Request Parameters

• trusted: Numeric value representing the trusted balance (outputs created by the wallet or confirmed outputs).
• untrusted_pending: Numeric value representing the untrusted pending balance (outputs created by others that are in the mempool).
• immature: Numeric value representing the balance from immature coinbase outputs.
• used: Numeric value representing the balance from coins sent to addresses that were previously spent from (potentially privacy violating). This parameter is only present if avoid_reuse is set.

    "code": -18,
    "message": "Load a wallet using loadwallet or create a new one with createwallet. (Note: A default wallet is no longer automatically created)"
