I have a wallet file from 2011 back when I used to play around with Bitcoin.
I used an old version of Multibit which has since long been unavailable.
My wallet looks like this:
# KEEP YOUR PRIVATE KEYS SAFE !
# Anyone who can read this file can spend your bitcoin.
#
# Format:
# <Base58 encoded private key>[<whitespace>[<key createdAt>]]
#
# The Base58 encoded private keys are the same format as
# produced by the Satoshi client/ sipa dumpprivkey utility.
#
# Key createdAt is in UTC format as specified by ISO 8601
# e.g: 2011-12-31T16:42:00Z . The century, 'T' and 'Z' are mandatory
#
U2FsdGVXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXsnQhpZ6
2013-10-30T20:52:01Z
# End of private keys
I managed to get a version of Multibit HD from the web archive but this doesn’t support this wallet.
I also tried using OpenSSL with the following command:
openssl enc -d -p -aes-256-cbc -md md5 -a -in C:\key\wallet.key.txt -out c:\key\wallet-decrypted.key.txt
This output a file which wasn’t correct and gave a bad decrypt error. I know the password for this file.
Does anyone know the correct method of decrypting this?
UPDATE: While I’m at it, I found a whole bunch more .key files. This one has a different format:
org.bitcoin.productionm!œ;€ò=°´zXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXÌñ9,o( 2D
䢦]5+¡XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXE}Û@nŸé(2
