Yes. Does your client have a HD symbol on the lower right? If so, then it would definitely be good to just have it backedup once.
Well... it does have "HD" but it has a line through it. I didn't think it had the line through it, though. |

but still note down your private keys and keep them in a safe
How exactly? I'm not sure how I would find them. To do this in Bitcoin Core, you'd need to open the debug console, unlock your wallet with the walletpassphrase command, then use the dumpprivkey command on every address in your wallet that contains coins. This is a laborious process, and it's much easier to simply back up your wallet.dat file (hopefully you encrypted it with a password that you won't forget) which contains the deterministic key for your wallet, meaning if you back up that file, you won't need to replace it with a new version every time you receive coins. Perfect! Thank you! One more question... So if I backup the wallet.dat tonight and disassemble my PC, but I receive some bitcoin in the next few weeks. When I re-install my core client, restore the wallet, and re-sync to the network... will the newly sent BTC be there? I guess what I'm asking is... 1. Does the wallet.dat file itself contain the bitcoin? or... 2. Does the blockchain technically contain my bitcoin and the wallet.dat file is simply the "key" to access the "safe-deposit box?" I assume the core client will process the blockchain and then see that I'm supposed to have x amount of bitcoin, so it then "arrives?" |

Hi everyone!
So I run the Bitcoin Core full node software on my PC and keep my btc there. My PC has a 512gb SSD (c:\) as my main drive and a 2TB backup hard drive (d:\), which is where my Bitcoin Core program stores everything. The 2TB drive is about 4 years old and is almost full - I'm about to replace it with a 4tb hard drive and need to backup everything.
What's the best way to achieve this? I remember my pass phrase but I don't remember writing down any keys or words, or anything like that. it's been years since I originally installed it.

You guys are ridiculous, you know that? Bitcoin isn't a currency anymore - it's almost not even a store of value. It's mania. Everything that Bitcoin used to be is no longer.
1. Free to send to anybody and anywhere
false - outrageously expensive now to send Bitcoin to anybody. It is now cheaper to use banks, western union, and paypal.
2. Send money instantly, whereas banks and other institutions take days
false - I sold something on eBay, received the money in my paypal account, and then transferred it into my checking account *BEFORE* my son received the bitcoin I sent him for his birthday days earlier.
3. It's decentralized
false - A group of programmers decide how the "currency" operates and is distributed, making everybody else use a slow and expensive system simply because they don't want to change. At least in my country's government, I voted for the sons-of-bitches.
4. It's anonymous!
false - it's definitely not. Ask Ross Ulbricht (if you can get him to add you to his prison visitors list)

The GPU Gold Pool for Bitcoin Gold has suspended mining. Official Statement...
"Due to issues with the block chain we are suspending mining till things get sorted out.
Until we feel confident that the Bitcoin Gold System is working we are suspending mining for now.
All our current blocks mined where orphaned blocks."

I'm only ever connected to 1 peer at a time. is that normal? :/
|
|
|
|
IF you are using ubuntu. The the command is:
bgold-cli addnode "50.244.237.121:8338" add
i had connected with 3 node and waiting more.
Sync to block 30000 with 30 minutes. It is really slow.
I'm using the Windows version - the debug window |
|

May someone provide some nodes please?
I tried the mentioned
addnode=78.193.221.106:8338
but can't connect, probably because the number of connections is limited.
The result of getpeerinfo would be great.
Thanks
Nodes are listed at http://btgblocks.com/networkI can't add nodes to my Bitcoin Gold Core. I go to the command line and use the addnode command with different nodes from the website, but I always get back "Method Not Found (code -32601)" This is ridiculous! |

I just hope I did the wallet thing correctly. I'm using the wallet address from the Bitcoin Gold Core client on my PC... that's good, yes?

After a long wait, we are finally about to start... I will mine at suprnova, hope it will start on time right after 8000 premined blocks  I can't even get to their website right now |

I've got my Bitcoin Gold Core client running, but it hasn't started downloading the blockchain yet... it's just sitting there.
|
|
|
|
|
I've got BTG Core open and it says there's 1 active connection... but it's not downloading anything *shrug*
I'll be mining at us.gpugold.com
Yes, seems like everybody else is still on testnet or something

So I run a full Bitcoin node and want to also run a full Bitcoin Gold node. Should I just copy the full Bitcoin blockchain from it's directory into the director I plan to have the Bitcoin Gold Core program in? I figured it'd be a lot quicker than having to download the whole thing again. Please let me know if I have this right.

So after the S9s are shipped and running, Republicans will now finally be able to believe in Global Warming, eh? Will these replace central heating systems in homes across the planet? I can't imagine the kind of heat these things will put off. Also, do they come with a complimentary set of earplugs?

We havent seen proof of that yet in our logs for this round. They have been throwing up good shares, just not good enough.
Cool... that's good enough for me! |
