Ethereum: How to get Master Private key in electrum wallet

Before we dive into the steps, let’s quickly explain what a Master Private Key (MPK) is. A Master Private Key is the primary private key for an Ethereum wallet and is used to sign transactions on the Ethereum network. It is similar to your regular Private Key, but is more secure because it has higher entropy (randomness) which makes it harder to guess.

Step 1: Make sure you have Electrum installed

Make sure you have the Electrum wallet installed on your device. You can download it from the official website [ If you haven’t already, create a new wallet by clicking “New Wallet” and following the instructions.

Step 2: Log in to Electrum

Open Electrum and log in with your Ethereum address. This will give you access to your wallet settings and interface.

Step 3: Go to Settings or Options (depending on your version of Electrum)

In the top right corner of the Electrum window, you will see a menu with several options. Click “Settings” if you are using an older version of Electrum or “Options” if you are using a newer version.

For both versions:

  • General Settings: Scroll down to find your Master Private Key.
  • Network Settings: Find the section for the network you are using (e.g. Mainnet, Testnet).

Step 4: Find your Master Private Key

In the General Settings or Network Settings sections, look for a field labeled “Master Private Key” or “MPK”. This field usually contains your Master Private Key.

A few possible locations:

  • General Settings: In some versions of Electrum, you may find your MPK in the “Advanced” settings section.
  • Network Settings: In newer versions of Electrum, you can find your MPK in “Network” or “Settings”.

Important Notes:

  • Your Master Private Key is not publicly accessible. You should keep it safe and not share it with anyone.
  • If you lose access to your Electrum wallet or encounter any issues while trying to recover your Master Private Key, please contact our support team for assistance.

Once you have located your Master Private Key, make sure to store it safely to protect your Ethereum assets.

That’s it! By following these steps, you should be able to locate and recover your Master Private Key from Electrum.
