Can someone help me out?
I downloaded the wallet yesterday and it’s been syncing ever since. I’m still 2 years 13 weeks behind.
Is there a link I can download it fast at?
Thanks in advance for the help!
leandro030821 you can try the bootstrap method.
Do a quick search for reddcoin bootstrap.
It is normal behaviour for Reddcoin Core 2.0 to take a long time to sync. The limitation is CPU performance particularly on older CPUs. The reddcoin-qt will often seem unresponsive also. We are working on Reddcoin Core 2.1 which will inherit featured from Bitcoin 0.10, including “headers first” synchronisation which we anticipate will give a significant improvement to sync behaviour. Meanwhile the current behaviour is distinctly sub-optimal, but if you leave it to do its stuff, it works fine.
Thanks for the replies.
I left the computer on all night and got here this morning and it finished syncing.
Time to stock up some Reddcoins!
Also, can you guys teach me how to make a bootstrap? I wouldn’t mind taking my time to create one and upload it for new users.
It’ll help them out a lot. I’m sure there are some people that give up because of how long it takes to sync.
Has been syncing 12 hours now and still on 2 years and 32 weeks.
But I found a solution and hope it will work https://wiki.reddcoin.com/index.php?title=Bootstrap_the_Reddcoin_Blockchain
I got a RDD blockchain snapshot from here:
You can download and extract it to your reddcoin folder, where blockchain files are stored. It is not perfectly up to date (dont remember it right, but approx. 30-50 weeks of chain data have to be loaded after importing).
Mbprofits Update - Did not work. Took approx 36 hours to sync
