Litecoin Wallet Recovery for Litecoin Core and Dogecoin Core

Litecoin wallet recovery works much like Bitcoin Core recovery, because Litecoin Core and Dogecoin Core both use the same wallet.dat format. If you have the file but forgot the passphrase, or the file is damaged, your coins are still on their blockchains. Copy the wallet.dat to a USB drive first, then follow the four steps below.

  • Litecoin Core
  • Dogecoin Core
  • No recovery, no fee
