[Technical Help] Extracting public addresses from a legacy BTC.com PDF backup (Password known)
Hello, I require technical guidance regarding a legacy BTC.com wallet recovery.
Current Situation:
- I possess the original PDF backup document provided by the defunct BTC.com wallet.
- I know the correct password for this backup.
- The wallet only received deposits from a mining pool; no outbound transactions (withdrawals) were ever made.
- I do not have access to the historical deposit records from the mining pool right now.
The Problem: I do not know the specific public address(es) holding the funds. Finding the exact funded address currently feels like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Is there a specific derivation path, script, or method to scan and locate the funded addresses using the data inside the PDF backup and the password?
