WARNING: Do not share your private keys and passphrase with anyone else.

  • init checks for old versions of chia installed in the ~/.chia directory.
  • If an old version of Chia exists, init migrates these old files to the new version:
    • config (including old SSL files)
    • db
    • wallet
    • Using config.yaml, updates wallet keys and ensures rewards go to the right wallet.
  • If no old version exists, init:
    • Creates a default chia configuration.
    • Initializes a new SSL key and cert (for secure communication with the GUI).
