+## 🔐 **Wallet Backup & Restoration**
+
+### **Backup Your Wallet**
+```bash
+# Run the backup script
+./MINE/rin/dump_wallet.sh
+```
+- This creates a text file with all private keys in `~/rin_wallet_backups/`.
+- **Security**: Encrypt immediately with `gpg -c <file>`, store offline, delete unencrypted copy.
+- Contains sensitive data—anyone with this can spend your coins.
+
+### **Restore on New Node**
+```bash
+# Automated restoration (requires new node setup)
+./MINE/rin/restore_wallet.sh /path/to/backup.txt
+
+# Manual steps:
+# 1. Stop new node: sudo docker stop rincoin-node
+# 2. Copy wallet.dat or import dump file
+# 3. Start node: sudo docker start rincoin-node
+# 4. Load wallet: sudo docker exec rincoin-node rincoin-cli ... loadwallet main
+# 5. Import if using dump: importwallet /path/to/dump.txt
+```
+

 3. **Monitor performance** and adjust thread count as needed
 4. **Set up monitoring** for node health and mining performance
+5. **Backup wallet regularly** - Use the dump script above
