Title: So many coins, wallets and network syncs.. Post by: NorrisK on January 07, 2014, 09:32:50 PM So how do you all deal with the increasing amount of coins, the resulting wallets and the networks that need syncing?
Do you sync them on a regular basis? Do you sync them when you need the coins? (which can then take up hours if you didn't sync for a month) Do you refuse to use all the shit that is released? Please enlighten me as all the syncing is starting to annoy me.. Title: Re: So many coins, wallets and network syncs.. Post by: Vivisector999 on January 07, 2014, 09:50:33 PM My fix is to pick about 5-10 of your favorites, and not jump from coin to coin as they are being created. Then my active ones like Bottlecaps, I have synced all the time, while others like BTC or LTC, I sync them whenever I transfer coins in, or transfer them out. Sure it takes a while, but they don't need to be up to date if your not using them atm.

Title: Re: So many coins, wallets and network syncs.. Post by: Fandekasp on January 07, 2014, 09:58:50 PM I only sync wallets when I feel like checking an alt coin. I'm thinking long term, so I don't need to sync everyday.
Best is to create them in a virtual machine (eg vagrant + docker) to isolate the risk of a software being a scam. After, I'm working on http://www.coinsmanager.com/ to be able to manage all my public addresses, my coins and see their value. Title: Re: So many coins, wallets and network syncs.. Post by: yabit on January 07, 2014, 09:59:30 PM I use about 130 wallets (about 60GB) at the moment, syncing when needed, but the main problem is not syncing but wallets that doesn't work and must be updated or reloaded. I don't use more the 3 wallets at the same time, because my harddisc is stressed too much by p2p. I'm thinking about an external ssd or a fast usb3 stick.

In fact I bet there is a lot of fiat to be made making one of these and selling it, I think many many people would want one, as long as it was relatively cheap. Title: Re: So many coins, wallets and network syncs.. Post by: NorrisK on January 07, 2014, 10:46:02 PM Guess I'll do that as well, only sync what is really needed. Not planning to sell anytime soon anyway, not in this alt dip "crisis".
