I have just tried installing Bitcoin Core recently as I was told its more secure than other online wallets, but i need some help regarding the following:-
- where to set the secret phrase
Do you mean your password? Or seed?- where to set the secret phrase
Bitcoin Core doesn't have a seed. You'll need to back up your wallet.dat file.
For password, go to Settings -> Encrypt wallet.
- how to know my private key
How to export your private key (ignore the importing to Omniwallet part) - My receiving address is it the same or does it change
It changes every new transaction.- if my machine crashes how do i restore my funds (i know they are stored on the blockchain but how to have access to it with BTC Core??)
- what files do i need to backup and how to RESTORE it on a different PC or after PC reformat/crash ??...
