Hello,
I'd also like to know about securing my ALQO.
I've set up a MN (using your great hosting service) and I've encrypted the wallet, am I now able to delete the wallet.dat file after backing it up so I can offline the wallet?

Also while I haven't had any payments yet because it's only been 12 hours, the 'status' field says missing, and I can't see my node when I check 'all nodes' on a different machine. Is this abnormal?
edit: nevermind, I started the alias again and it showed up, not sure why it stopped.

Can I ask how you encrypted it?
And further to this point, are the automatic wallet.dat backups also then encrypted? If not it would seem necessary to somehow disable automatic backups right?

How can I safely encrypt my wallet.dat file? The ALQO wallet seems to be able to encrypt private keys but I'm not sure how to encrypt the actual backup wallet.dat files. I want to make sure everything is secure and atm have abunch of backups that seem very susceptible to theft!
Thanks in advance!

P.S. Awesome wallpaper!

How should I go about making a back up in the unfortunate event that my computer has a hardware failure? I have a masternode running 24/7 atm and would like to be able to rest easy knowing it's safe if my computer packs it in. Do I use the Bip38 tool? Or will the backup.dat files be enough to recover my ALQO? This is my first masternode and I am not very tech savvy so I apologise in advance if this is a stupid question. Thanks!

Also, loving ALQO btw! great payouts, super stable and great community with organic growth. Keep up the great work!

Simply export your private key and store it safely

Thanks for your quick response, where exactly can I find it in the wallet? Or is there a command I can use in debug console?
FYI the 'Settings > Encrypt Wallet' is unresponsive, not sure if that means its already encrypted and I need to decrypt it first somehow.

EDIT: e.g. something like this?:

To export a private key from your Bitcoin-Qt / Bitcoin Core client:

Launch your Bitcoin client
Click on 'help' in the menu bar (top right)
Click on 'debug window'
Select the 'console' tab
If your wallet is protected by a passphrase (i.e. you have to enter a passphrase before you can send) unlock it by typing
walletpassphrase "your walletpassphrase here" 600
dumpprivkey [your Bitcoin address here]
This will return the private key which will start with the number 5
