Title: Backing Up wallet.dat Post by: move_zig on March 07, 2013, 01:07:52 AM I'm running bitcoin-qt 0.8. My wallet has a passphrase. If I create a backup from within the application, will the wallet.dat be encrypted with the same passphrase?
If I cat the wallet.dat I get binary output. I think that means it's encrypted. Title: Re: Backing Up wallet.dat Post by: Nicolai on March 07, 2013, 01:15:31 AM "binary output" != encryption.
But yes, if you use the "encrypt wallet" feature, then the wallet(.dat)-file will be encryptet with the same passphrase :-) |
