Bitcoin Core 0.13.1 Released

[Icon]

So.. how does one go about exporting the "seed" out of this version, instead of saving each wallet.dat file, my understanding is that we can just save the seed to access all the wallets.dat/addresses from that  1 seed..

PS

I understand we need to make a new wallet using the 13.x version first..

Bitcoin Core does not support BIP 39 mnemonics yet (what people commonly refer to as seeds). You can however export the wallet in a human readable format (csv I believe) which will contain the master private key. Keep in mind that every time you change the password (add one or change it), the master private key will change.

"the password" you are referring to is the lock wallet phrase, correct?

Also i am assuming you can "import" the .csv back into bitcoin core to access the wallet..?

Sorry never messed with any signing/export/print private keys just always truecrypt the wallet.dat and stored


Thanks

No, you cannot. The wallet export isn't really for backing up the wallet, rather it is for your own information or if you want to import your Bitcoin Core wallet into another wallet. Right now you cannot restore a Bitcoin Core wallet from the master private key. You need to have the wallet.dat file. The big difference between this and the old versions is that you don't need to backup the wallet.dat every 100 transactions, you only need to do it every time you change the password, which probably isn't very frequent.

Wow! that is fantastic for those people who are comfortable with their languages, it will more easy for them manipulate their coins.

A multilingual program can earn more client

I hope that there is also version on the Philippines

Nonexistent. There is no hard fork of segwit.

Old news. AVs have constantly been flagging Bitcoin Core as a virus. Just check the hashes and signatures to verify your install is legit and then add it to your AVs exception list.

That text ... "not a virus", "bitcoin miner".

You can't do that yet. The HD wallets created by this version just allow you to backup the wallet.dat file once (you will have to backup every time you change the password) and not have to do it every 100 transactions.

I can smell a new update
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/releases
0.13.2 rc1 is out

[o_solo_miner]

Is there a manual or tutorial on how to compile that on linux
and what toolchain/dependencies are needet?

I don't want to use a prebuild binary on my server.

I got trouble on compiling it on debian64.

Thank you for pointing that, I was not aware that now there is a bit more as
it was one month before.
I will try it again and report.

Small question not worth to start a new thread:


System: OS X El Capitan 10.11.6
Wallet: Bitcoin Core 13.1

I have a backup of my wallet.dat file. Where do I move it if I want to restore it?

On internet I found that it should be moved to ˜\Library\Application Support\Bitcoin\
But I guess that is outdated information, because that folder does not exist on my computer, neither with hidden files shown.

Also, I wonder, can I use this same file to restore a wallet on a windows PC?

You put it in the data directory. If you changed it (i.e. chose a different folder with the initial startup dialog which asked you if you wanted to), then you put it in the folder that you specified. Otherwise, it should go in the default data directory which is the path you mentioned.

Also, I wonder, can I use this same file to restore a wallet on a windows PC?

Yes.
