MyTonCtrl wallet commands
Wallet mode provides convenience utilities for generating, activating, importing, exporting, and moving funds between TON wallets managed by MyTonCtrl. The commands below explain required arguments, accepted shortcuts (such asall
/alld
amounts), and safety prompts.
Operational notes
- MyTonCtrl stores wallets under
/var/ton-work/wallets
. Back up.pk
files securely before deleting or migrating wallets. - Generated wallet names follow the
wallet_###
pattern. Usewl
to find the correct name before funding or exporting. - Bookmark support depends on entries configured via other modules (for example, utility commands that register shortcuts).
- Transfers rely on the validator console and may require the wallet to be active with sufficient rent balance (>0.1 TON).
Wallet lifecycle
nw
Purpose: Create a new local wallet definition and show its deployment address.
Syntax
- With no arguments, autogenerates a name (
wallet_XXX
), uses workchain0
, selects versionv1
, and derives subwallet698983191 + workchain
. - When arguments are provided, you must supply the workchain and name; optional
version
(v1
,v2
,v3
) andsubwallet
override defaults. - Writes
.addr
/.pk
files under the wallets directory and prints a table with the new wallet address (state-init form).
aw
Purpose: Deploy one wallet or all wallets that have unsigned deployment BoCs.
Syntax
- Without arguments, treats the request as
all
and scans every wallet for pending deployment BoCs, sending them if the target address still has a positive balance. - With a wallet name, activates that specific wallet using the stored deployment message.
wl
Purpose: List every wallet known to MyTonCtrl along with its on-chain status.
Syntax
- Prints Name, Status, Balance, Version, Workchain, and Address (current or init address if inactive).
- Useful for auditing balances before elections or sweeping idle funds.
dw
Purpose: Delete a wallet’s local files after operator confirmation.
Syntax
- Prompts
Are you sure you want to delete this wallet (yes/no):
and only proceeds onyes
. - Removes the
.addr
,.pk
, and cached query files for<wallet-name>
but does not touch on-chain accounts.
Importing, exporting, and metadata
iw
Purpose: Import an existing wallet by address and secret key.
Syntax
- Writes the provided address bytes and base64-encoded private key into a new local wallet (name auto-generated).
- Prints the assigned wallet name for subsequent commands.
ew
Purpose: Export a wallet’s address and secret key.
Syntax
- Reads the
.pk
file, base64-encodes it, and prints the address/key pair along with the wallet name. - Useful for backups or migration to hardware wallets.
swv
Purpose: Update the recorded wallet version (v1/v2/v3) for an imported wallet.
Syntax
- Updates metadata so MyTonCtrl selects the correct Fift script when sending transactions.
- Supply the wallet address exactly as stored (base64 or workchain:hex) and the version string.
Fund transfers
mg
Purpose: Send Toncoin from a local wallet to a destination address or bookmark.
Syntax
<amount>
accepts numeric TON values or the shortcutsall
(sends balance minus fees) andalld
(sends entire balance, including fees).- Automatically checks the source balance, destination bounceability, and wallet version. Add
-n
to force non-bounceable mode or other validator-console flags as needed. - Submits the signed transfer via the validator console; prints
MoveCoins - OK
on success.
mgtp
Purpose: Relay a payment through two temporary proxy wallets before reaching the destination.
Syntax
- Creates two temporary wallets, hops the transfer through them (
wallet -> proxy1 -> proxy2 -> destination
) and cleans up afterwards. - Ensures the final leg includes
-n
(non-bounceable) to safely reach inactive recipients. - Handy when the destination cannot accept a direct bounceable transfer.
