The data directory is where all of Bisq's data files are stored.
Data directory structure
Notable items in the data directory:
bisq.log
- main log file with most recent logs, often helpful for debugging. This file may contain private information, so it's usually not wise to post the whole thing publicly.bisq.properties
- place to store command-line options, so you don't have to specify them every time you run Bisq (where each option is on a new line in<option>=<value>
format, e.g.,dumpStatistics=true
).btc_mainnet/
- main data directory.keys/
- keys for signing P2P messages as well as signing and aging payment accounts.db/
- various user data and network data. It is strongly discouraged to edit any files in this directory.tor/
- Tor state data. Thehiddenservice/
folder within determines your onion address.wallet/
- BTC and BSQ wallet files and rolling backups, as well as thebisq.spvchain
file.
