Why not use unix "copy" command and then overwrite "wallet.dat" ?
Because not everyone uses Linux/Unix terminal and the guide mention how to backup wallet from
bitcoin-cliIs there anything wrong with this approach ?
AFAIK no, perhaps only permission to copy file with
copy/
cp command
Thank you for the quick response !
I am happy to hear your experience.
I have one more question about backup "wallet.dat".
I am running a full node bitcoin server.
And I hope to backup "wallet.dat" every day by using cron which kicks shell scripts.
In this shell script, using "backupwallet" command is better than "copy" command ?
There are hundreds of both singlesig addresses and multisig address in this "wallet.dat".
Is it true that using wallet.dat command takes much time than using copy command ?
Which do you recommend for backup ?
