Hey, I have some old old ECCoins in an old old ECCoin wallet. Is there a way to convert these to the new coin? I'm on the Qt version 4.8.5 and ECCoin version 1.6.0.0 from years ago.
there is no new coin or version 4.8.5
if you update your wallet and sync up, you will be on the right chain and see your coins again
the current wallet version is 2.4.7.6 and the download links are on the first post (or the post above yours). where did you get a version 4.8.5 wallet from?
I think he means QT version 4.8.5.
1. Find in the appdata folder from your computer the map ECCoin. In that map there is a file named wallet.dat. Copy that file and save it on a secure place.
2. Download the newest wallet and totally sync it. (will take some time, be patient).
3. When totally synced.... close the wallet.
4. Find in the appdata folder from your computer the map ECCoin. In that map there is a file named wallet.dat.
Replace that file with the wallet.dat that you saved on a secure place. Confirm if you are asked to replace the file.
5. Start the new wallet. If the coins don't appear then do a "repairwallet" in the console from the Eccoin-wallet.
