I just burned a lof of ESP1 by sending them to a ESP2 address!!!!
Tried importing the privkey from the ESP2 wallet to the ESP1 wallet but it says "invalid key".
The two addresses should REALLY have been incompatible! Or if they are, so should the private keys!!!
The privkey has different prefix (old: 161, new: 144).
Try this steps:
1. open
http://www.universalwalletgenerator.net/ (or save the source+offline vm, etc.)
2. Setup:
Presets currency: Custom
Public address network version: 33
Private key prefix: 161
3. At "Wallet Details" tag, enter the privkey, and store somewhere the "Private Key Hexadecimal Format" value. (64 char)
4. Go setup again, and change the private key prefix to 144.
5. Back to "Wallet Details", enter the stored hex privkey, you get the right compressed privkey.
thanks very much mate!
unfortunately it doesn't seem to work: the settings are lost when I move to the "wallet details" tab.
tried both chrome and firefox.
EDIT: nevermind, I swapped 144 with 161 in your instructions and it worked ;-)
EDIT2: it accepted the key but added a different address, so no coins :-(
