How to Recover Wanchain Sent to Ethereum Address!
About a month ago I accidentally sent all my Wanchain from an exchange to my Etherum address! I was in distress and this seems to be a common concern for many people. But today I did it! I finally recovered all my Wanchain! It was not easy. I am a software engineer and it took a lot of my knowledge and a handy web tool to get them back. So without further ado here are the exact steps to recover your Wanchain: Part 1 - Get your Ethereum Keystore File *You can skip part 1 if you already have your Ethereum Keystore File From My MetaMask Option *If you use a MetaMask you must follow these steps AND the "From Private Key Option" steps below
Click on the MetaMask on the top-right of Chrome
Type in password to unlock
Click on the 3 dots next to your account's name
Click export private key
Type in your password again
Click submit
Copy your private key
From Mnemonic (TrezoLeger users do this first!) Option *If you use a TrezoLedgeHardware Wallet you will need to follow these steps AND the "From Private Key Option" steps below
It is HIGHLY recommended that you transfer ALL other funds from ALL other cryptos off of your hardware wallet before following these steps.
Run bip39-standalone.html from the unzipped folder
Type your 12-24 word Mnemonic given to you when you setup your Hardware Wallet into the BIP 39 Mnemonic input (If you don't have this you cannot recover your Wanchain)
If you setup a passphrase for your Hardware Wallet (not your PIN code but an actual password) type it into BIP 39 Passphrase (optional) input. (If you don't have this and set one up originally with your hardware wallet you cannot recover your Wanchain)
Change the "Coin" drop-down menu to Ethereum
Scroll to the very bottom of the page and you should now see your Ethereum public key and private key for your specific Ethereum address that you accidentally sent your Wanchain to under "Derived Addresses". *If you do NOT see your address here then you did NOT follow the steps correctly
Copy the private key on the right-hand side for your specific Etherem address that you accidentally sent your Wanchain to. This is under "Derived Addresses" Do NOT use any other private key on the page.
Unzip Geth to C:\Geth (or any directory you will remember)
Search for cmd (on Windows), Right-Click, Run As Administrator
Open Notepad
Paste your Ethereum private key into the notepad without any extra characters or quotations.
Make sure you don't have a "0x" at the beginning of the private key. If you do, delete the "0x" off the start of the private key and save the file.
Save the file as nothing_special_delete_me.txt at C:\Geth
Open a command prompt (windows)
Run the command: cd c:\Geth
Run the command: geth account import C:\Geth\nothing_special_delete_me.txt
After successful import, delete the file at C:\Geth\nothing_special_delete_me.txt
Your file will be saved at, replace "UserName" with your computer's actual logged in user name: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Ethereum\keystore
Part 2 - Recovering Your Wanchain And now what you've been waiting for. Follow these steps to recover your Wanchain from your Ethereum Keystore File. Part 2A - Setup a Wanchain Wallet with WanWalletGui *If you already have a Wanchain wallet setup and know your public key, private key, and password for that wallet you can skip Part 2A We need somewhere to send the Wanchain when we recover it. Follow these steps to setup an address to use on the Wanchain network. You cannot keep using the Ethereum address you sent your Wanchain to on accident after recovery. Just bear with me.
Click on the logo of your operating system to download the WanWalletGui
Accept the User Agreement
Unzip all the files
Run WanWalletGui.exe
Click Launch Application from the pop-up
Click the "Account" button on the top-right
Type in any account name you want and your new password twice
Click "OK"
Save the "Public Key" displayed for your account somewhere
Close the program. Make sure to actually close the program as it will interfere later on.
Part 2B - Get the Gwan Tool Up and Running This is Wanchain's version of Geth, it's called Gwan (get it, G"Wanchain"). You will need this to submit the recovery transaction since the WanWalletGui.exe can't submit it for us.
Open a command prompt (or equivalent if not on Windows)
Go to the directory that you unzipped Gwan to (cd command on Windows)
Run this command: gwan --rpc --rpcapi=web3,eth,personal --rpcport "8545" --rpcaddr "127.0.0.1" --rpccorsdomain "127.0.0.1"
Leave the command prompt up and running until all remaining steps in all parts are finished. If you close the command prompt you cannot submit the recovery transaction. This is actively listening on your computer.
Part 2C - Install Node *If you already have Node.Js & NPM installed AND updated you can skip Part 2C
Open another command prompt (or equivalent) and go to the unzipped directory
Type this command: npm install
You may get ERR's in red. That's fine, ignore them.
After the prior command completes leave the command prompt open and also open "config.js". Make all changes to the file after each line's colon. Leave quotes when you see them around the examples. You will need to edit the config.js file as follows:
Change the first line to: datadir : '/'
Change fromAddr to the Ethereum address you accidentally sent your wanchain to
Change the passphrase to the password you setup for your Ethereum Keystore File
Change the chainId to 0x01 (no quotes)
Change the toAddr to the new Wanchain address you setup in "Part 2A"
Change the sendAmount to be the amount of wanchain you want to transfer and then leave the * 1e18 at the end so 50 Wanchain = 50 * 1e18 (no quotes or spaces). Make sure to not transfer everything, leave .01 Wanchain for the transfer fee.
Save the file, it should now look something like this:
module.exports = { datadir : '/', // The datadir path of the Ethereum fromAddr : '0xaaa', // Ethereum address which hold the Wancoin passphrase : 'password', // The passphrase for the Ethereum keystore of the above address chainId : 0x01, // 0x01 - Wanchain Mainnet, 0x03 - Wanchain Testnet toAddr : '0xbbb', // Wanchain address, make sure have the correct Wanchain keystore for this address sendAmount : 1000*1e18, // 1000 Wan. Don't send all the wancoin, need to keep about 0.005 Wan as the tx fee gasPrice : 200*1e9, // 200 GWin gasLimit : 47000 }
Open your C:\ (or main directory)
Create a folder, name it "keystore"
Copy and paste your Ethereum Keystore File into this directory. You must put it in this EXACT location.
Go back to your command prompt that you last used to do the command "npm install"
Type this command: node index.js (if that doesn't work try: node index)
If all went well you should now see your TxHash of the completed transaction.
Wait 5-10 minutes
Close the command prompt running Gwan
Open WanWalletGui.exe
Your funds should now be displayed there!!
Conclusion If this helped you please consider sending some WAN to: 0xC0dF0c37966488941765f5659ff552aA4e0595B5

geth saves its internal states for the main network in the chaindata directory. You can find it in the directory: ~/.ethereum on linux ~/Library/Ethereum on OS X ~/AppData/Roaming/Ethereum; It uses the LevelDB database. You can save this directory only if geth is stopped to prevent corruptions. The data is portable on Linux, Windows and MacOS X (i have checked).
