Bitcoin Core v.23 import personal key query
Hey.
I’ve a personal key which I’ve imported (importprivkey in console) into bitcoin core v.0.17.1. Stability for instance 1 bitcoin
-
Made a transaction of 0.1 bitcoin to a P2PKH handle. The remaining is 0.9 bitcoins.
-
Eliminated bitcoin core v.0.17.1 and pockets.dat
-
Put in bitcoin core v.23.0
-
Imported the personal key. Stability 0 bitcoins.
-
There are 2 transactions:
0.1 bitcoin (transaction)
0.9 bitcoin (I feel that is change, despatched to bech32 beginning bc1…)
Do I perceive accurately that I misplaced my bitcoins, which had been despatched as change to the bech32 handle, or bech32 addresses are generated from one personal key and the change went to that handle? Is it doable to revive them?

Sadly, sure – the management over the 0.9 btc has been misplaced most likely. It appears that evidently the personal key to the change 0.9 btc handle has been misplaced by the deletion of the pockets.dat that saved it. It’s virtually not possible to revive the personal key. A change personal key shouldn’t be derived (deterministacally generated) from an imported personal key in keeping with “https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?matter=5190841.0”. It may be verified (by reproducing the state of affairs in Testnet). Knowledge restoration might come to rescue – the pockets.dat might haven’t been deleted unrecoverably altough it is a lengthy shot.
The design of Bitcoin Core appears to commerce off security of funds (danger of loss) towards pseudoanonimity-by-defalult in that case. It is a identified difficulty.
