Hello guys some assist can be appreciated with the next. I’ve 2 pockets.dat backups from the identical pockets however I’m assuming at completely different instances backed up from 2013 which have been from an early model of bitcoin QT utility, I consider 1 could have been from home windows and the opposite from Mac I’m unsure if that makes any distinction, I now not have the PCs by which they have been created or something apart from the pockets.dat recordsdata. I’ve downloaded bitcoin core V26 and restored each pockets recordsdata and synchronised to the blockchain community. Each wallets present all transactions made and present stability, each wallets stability match however 1 pockets which I assume was the unique reveals preliminary transaction btc acquired adopted by 3 transactions of despatched btc so the transactions present incoming x – a – b – c = out there stability, and the opposite pockets reveals x – a then sends the remaining stability to handle and receives that stability at that tackle to mirror appropriate stability, it then repeats this for transaction b and c the place it subtracts my transaction adopted by emptying stability and receiving once more at new tackle.
I’m having bother with accessing as a result of incorrect passphrase, I believed I had a fairly good concept of the passphrase however seems to be troublesome, my query is is there something I may very well be lacking that may very well be inflicting this? Would each backups have the identical passphrase? One file is 64kb the opposite is 80kb if that’s any significance Can a 2013 bitcoin qt backup merely be restored into the most recent bitcoin core pockets with none points, there was no seed phrase on the time and I don’t recall there being any necessities for the passphrase apart from being 10 or extra characters, is there a approach to discover out what date the pockets.dat recordsdata have been created within the encryption? If I can see all transactions and out there stability does that imply that the file is nice and the cash are 100% there and all that’s stopping me is the passphrase, is there a restrict to the variety of makes an attempt I can attempt to get the passphrase. Are there any reliable firm’s in Australia ideally that may brute drive the passphrase. The stability is excessive sufficient that I might in fact make it value whereas for anybody that is ready to assist me entry them. Sorry for the lengthy ramble however I’m fundamental with laptop expertise and I don’t perceive a variety of the options to points requested beforehand. Any assistance is appreciated
