Title: Restoring from paper wallet
Post by: boblefisken on September 06, 2017, 11:46:20 AM
I have just made a new installation with armory on a new client in order to restore an old paperbackup.
The second step "building database" take forever and I can see that the directory just has passed 100GB. what will be the total size of the directory before it has finished downloading ?. /finn

Did you install and sync Bitcoin Core? Armory requires Bitcoin Core to be installed and fully synced if you want your transactions and coins to show up... a full blockchain on Bitcoin Core is currently around 140gigs...
