One of my machines will only run v11.2 another will run the most recent version.
If I use a USB drive to store blockchain data from whichever machine I am running (never both at the same time) into the one blockchain folder, will there be a problem?

Thanks
Mike

The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

I don't think this should be a problem.
You'd probably hae to copy the wallet.dat file to the correct location each time (but that could be done with a simple batch file).
I have 0.11.2 and 0.13.2 on my computer (both have access to the same wallet.dat file and no errors seem to have been encountered so far)...
