How I Lost My Blackbytes

My MacBook SSD died for no reason last Friday.

I had a full backup saved in the cloud. Problem is, my backup was taken when the DAG was only 3 MB, ie immediately after the 1st distribution of Bytes. Therefore my backup was taken *before* the subsequent Blackbyte distributions. I cannot restore my blackbytes from a backup which was taken *before* I received the blackbytes.

It was never stated directly and I think most people are not aware of the following regarding full backups and Blackbytes.

  • To be safe you should do a full backup every time you receive Blackbytes.
  • Your old backup will not help you restore the *newer* blackbytes in your wallet in case of data loss.
  • The current size of a full backup is 500 MB (compressed) and growing constantly.

It was stated multiple times in this thread that you need a full backup after every transaction to keep your blackbytes safe, which is inconvenient, therefore more practical backup solution is multi-signature wallet.

Where was it stated?

I was using multi-sig but ran into a bug which was locking up my wallet, preventing me from doing anything. So I went back to a single wallet.

    I Lost My Blackbytes

    There is an option to re-send private payloads i.e. resend blackbytes, I don't know if this can work in your case, however it might be worth the shot to contact Tony and ask if he can resend them (if they can be recovered this way).

    Cool I will ask or hopefully he will see this...

    As for the size of a full backup, are full backups now possible with the light wallet? I would have sworn I was told by tonych that light wallets couldn't do a full restore.

    Yes they are possible, you can find the full backup option under the device's settings. He may have told you that when it wasn't available, this feature is available since version 1.4.0 which is a-bit-more-than-a-month old.

    Make sure you have finished linking all your bitcoin and byteball addresses, before the snapshot starts on April 11.
