Important Notes

• 15th February 2019 is the deadline, you must migrate all your sprout funds to sapling (after the deadline sprout addresses and their operations will be disabled)
• It can take few hours to complete (specially if you have tons of mined funds in small utxo sizes)
• Make sure not to close the daemon aggressively in the middle of migration process
• If you run the stop command, it will finish the current operation, then the daemon will stop
• Once the process finishes you will see notification message in console
• Press Enter button on your keyboard to Finish.

zmigrate best practices

• Finish the process as soon as you can, don't leave it for later
• Once you are done with migrating the funds, take a backup of the private key of your sapling address(s)
• Stop the daemon
• Backup the wallet.dat file first in a safe place then delete it from data dir
• Start the wallet again
• Import the sapling address(s)'s private key and start a fresh wallet
