Using Bitcoin Core from today (almost 0.21):
I ran ./configure
. It said with sqlite = yes
. ldd $(which bitcoind)
shows it is linked to libsqlite3.so
.
Now, I started a signet node using bitcoind -signet
. It has synced.
Now I want to create a descriptor wallet. So I tried looking in the man bitcoin-wallet
, but it doesn't mention it.
I tried bitcoin-cli help
and it lists:
createwallet "wallet_name" ( disable_private_keys blank "passphrase" avoid_reuse descriptors load_on_startup )
I tried:
$ bitcoin-cli -signet createwallet default_wallet -descriptors
error: Error parsing JSON: -descriptors
$ bitcoin-cli -signet -descriptors createwallet default_wallet
Error parsing command line arguments: Invalid parameter -descriptors
How do I create a descriptor wallet?
descriptors
is not a command-line option tobitcoin-cli
, it's a boolean argument to the "createwallet" RPC. It should be "true" or "false.
