Title: System change from 32 bit to 64 bit Post by: yabit on April 16, 2015, 09:18:29 AM I have the full bitcoin blockchain on my 32 bit computer and will migrate to 64 bit. Can I copy the full bitcoin data directory (blockchain, wallet.. ) to my new 64 bit system into the 64 bit bitcoin client? Is is the same format ?
Thanks for help !! Title: Re: System change from 32 bit to 64 bit Post by: shorena on April 16, 2015, 10:19:38 AM I have the full bitcoin blockchain on my 32 bit computer and will migrate to 64 bit.
