Yes. The entirety of the blocks and chainstate folders must be copied. This includes any and all contents.Title: Re: Can i copy blocks folder from 1 laptop to another laptop Post by: qasimilyas99 on July 22, 2017, 11:34:10 PM I have copied blocks & chainstate to new installation but bitcoin core stuck in Connecting to peers.

A small possibility of it being a corruption. IIRC, many people couldn't connect to peers when their blockchain got corrupted even though the client didn't state that it was. Could you paste your debug.log here?Go to Help>Debug Window>Console and try pasting in Code: addnode 217.20.23.204 add |
