Selective Export

Export specific UTXOs with their BEEF proofs. Useful for restoring individual UTXOs to a wallet or sharing proof bundles.

Go to Holdings → Select & Export
Full Export (Unencrypted)

Export everything as a zip: a plain JSON archive plus the RECOVERY.txt guide. Not encrypted — anyone who opens it sees your holdings (but can't spend them). Use it for quick backups on trusted devices, or the encrypted export for anything you'll store elsewhere.

About BEEF in UTXOrder exports:

  • BEEF proofs are stored as base64-encoded binary data inside the JSON.
  • Some external tools (e.g. beef.bsv.tools) expect raw hex BEEF, not the JSON wrapper.
  • Use the BEEF Format Converter (under BEEF Tools on Validation page) to convert between base64 and hex offline.
Export (Encrypted)

Export an AES-256-GCM encrypted archive. Use this for backups on untrusted storage or for air-gapped transfer.

📦 Encrypted exports are bundled as a .zip with a standalone decryption tool for future-proof access without UTXOrder.

Import Archive

Import a UTXOrder archive to restore your coins, BEEF, and headers. Works with any export — a .zip (encrypted or plain), a raw .enc file, or a plain .json. Encrypted archives ask for your passphrase; plain ones don't.

Note: Importing merges with existing data. Duplicate UTXOs (same outpoint) will be updated, not duplicated.
