Title: I'm downloading a wallet using bitcoin-qt, but blockchain stuck at 2-3 hours Post by: Iwiley1 on January 05, 2014, 12:42:51 AM Hi all,
A novice here, but I'm excited about the possibilities that this technology has to offer. I'm downloading a wallet using bitcoin-qt, but the block-chain is stuck at 2-3 hours. After waiting days for it to download, this is extremely frustrating. I've tried rebooting, but the same thing happens. Is my block-chain corrupted? Do I need to reinstall the entire block-chain? Is there an easier/safer way to do this? I'm looking to try and do this the most secure way. Any help/input would be greatly appreciated. Thank You Title: Re: I'm downloading a wallet using bitcoin-qt, but blockchain stuck at 2-3 hours Post by: colinfx on January 05, 2014, 12:45:19 AM I believe the bitcoin-qt sync download is something like 12GB of data. You can get a faster sync with Multibit wallet for BTC, do a Google search, i've seen this problem mentioned several times and Multibit client is usually mentioned as the solution.
Good luck! Cfx. |
