      hello guys

      Can some1 explain to me what is the difference between backing up the wallet and saving the wallet.dat file. Backing up the wallet creates a wallet.dat file so i assume saving the wallet.dat file and creating wallet.dat file via back up the wallet is the same ?and another thing 1 time backing up the wallet is it enough ? or i have to take a back up my wallet after every transcation ?

        Both ways to do a backup are equivalent.
        The backup.dat contains your private keys, not all the transactions of your wallet, so you need to create a new backup only, after you created a new receiving address in your wallet
