Title: Does loading "testnet" overwrite my "regular" bitcoin wallet.dat file? Post by: gigabytecoin on June 26, 2011, 11:43:28 PM Or are both blockchains kept in the same file, I wonder?
I have run both blockchains from an ubuntu install and only see a single wallet.dat file in my /.bitcoin folder. Title: Re: Does loading "testnet" overwrite my "regular" bitcoin wallet.dat file? Post by: hamdi on June 26, 2011, 11:52:22 PM should start a new wallet and overwrite the old one

The testnet data is in a subdirectory, cleverly disguised under the name "testnet". ;)I have run both blockchains from an ubuntu install and only see a single wallet.dat file in my /.bitcoin folder.

Interesting! Sooo, if my "hidden" bitcoin folder on ubuntu is found in /home/ubuntu/.bitcoin/ Then my testnet folder would be found where exactly?

Testnet folder is located inside the .bitcoin folder (and is not hidden). |
