Cannot import paper wallet to Bitcoin Unlimited

Mon Dec 04, 2017 2:27 pm

Hello,

I have an paper wallet that was created before August 1st.
Now I wanted to import or sweep it to Bitcoin Unlimitedor Electrum wallet, but I can't.

On Bitcoin Unlimited when I try to import I got message:

Code: Select all

Invalid private key encoding (code -5)
On Electrum I cannot click "Sweep button" after paste priv key.

I noticed that my privkey have 51 characters, and new ones have 52.

What should I do to access my BTC?

Thank you for your help!

Don't ever import your private keys into an exchange.

Just get a Bitcoin Cash client/wallet and import it there. You can then send your coins to your exchange.

Return to “Bitcoin Unlimited”
