I would like to recommend to the team since Digifinex is not listed in Coingecko and Cornmarketcap in Bitgesell exchanges, we should create a new signature code because on our signature code Digifinex is listed as the main exchange, we can replace it with Hotbit or Crex.

I noticed there's only 2 exchange Bitesell echange Digifinex was part of it a week ago
https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitgesell#markets, did they delist Bitgesell, or they are correcting the link, the link used to redirect to BTC-USDT if I may recall, Digifinex is still a good exchange I traded here many times and they are a good exchange to use.
Digifinex charges 60 BGL for each withdrawal. They show the drop down menu for fees as Normal (60.0000 BGL) but there is no option for slow, fast withdrawal.

On Hotbit, the withdrawal fee is only 20 BGL.

Yes, lesson learned for me as well. Luckily, I lost no coins this time. Scary Smiley

Absolutely, I will store the file encrypted in different places this time. I think I will stick with the wallet.dat backup option + strong passphrase.
Remember to write down your strong passphrase. You will lose your coin if you lost your strong passphrase and won't be able to get access to your private key in that encrypted wallet.dat file.

I made that mistake because I thought I can remember the passphrase. After I did not open the wallet each week, a few months later, I forgot the passphrase and lost my coin. It's bad memory and terrible lesson.

EDIT: When I first opened BGL Core a while ago, I played with it like a noob and created a few wallets besides "Main", can I delete those wallets?
Take a precaution doing this, if you mistakenly delete the wrong file and didn't have a proper backup, you might lose your coins.

Depending on your OS, go to the default data directory
Code:
#Windows
%APPDATA%\BGL
#Linux
~/.BGL/
#Mac
~/Library/Application Support/BGL/

Open the folder named "wallets", then delete the folder(wallet) you want to delete.
 


The file you store your private key should be encrypted. The same goes for your wallet.dat file. If hackers can get access to your private key, your coins will be stolen.

A very bad practice is keep your private key in Notepad file, unencrypted. You can use Keypass, read more in [GUIDE] How to Create a Strong/Secure Password
Yea, storing a bare private key unencrypted is bad security/backup practice.

@gcf0z If your intention is to backup your wallet, I think you better to store the encrypted wallet.dat file. And also use a strong passphrase.

After doing that you should be able to dump the keys using dumpprivkey on the BGL Core console.

I get this error when I try dumpprivkey command "Error: Please enter the wallet passphrase with walletpassphrase first. (code -13)" Thank you

You encrypted your wallet with a passphrase, to dump the private key you have to unlock it first.

Code:
walletpassphrase "your-passphrase" timeout

Quote
Arguments:
1. passphrase    (string, required) The wallet passphrase
2. timeout       (numeric, required) The time to keep the decryption key in seconds; capped at 100000000 (~3 years

After doing that you should be able to dump the keys using dumpprivkey on the BGL Core console.


Thank you all! It worked after I unlocked the wallet.
After dumprivkey command, those keys can be later used if I'll need to restore the backup.dat file?
Thank you guys for bearing with my newbieness

Is there a way to view my wallet private keys?
If you don't show them, then no, no one sees your keys. Beware of resources that ask you to enter your private key. Or they should be in the list of trusted ones from the developer. Use BGL Core.

I'm using BGL Core, I was asking if there is a way I can view my passphrase to write it down again, in case I lost my backup. Thank you.
Of course, this can be done very simply. This has already been written here. Both methods work, you can choose any one.

How to export a wallet such private key or anything to save or moving my wallet to another device? i have a habit to reinstall my windows frequently.
If you use a Windows wallet, there are 2 ways.
1. Copy your wallet.dat file (do this when the client has finished working). After changing the system/computer, overwrite the wallet.dat file with your own, which you copied and saved.

2. Extract all private keys. Do this for each of your addresses using the Client Console.
Code:
dumpprivkey your_address

After changing the system/computer import your private saved key.
Code:
importprivkey your_privkey

All the rules that are valid for the BTC client are played here.

You can dump private key of one address or dump all the wallet. Use the code in your Console, and command line.

Code:
dumpprivkey "address"
dumpwallet "filename"

You can copy your wallet file in the directory. Open your wallet, choose the tab Windows, choose Information. You will get the directory in which your wallet file is stored.
Copy the link in Datadir line that is something like. Copy and paste the link into the Search box of your OS and open the folder.
You will see the sub-folder wallets
Copy and paste the wallet file as your backup. Use it on your other computers.
Code:
C:\Users\xxxxxx\AppData\Roaming\BGL

Zpool finally upgraded to the latest node version and signalling the taproot activation. The soft-fork should get through, noting Zpool has a majority of the BGL hash rate.

I'm using BGL Core, I was asking if there is a way I can view my passphrase to write it down again, in case I lost my backup. Thank you.
There are multiple ways to do in order to back up your wallet or a specific private key of a public address you use to store your Bitgesell coins.

Backup with your wallet file is the easiest method but you have to do:
- Multiple wallet.dat files in multiple devices (computer, laptop or multiple USBs)
- When one USB is broken, technically it is possible, you will have a few others to use.
- Regularly check up those USBs to make sure that are usable. If one USB is broken, you should replace it with another one.

It's important that if you set a passphrase for your wallet (you encrypt it), you must backup the passphrase as well. If you lose it, you will not be able to access your wallet.dat file. Then you will lose your Bitgesell coins.
