It will take a lot of time for someone to upload it for you then you to download it , but since you are willing to do that ... why not just clean the whole folder and let Bitcoin Core download it from zero ? that way you make sure everything is fine . Title: Re: please share Post by: franky1 on January 06, 2016, 09:09:33 AM i think the OP got a duff chain from some random website..
maybe best to get it from the official place just googled https://bitcoin.org/bin/block-chain/ seems out of date but atleast gets the ball rolling for atleast 6 years of data Title: Re: please share Post by: Amph on January 06, 2016, 10:02:54 AM you will end up with corruption, most likely, everytime i touch those fail in that way, something went uttelry wrong...
it's better to restart from zero as suggested Title: Re: please share Post by: calkob on January 06, 2016, 10:12:32 AM yeah why would you want to get it from someone else when you can just run core , the time difference is not a big issue.. I would be worried also about the security of what i was sent.
Title: Re: please share Post by: helloeverybody on January 06, 2016, 10:23:03 AM i Reformatted and had to reinstall the whole chain last night, At this time now im down to only 26 weeks, I doubt it would have been much quicker even if i was to download the blockchain from a torrent or direct download. Unless you are in a major rush i think you are probably just as well using core. I do notice that for some reason it does not seem to download at full speed all the time. Sometimes im downloading at 6mb/s but at other times its down to a few kbs for a while.
