Hi guys.
I wonder if you can help me. I have turned my old laptop and found out that i have got 5 Bitcoins back in 2010. I have scribbled a privkey and address. Now i have tried to download Bitcoin core wallet to get my coins to action, but for some reason i do not see my coins there. But i can clearly see them in the block explorer. Is it something to do with the fact that i got them before core wallets came in? I can't clearly remember what i did to get these coins back then as it was 13 year ago. Could you help me to figure this out?
The block explorer say:
This address has transacted 7 times on the Bitcoin blockchain. It has received a total of x.xxx BTC $xxx and has sent a total of 0.00000000 BTC $0.00 The current value of this address is x.xxx
It also show that it has a total of 7 transactions in and none of them out. First transaction made in 2010 and others in 2019-2022. When i sync bitcoin full node wallet, i can only see those 6 transactions that happened in 2019-2022, but not the one that has been in 2010
Sorry for i don't disclose the balance and wallet address as it is pure for security reasons.
