## Claiming Funds From Old Hush Wallets
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hush migrated to a new mainnet after Block 500,000 on the old Hush blockchain.
|
|
|
|
|
Funds in addresses as of Block 500,000 were transported to our new chain. About
|
|
|
|
|
31,000 addresses with at least 0.00000001 HUSH were transported to the new Hush
|
|
|
|
|
mainnet.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To claim funds on the new chain, there are few options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Funds on exchanges
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Firstly, no bueno! Not your keys, not your coins. It's best not to store coins
|
|
|
|
|
on exchanges. But in this case, you lucked out! There is nothing to do to claim
|
|
|
|
|
new coins if you have coins on an exchange that supports the new Hush chain.
|
|
|
|
|
The exchange will follow the instructions from the next section and you will
|
|
|
|
|
magically have funds on the new chain. Note that old Hush addresses started
|
|
|
|
|
with `t1` and now they begin with `R`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To see what an old HUSH v2 address looks like on the new chain, this online tool
|
|
|
|
|
can be used: https://dexstats.info/addressconverter.php
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or this command line tool: https://git.hush.is/hush/hush3/src/master/contrib/convert_address.py
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Using an old wallet.dat
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Backup your old HUSH wallet.dat, and backup any current wallet.dat that is in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
~/.komodo/HUSH3/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OR
|
|
|
|
|
~/.hush/HUSH3/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is no way to lose funds, as long as you have backups!!! Make sure
|
|
|
|
|
to make backups. Do not skip this step.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Make sure any/all GUI wallets are stopped! Also make sure your old Hush node
|
|
|
|
|
and new Hush3 node are stopped:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cd hush3
|
|
|
|
|
./src/hush-cli stop
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Do not copy wallets or move wallets while your full node is running! This could
|
|
|
|
|
corrupt your wallet!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now copy your old Hush wallet.dat to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
~/.hush/HUSH3/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with a command like
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# DO NOT RUN THIS WITHOUT MAKING BACKUPS!
|
|
|
|
|
cp ~/.hush/wallet.dat ~/.hush/HUSH3/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The reason this works is that both old HUSH and new HUSH are still Bitcoin Protocol
|
|
|
|
|
coins, which both use secp256k1 public keys. Now start your HUSH3 node again,
|
|
|
|
|
with this special CLI argument that will clear out transactions from your wallet:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cd hush3
|
|
|
|
|
./src/hushd -zapwallettxes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will cause a full history rescan, which will take some time. Once it's complete,
|
|
|
|
|
you can see your funds with this command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./src/hush-cli getwalletinfo
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Do not use this wallet except to send funds to a new wallet!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Private Keys
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also transport funds one address at a time via private keys.
