Title: Donated AGS from KryptoKit.
Post by: etherbroker on March 05, 2014, 03:41:02 am

 :'(  It doesn't let me have the private key.  The support didn't answer my email 'would I ever be able to export the wallet'

How screwed am I?  Can I export a Krypto-Kit wallet?  Can I hijack my own broswer?  I think the private key is encrypted.  :'(

Go to "Wallet options" click "export brainwallet"
copy the passphrase in the red field
Disable internet (for more safety)
Go to http://brainwallet.org/
paste in passphrase
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand your done

edit: I would reccomend you don't use KryptoKit (or at least don't store too much on it)
because one time i turned off my PC and Chrome wasn't closed before and all my Add-on's where deleted
(maybe there is a backup copy somewhere but i doubt it )

OH WOW, that's a relief.

I have everything backed up, you can back up KryptoKit, I used it on a whim, its not good for this kind of thing

Maybe for spending a few milibits here and there



Thanks for you help, I will probably still need help again when it is time to export it to Bitshares wallet...  If that is possible, but I take this as a good sign that I will be OK

You can just import the private key to a Qt-Wallet or a blockchain.info wallet
And when Bitshares are available just import the wallet.dat

Thank you jabba,
at one time I did believe my donation was gone forever.

I haven't responded to this thread, but I have now made the time to do what you suggested and it worked flawlessly.  I have my wallet under my control with blockchain.info now.   8)

Although I will say I still don't know how to get a wallet.dat out of blockchain.info

but they have plenty of export methods, so I'm sure it will be fine and it was already listed an acceptable wallet to donate from
