Cant anyone help me understand the Devcoin wallet? How does one get it back if their computer fails them? When I created a wallet here
http://devcoin.org/devcoin-wallet.html it never gave me the ability to create a passphrase or password or even if this is the public or private wallet. I have been searching for devcoin useability but it seems like its pretty technical and not as easy as other coins. Been on devtome.com as well and kind of hard to find anything there as well. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hi
orimar.
You can find a great HOWTO about the DevCoin wallet from a post of
cpol a while ago. Here is the link:
https://steemit.com/busy/@cpol/how-to-compile-your-very-own-devcoin-wallet-in-ubuntu-18-04Just like a BTC wallet you would want to backup wallet.dat which is normally in a hidden folder in the home directory. On Linux it would be .devcoin
Hope that helps.

Thanks! this seems to be for Linux OS? I have a mac OS and I can't seem to find anything online as to help me with it. I have the wallet installed and have an address. so i moved my dev coin to this address and my wallet doesnt show the transaction but a search on the blockexplorer shows the coins there. I think something is wrong with the wallet interface as it looks a bit "out dated".
