Title: [ANN] "inofficial" Bootstrap.dat up to Block 279000 / Speedup Blockchain
Post by: Subo1977 on January 10, 2014, 12:06:11 PM
Hi together,
if you use the official Bootstrap.dat, which goes only to Block 250000, you must download another  > 29000 Blocks.

an other Solution is to download the "inofficial" bootstrap.dat which goes up to Block 279000.

You didn't need to trust them, because Bitcoinclient import up to Block 250000 and compare them with the buildin checkpoint.
The next blocks are normally imported, as they would have been downloaded from a peer. These are fully checked.
After Block 279000 the Block's are downloaded normaly from Peer.


You can try it.
If you like it: please seed the Torrent.
