RE: Gridcoin Research Wallet Tips and Tricks for New Users

in #gridcoin7 years ago

So you are telling me i can have the same wallet running simultaniously on two computers?

In general for passwords i recommend keepass. you choose a strong masterpassword that you remember and never write down anywhere and afterwards keepass can generate strong passwords for you, for example for your wallet. Also it got no cloud bullshit like some other products tend to have (you can still just store the encrypted keepass file in your cloud and let it sync, but it's not decrypted in the cloud)

Sort:  

Yes, thats right. I stake/mine 24/7 on my raspberry pi (command line only), but when I want to do other activities like voting I do it from a windows wallet on my PC. If you do this though its really important as the article says to keep the wallet.dat files synchronised, or you WILL lose coins.

Yes, you can have two computers using the same wallet.dat file. However, you should NOT stake with both wallets at the same time. And as said in the post, your wallets will not know about addresses created by the other wallet. If you receive change on an expense for example, only the wallet that made it will know about it.

I accidentally tried it said something like its already open etc
