DeepOnion Guide: Wallet & Private Keys Backup

in #guide7 years ago (edited)

If you're involved in Deep Onion Coins this video guide will show you how to backup your wallet.dat file, and your private keys.

I recommend doing this after receiving more than a few coins. Keep it regular, keep yourself safe!

Please make sure that after you've backed up your wallet .dat file, and your private keys that you save them somewhere safe - Not on your desktop as I did in the video. I recommend buying 2 cheap 2 or 3gb jump drives and back up your keys/wallets to it. Make a copy and save is somewhere safe - hence why I say grab 2. That way, if one either a) goes missing or b) becomes corrupt, you always have a backup of the backup.

Anyways, here is the video;

Thanks dear! its very very helpful! your amazing keep it up!

Thanks themonkii!
Very informative. Why do not you use Bandicam?

Very cool guide. I would just add that the backups belong on a cloud sync'd location, like Apple's or Google's servers. The dumpprivkey command is very useful. I wish it was just stated in one of the forums ;)
