Can you import on armory for wallets from qt ? Title: Re: Latest Bootstrap.dat Post by: bitpop on December 14, 2014, 11:47:09 PM No you can sweep private keys though. Armory is hd, much easier backups

Armory is hd, much easier backups Any configurations needed to get connected on it as seems not connecting up to dl data on it but seeing on it requires to download blockchain so what's the point to having this compared to using QT Title: Re: Latest Bootstrap.dat Post by: bitpop on December 15, 2014, 12:22:41 AM No you can sweep private keys though.

It's much more advanced, I love it. Hd too so no need to refresh backups. Handles multiple wallets, etc. Title: Re: Latest Bootstrap.dat Post by: APETHEMES on December 15, 2014, 06:30:18 AM Thanks for help
