Bitcoin Core Wallet - Private keys and importing from cold storage

[unlimited_020]

Hi,

I use Bitcoin core wallet to store my bitcoins. Is it possible to find the private keys for the addresses in my wallet? Also, is there a way to import bitcoins from cold paper storage? I know it is possible through something like blockchain to import a private key but I was wondering if there was a similar function for bitcoin core wallet?

- Click "Help", "Debug window" and "Console"
- Type walletpassphrase <passphrase> <timeout> to unlock your wallet (skip this step if you haven't used a password)
- Type dumpprivkey <bitcoinaddress> to get the private key of that address

Also, is there a way to import bitcoins from cold paper storage?

- Type importprivkey <bitcoinprivkey> to import your private key
