Title: Slower wallet because of faucets
Post by: Starwing1 on March 11, 2016, 12:25:56 PM
Hi.
My mobile wallet always tells me that using faucets makes my wallet app slower.

Is there a way to reverse this effect when it happens? And how does it even effect the wallet?

What wallet?  I could depend on the implementation. 

Presumably, you could consolidate all the inputs through a transaction, but without knowing which wallet etc, it is hard to say for sure.

Hi
This is very simple, solution would be to just take all your coins and send them
to a new adress in the same app. Start with small amount, for a test when its 100% ok
send the rest of the coins. 2 transactions out of many :).

And i can say that, yes it is posible with mobile wallets when the device runs out of RAM.
Old multibit classic had the same problem.

If you like using faucets try to cumulate the coins in that old wallet to save the new one.

A User in a german bitcoin chat suggestiv me to use an online wallet at blockchain.Info for faucets.

He also mentioned that He had huge Problems with a Slowakei mobile wallet.
when He didnt open the app for like two days, it Took him hours to be up to date.
