgskdah4l5h2yt894th93hhbcbsdcgbhsjcguyegfUYGJHGFJHGFg34ff1Z68Mt3vsB3k6SVFk M

That is to say... does it start with the 4 letters "xprv" or does it look something like this: RhooCVdENKkQnsw1SelJzYpJetYscSqnHnc7vKw0bvsKpzv5VquuNKSsX6gBm74wWgv493iawJMGBFF 12OkUfZsES6L2fxDMpdYlfJtpJohGLuGj1sM7mGPppejGFZ9pbRrx1KUJnnQPvCFcaDzVVU5FAmCBVm +ykAuOqLxf2ME=


If it looks like the 2nd example (and ends in =)... "Rhoo.... ME=", then I suspect you have set a wallet password... as per the instructions, when you create the disabled 2FA wallet, you must NOT set a wallet password, otherwise the keys are encrypted and you cannot copy/paste them from the wallet file.

Use: "Wallet -> Password", enter your current password and then leave the new/confirm password boxes BLANK. This will remove the password from your wallet file and when you open the wallet file, you should see that your xprv is now unencrypted and starts with "xprv"

Thanks, that was it Smiley and btw: Do i need to synchronise whole BTG blockchain via BTG core wallet or i can do next steps without it?

Step 6

I see x1, x2, x3 priv key in the wallet file but when i copy e.g X1 to create new wallet, electrum doesn't show "next" button like i would write the wrong xpriv key.

What am I doing wrong here? I need to create wallet_1 with xprv key X1 and wallet_2 with xprv key X2 right? The X3 xprv key says "null" - assuming this means i got disabled 2FA right?

I know i don't need to "recover funds" in any wallet. It was just a term that i thought will be easier to explain what i mean. I just wanted to hear clear answer - Yes, with this seed from Coinomi you can "recover" your funds at anytime, anywhere, no matter how much different coins you have there.

I don't need to know what tools i need to use to "recover" them now, cuz i have a seed and when i will lose my devices for some reasons then i will be interested in it. Just needed an assurance that having that ONE seed (instead of having one seed from one wallet for one coin) will guarantee me that my funds will never be lost and i will be able to "recover" them when i want.

Your answer is what i wanted to hear but in different words, I hope... Cheesy:D

Thanks Smiley

no, the seed is not enough.

it's just a password from which a software creates private keys. you need to know which algorithm is used to create the private keys.
in other words: you need the seed AND the "manual" how to do operations with this seed to create (or re-create) the private keys.

if you backup the seed, it is the same as if you backup the password to your creditcard, but not the credit card itself.
if you lost the card, you need someone who knows what was on the chip of the card (the banking account numbers) to get back access to your funds.

So i will use this tool https://coinomi.com/recovery-phrase-tool.html to extract my private key for every coin i hold on Coinomi, then i'm 100% sure my funds wil never be lost (if i don't lose these keys of course).

I think everything is clear for me now.

Thanks @gedor, @xdeltax

I know this tool. I used it to recover funds in electrum from Multibit seed. But i meant this:

- I have Bitcoin, golem, ETH, DOGE coins on Coinomi for example.
- I have 1 seed for all of them in Coinomi.
- The project goes down.
- I remember the seed so now i'm searching e.g for Golem and Dogecoin wallets available on PC and for each of this wallets i can "convert" this ONE seed from coinomi to recover funds in each one of these wallets?

someone may correct me if i'm wrong:

you don't need to "recover funds" in any PC-wallets. you own coins if you know the private key(s).

with your seed (and some crypto-magic) you can recover all your addresses and the corresponding public and private keys for each coin coinomi supports.

with the private keys written down (paperwallet), you can delete the app. that's all you need for spending the coins.

the "crypto-magic" can be found inside the source-code of the app and the recovery-tool, too. print out the source code and you can re-code your own version of the tool, 20 years after the zombie-attack.

You can extract your private keys using this tool : https://coinomi.com/recovery-phrase-tool.html

But I think they don't include all the coins in their wallet, so if the project is closed in the future, they probably release more advanced version of this tool.

Where do you store your golem for a very long term investment?

Let's say i want to keep 5 different coins on Coinomi. After installation and creating a wallet for all 5 currencies i get only 1 seed from this app. Will i be able to recover all funds using that 1 seed in wallets for each coin in the future if the project would go down for any reason?

Do anybody knows what is the MAX Supply of this coin? I've searched for this information a long time but still haven't found a clear answer. If the supply is unlimited or super high it won't go up to couple of dollars for a decade. I own some SIA because its a great project but i don't see it coming high in price due to high supply of the coins.
