Migrate a 32-bit Gen 2 Energi Core Wallet

info

If you have a 32-bit Windows computer running the Gen 2 Energi Core Wallet, please use this guide to migrate your Gen 2 NRG to Gen 3 NRG.

Success

All others, use Energi Core Wallet v2.4.1 to migrate their wallets. For more information look at the document below: Migrate from [Gen 2] Energi Core Wallet

1. Extract Wallet Data from Energi Gen 2

First extract the entire Gen 2 Energi Core Wallet using the dumpwallet command. It will dump all private keys associated with the wallet into a file.

danger

Safeguard the dump file as there is no password or encryption on the data. If anyone gets access to this file before you complete the migration, they will be able to claim all your funds. Once the migration is successfully completed, delete the dump file.

Start Gen 2 Energi Core Wallet on your Windows PC. The Core Wallet does not need to completely sync with Gen 2 Energi blockchain. If you see the following screen, press Hide to continue

Go to Settings -> Unlock Wallet...

unlock-wallet

An Unlock wallet pop up will appear. Enter your wallet passphrase and click Ok. The core wallet will stay unlocked until you exit the application or lock it again.

Next, open Tools -> Debug console:

debug-console-pulldown

In the Debug console, type dumpwallet:

otsc1

The first time you enter dumpwallet, it will provide a One Time Security Code (OTSC). The OTSC changes every time you run the dumpwallet command.

Now run the following command. Replace OTSC with the number you were presented when you ran dumpwallet.

dumpwallet c:/energi3/energi2_wallet.dump OTSC

dumpwallet

A pop up Energi Core - SCAM ALERT screen will appear. Type the text (I will not give the result to anyone!) in the box and press Ok.

scam-alert

This will create the dump of your Gen 2 Energi Core Wallet. The file will be saved in C:\energi3 directory. You will see a null output on the Debug console like below. This is normal.

extract-successful

Using File Explorer locate the dump file created in the last step. The file will have the following name (a _this_is_your_wallet.txt is tagged to the dump file) :

energi2_wallet.dump_this_is_your_wallet.txt

On the Mac, use the following command on the debug console:

dumpwallet "/Users/USERNAME/Desktop/energi2_wallet.dump" OTSC

You have to include the double quotes. Replace USERNAME with your account name on the Mac.

rename-dump

Rename the file to energi2_wallet.dump

Stop the Gen 2 Energi Core Wallet on the Windows PC.
