"bitcoin-cli walletpassphrase" - Unlock Wallet

This section describes how to unlock with 'bitcoin-cli walletpassphrase' command.

After encrypting my wallet, let me try to dump private keys again.

C:\>\local\bitcoin-0.15.1\bin\bitcoin-cli -testnet 
   dumpprivkey mp6mKbgWE25PyyX63zJ8SRibrKugHMkJDE

error code: -13
error message:
Error: Please enter the wallet passphrase with walletpassphrase first.

Ok. Run the "walletpassphrase" command to unlock the wallet for 60 seconds.

C:\>\local\bitcoin-0.15.1\bin\bitcoin-cli -testnet
walletpassphrase xxxxxx 60

Dump the private key again.

C:\>\local\bitcoin-0.15.1\bin\bitcoin-cli -testnet 
   dumpprivkey mp6mKbgWE25PyyX63zJ8SRibrKugHMkJDE
