I'm trying to unlock my darkcoin wallet and I was wondering what encryption algorithm was used to encrypt the wallet.dat file when it was darkcoin and if that algorithm has changed since? Im trying to run a script of every possible combination of passwords I used back then. In other forums I have read that using openssl would decrypt it. But in my testing using the dashcore qt wallet, I could not unlock a brand new wallet.dat encrypted by the qt wallet using openssl with my known password.
openssl aes-256-cbc -d -in wallet_new_enc.dat -a -out wallet.dat
enter aes-256-cbc decryption password:
error reading input file
openssl aes-256-cbc -d -in wallet_new_enc.dat -out wallet.dat
enter aes-256-cbc decryption password:
bad magic number
Am I using the wrong algorithm? And if successful will it work on my old darkcoin wallet?
