I think you need a wallet which downloads the entire blockchain.

In bitcoin core open the debug console and use the dumpwallet command to dump your wallet in WIF format.

You should then be able to import the WIF private keys into Electrum

Send me the wallet.dat and I'll check for u.

If it's even slightly corrupted you're basically fucked because it will have messed up your hash. That being said, I wish you good luck.

LMK IF IT WORKS

option 1:
put it in
C:\Users\<you>\AppData\Roaming\Electrum\wallets
then if it is not corrupy, electrum should convert it to a new format and use it

option 2:

option 3:
PyWallet

option 4:

The pic in my op is of wondershare data recovery program deep scan results on an old toshiba hard drive that fucking buzzes when its being used

i don't give a fuck if you believe or not

let us know if you get it working and how much you find in there. i love when people come across old wallets like this.

Here come the spineless beggars

>>3998733
my b

Still can't get it to open. When I import the wallet, nothing happens. Literally nothing. No error, nothing.

Trying pywallet (again)

>>3998733

That's my que

i think i heard of a program that will scan through each byte and just dump each 32 bytes from the file, then you can convert those to compressed and uncompressed WIFs and then check if they have anything on.

i dont believe wallet.dat files were encrypted back then so you shouldnt need a password or anything.

>>3998760
and i hope you made a backup of it before trying these things with it.

>>3998834
>>3998846
Yeah I made a back up of it already

I think you're talking about Pywallet but I can't get that to work since I'm not at all familiar with linux or pyhton or anything non-windows, really

I've read about scanning a hard drive for key signatures or anything that resembles a key or w.e as well

Right now though, I just need to open the wallet.dat

>>3998760
open it with a hex editor and check it's not just all zeroes or something

>>3998880
>I've read about scanning a hard drive for key signatures or anything that resembles a key or w.e as well
Don't touch the original disk at all. Leave it powered off. Maybe take a full disk dump if you can. The keys might not be in the wallet file you recovered, but they could still be on disk.
(unlikely, but still)

>>3998880
nah, theres literally a script out there that would start from byte 0 and read bytes 0 to 32, then 1 to 33, 2 to 34, etc, and convert them all to WIFs, because if there are keys in there, unencrypted, then they would be found.

but that's a last resort if you can't get anything to parse it.

>>3998900
and that's just the wallet.dat file, you don't need to scan any other files because bitcoin doesn't store them anywhere else.

Hey man! hope it goes well. If you find a lot of coins send me 1 BTC and I will post here to verify that you are not trolling :)

>Pywallet
pywallet might be a bitch to use on windows but i have used it easily on linux though. if you want to, try installing ubuntu on virtualbox and using pywallet on that. i can help with the commands if you want or you can just google it.

>>3999031
the command would just be something like:
>python pywallet.py --info --datadir=/home/User/wallet_dir/

or something

>>3998420
Can't you just download the normal bitcoin core wallet and import the wallet somewhere or place it in the bitcoin core installation folder or something?

>>3999092
even better download the version of bitcoin that was out when the wallet file was in use

>>3998953
>>3998979
like fucking vultures, it's pathetic, you don't even know if this guy has 0.001 BTC and you're already here with hat in hand. You should seriously kys

>>3999111

>>3999122
rip biz because I think begging is fucking pathetic? people have no pride whatsoever because they think a few words on an anonymous board require no effort so why not keep casting the line on the one-in-a-billion chance some dude does decide to give them some crumbs. I consider them the lowest form of humanity, I would hurt them beyond anything you could imagine if I encountered these types of people face to face - they aren't even human to me.
