Hello, I was given a wallet.dat file from a friend to try and recover anything on it. I am using pywallet. I have no idea what any of the public addresses are associated with this wallet. This wallet was also supposedly made before wallet encryption was mandatory.

When I run python pywallet.py --dumpwallet --wallet=wallet.dat  > ~/wallet.dat.json

I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "pywallet.py", line 2316, in parse_wallet
    item_callback(type, d)
  File "pywallet.py", line 2716, in item_callback
    json_db[type] = 'unsupported'
  File "pywallet.py", line 111, in __setitem__
    return super(Bdict, self).__setitem__(bytes_to_str(k), v)
  File "pywallet.py", line 90, in bytes_to_str
    return k.decode()
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xa1 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)


any ideas?

Could you try findwallet and see if it still works?

Please install it first, then disconnect & run it offline. It should extract and dump the private keys in a text file in the same folder.

I've looked into it, and while I couldn't really work around the Windows 10 permission issue, (It's out of my hands, you just simply can't get read access on some folders or files as they might be currently used by other core processes) I added a flag that ignores errors and will keep scanning even if it runs into inaccessible files.

I wish I could manually handle that error when that happens, but it would need me to rewrite my own scanning code and I currently don't have that much time to sink into this.

https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob/issues/284#issuecomment-297567660

The issue is currently still open, and I would like to not lose the dependency on "glob" because it is THE fastest reading package I've tested. I've also updated all versions while I was at it.

So while this won't run into permission errors anymore, you still should know that it will skip files it doesn't have permission to access, if you suspect your wallet was in one of those files, simply plug the drive externally, or run it on a unix-based system.

Is there a way to ignore certain directories? When running the script, it seems to crash on folders it cant access. Getting this error message: "Error indexing a path : Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, scandir", which then kills the process.

Wow Smiley It's been a while since I've been active on the forums so I'm sorry if I didn't see your message earlier.

It seems the process doesnt have permissions to scan the folder, this program was made all the way back in 2018 and both NodeJS and Windows  have upgraded their versions.

I suspect this has to do with windows specifically as even using the main administrator account I run into pemission issues on Windows 10, while this was only tested on Windows 7.

I'll see if I can find time and run it again and see if I run into the same issue myself. I'm really happy people are still using this nearly 3 years later Smiley

BTW, Dire: how did you get that special "D" symbol in your name.  That's pretty cool.

Lol, interesting note

https://theasciicode.com.ar/

Its just one of the many special letters available in ascii

146Æ
155ø
157Ø
158×
159ƒ
225ß

Some other interesting ones that would probably work, I haven't tried it though.
53  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: [H] BTC/ETH [W] 200-500$ Neteller today on: January 25, 2021, 03:33:55 AM

Earlier I tried the forum to exchange neteller but failed. If you need non gambling neteller dollar then you may try exchanger. You may cheek bestchange/okaychange for the best exchange site. Note: From exchange site you won't get gambling fund. You will get non gambling fund from exchange site both for skrill and neteller.

Im also okay with skrill, i need the funds to be non-gambling to deposit into a stock trading broker

I need neteller / skrill today, up to 500$, preferably in one tx
55  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Thoughts about / risks of WBTC? on: January 22, 2021, 12:07:59 PM
What do you guys think about WBTC? I understand it's a proprietary smart contract under a multisig by multiple entities.

https://wbtc.network/

There are "merchants" that can request access to mint and burn requests, and for each of these requests they need a tx that backs the mint with real bitcoins.

Bunch of examples in the page here :

https://wbtc.network/dashboard/order-book

I want to start using WBTC more because the ethereum network allows for things like liquidity pools, yield farming, lending/borrowing trustlessly with margin etc.. But what are the potential attack vectors here?

You have txes like these :

https://etherscan.io/tx/0xe6f95c38659c5ec6a6886771de2fed8fe4d4876eb8e8fc6a180ad63bf93f400b



So the mint request has an amount, btc address, and txid to trigger the mint. This seems to happen manually, since after the tx above, a few hours later this tx approving the mint is exercised :

https://etherscan.io/tx/0x45efef8f065a365dc1259ea2ff3efc158cde397ae8d45a90115646665555c29f

The question remains in the trustworthiness of these custodians. Taken from their press release :

Quote
T​he WBTC DAO members initially consist of AirSwap, BitGo, Blockfolio, Compound,DDEX / Hydro, Dharma, Gnosis, GOPAX, Kyber Network, Loopring Protocol,MakerDAO, OmiseGO, Prycto, Ren, Set Protocol, and TheOcean. Any critical changesto the WBTC structure must be approved by the DAO.

I understand that more projects makes this more secure as multisig becomes harder to compromise but many of these projects are not worth a lot in market cap and thus makes many of them weak links in this group.

Also, can anyone explain why the number of circulating tokens on etherscan is different from the tokens displayed in the "audit" link?

https://etherscan.io/token/0x2260fac5e5542a773aa44fbcfedf7c193bc2c599

https://wbtc.network/dashboard/audit

On a different note, since all of this is done manually I'm guessing WBTC is somewhat immune to smart contract flaws or bugs, as the contract itself is fairly simple and since all mint txes are done by the same individuals there is lesser chance of that sort of issues happening. But like I said above this also makes it prone to different kinds of issues like social engineering or conflict of interest.

What do you guys think about all this? Do you guys use WBTC? Do you have any other ideas or potential black swans for it?

57  Economy / Lending / Best USD (or any stablecoin) borrow rates against bitcoin on: January 15, 2021, 08:58:09 AM
Hi it's been a while since I posted, I thought this might be the best place to ask
I'm thinking of some reasonable leverage trading but the options have gotten worse over the years
Binance seem to have recently upped their USD lending rates by 20% making it a 36 to 44% yearly rate..
I have looked into smart contract solutions like Dai or Aave, which offer reasonable rates, but I'm still worried about risks such as

https://www.reddit.com/r/MakerDAO/comments/fi832z/im_part_of_makerdaos_bug_victims_and_loose_250eth/
https://www.comp.xyz/t/dai-liquidation-event/642

Basically I dont trust WBTC and dont want to be prone to some stupid risk based on oracles and contravts that have prebiously failed several times
What are my best options? Do you guys know other exchanges that offer reasonable rates?

Looking for someone to do 50$. But can do some smaller trades.

Need to be trusted.

1:1 stablecoin.

Did you try to make a deal with someone from the Currency exchange section on the forum?
There are a few very trusted and reputed traders, which is very important to you as a money receiver through reversible payments service like Paypal. If you offering ETH or any stable altcoin, there will be no problem to finish any deal.  Wink

finished this deal with iluvbitcoins, thread closed
