Bitcoin QT delete address
Manual Steps
- Copy your public receiving addresses from Bitcoin-Qt.
- Go to the Bitcoin-Qt console: click Help/Debug Window and then select the Console tab.
- Run dumpprivkey OurReceivingBitcoinAddress for each receiving address to be migrated to MultiBit.
- Copy the results of dumprivkey for each address (which are the corresponding private keys).
- Start the Multibit client and create a new wallet.
- Open the exported file in a text editor.
- Below the private key generated by MultiBit, paste the private keys you have copied above. Remember to paste them before the End of private keys line.
- After each private key, add a date that is prior to when you created the corresponding wallet. (You can check this date in the Bitcoin-Qt Transactions tab and scrolling to the very bottom.)
- Repeat for all addresses you want to move to Multibit Client.
- Save the key file and import it to the Multibit client using Tools/Import Private Keys.
- In order to protect yourself from theft, delete the private key files.
- Done!
Third Party Approach
- Visit . Drag the Bitcoin-Qt wallet.dat file into the dotted area. Follow the instructions.
- Login to the new wallet. Under the Backup heading click download.
- Open multibit choose Tools -> Import Private Keys. Now import the wallet.aes.json file just downloaded.
- Delete the keys from the blockchain.info wallet.
Since the goal isn’t to setup a blockchain.info wallet you would be much better off using pywallet to dump the wallet and the keys directly.
