================================================================ WALLET CHECK REPORT Date: 07/13/2026 20:27:52 WARNING: this file may contain private keys - store it safely. ================================================================ Wallet: wallet_252.dat ======================================================================== 1.

FAKE / FABRICATED WALLET DETECTION (scam markers) ======================================================================== Reference guide - how to tell a fake wallet.dat from a genuine one: * HEX Editor Inspection: open the file in a HEX editor (e.g. HxD) and search for known scammer template strings. If present, the file is almost certainly a fabricated fake distributed by scammers. * Bitcoin Core Import Test: if the wallet only shows watch-only addresses with no actual private keys stored, it is non-functional. * Transaction History Match: compare the tx count / history against a public block explorer; any mismatch indicates a tampered file. * RPC command dumpprivkey
: code -4 Private key ... is unknown -> key missing, likely fake. code -13 wallet encrypted -> normal for a genuine vault. * Address/File Structure: legacy wallets hold multiple separate keys; HD (BIP32) wallets use an xpriv seed and the file size typically stays static as new addresses are derived. Watch out for known fake lists circulating online with repetitive addresses / passwords. Automated checks performed by this script: [ok] No known scam marker strings found in the file. Whole-file Shannon entropy: 5.039 bits/byte (8.0 = maximal) [ok] No suspicious address-repetition pattern found. --- Real on-chain balance (block explorer lookup) --- Addresses found in wallet file: 1 Checking balances (this may take some time).
