in future i'm not letting bitcoin core handle my wallet... btcd design was correct, keep it separated... i'll instal bitcoind, and find a wallet that uses bip39 and stores nothing on disk and have the word key on paper in a couple of secure places and that's how i'm going to unlock my master key and access my coins i just sat through a full 24 hours watching paint dry only to learn that all of this effort and energy i'm expending to do this is a waste of time because i already have the damn wallet, i just need the chain, and then i can bump it to another address whatever and fuck bitcoin core fuck bitcoin core i hate bitcoin core i hate peter todd, i bet this was all his idea
