Hello
I lost my bitcoin node. I have my rpc username/password. My wallet.dat and keys all backed up
I installed a new bitcoind instance to run a full node. I am trying to get my bitcoins
I have setup a new bitcoin.conf file w/ old rpc username and password
I imported my wallet.dat file to replace default
I cannot start the server. Could't connect to server: unknown (code -1)
Can someone please advise.
How do I get my wallet (bitcoins) -> what is the best way. If I have the wallet.dat, passphrase, privkeydump...
Thank you,
Your bitcoins are on the blockchain. Your private keys allow you (or your wallet) to create transactions to move / spend it.
Find a working trustworthy wallet to load the private keys of addresses with balances and the new wallet will let you spend your bitcoins.
No need to mess with the wallet.dat file if you already have the keys.
