Title: Re: How to install and synchronize Bitcoin Gold official wallet Post by: Cuzzle on November 13, 2017, 05:23:14 PM wow is that ever fast! I used the bitcoin.conf method and headers synced to 99.4 % in about 30 seconds. I had this open for an hour before and it did not update at all.
Awesome tip!! ;D Title: Re: How to install and synchronize Bitcoin Gold official wallet Post by: two_btc on November 13, 2017, 05:48:38 PM you can also use btg wallet online ^^ Does it work? Is it possible to import private key from Windows wallet to it? Title: Re: How to install and synchronize Bitcoin Gold official wallet Post by: AARosie on November 13, 2017, 06:57:47 PM Wow, added the addresses to the .conf file and it's saying something like 50+ weeks to sync! :o
Title: Re: How to install and synchronize Bitcoin Gold official wallet Post by: Stalesamy on November 13, 2017, 07:33:03 PM what is the -bootstrap method? I just went into the directory where bitcoin-qt is but don't know what to do now.
Title: Re: How to install and synchronize Bitcoin Gold official wallet Post by: Cuzzle on November 13, 2017, 08:36:40 PM what is the -bootstrap method? I just went into the directory where bitcoin-qt is but don't know what to do now. FIRST make a text file called bitcoin.conf that has all the nodes (from the second post above) save this bitcoin.conf file in the same directory the wallet is installed in THEN hold shift and right click in empty area of file explorer (where the bitcoin-qt.exe file is) and choose 'open command window here' this will open a command line (black dos window) type in bitcoin-qt.exe -bootstrap this will open the wallet Title: Re: How to install and synchronize Bitcoin Gold official wallet Post by: two_btc on November 14, 2017, 07:06:26 AM what is the -bootstrap method?

First if I try to start it with -bootstrap , it cannot be done.
https://gyazo.com/00c532f4d77cf93095357e7354f4ed3b Second I somehow managed to run bitcoinwallet (maybe without the bootstrap method) it just ran. Through console if I write addnode XXX.XX.XX.XXX:8338 add (for example ) I get response NULL from console . Is this right ? Thanks in advance. Title: Re: How to install and synchronize Bitcoin Gold official wallet Post by: N0pr3s3n7 on November 14, 2017, 09:54:46 PM well what is wrong with my attempt :
I manually added all the nodes from above post (although I created bitcoin.conf file with them) . But still nothing is working, https://gyazo.com/588b2ac37e63121b823b72e9db314689 https://gyazo.com/a44150cb6619a510bb79fc8b27dbfb32 https://gyazo.com/d97c7ca4664cfc585b04e5c22444f816 Title: Re: How to install and synchronize Bitcoin Gold official wallet Post by: Rlking63 on November 16, 2017, 12:57:01 AM Hello, So is the correct port 8333 at the end of each node or 8338 even if the Synchronization is complete. Plus if I entered this at ...Help -> Debug window -> Console
addnode xxx.xxx.x.x:8333 add should I change it to 8338? Thanks |
