Title: VERY IMPORTANT ASK!!!
Post by: pupas1989 on February 07, 2014, 06:00:42 PM
HI GUYS!!

I have received a payment in bitcoin to my bitcoin wallet unsinchronized..
that say 0.00 btc..
Why??
The wallet must be sinchronized to receive bitcoin?
And them can I already have my bitcoin after sinchronization or it's lost??

Thank you

No, you can receive payments before your client is synchronised. To find the balance of your address use blockchain.info (http://blockchain.info/) while waiting for your client to synchronise.

another question..

It's good to update blockchain by the file: bootstrap.dat?

Then I can auto-update anytime normally??

I have find a torrent With a bootstrap dimension of 13.2 GB::

Downloading the blockchain from a torrent is faster than over the bitcoin network.  You typically only have to do it once, then the client will update from the network as needed in smaller pieces.

If you haven't started downloading the block data or started it for just a while, you could download the bootstrap using a torrent to save some time.

If you are already halfway through or the initial sync is almost completed, you can just forget about the bootstrap torrent.
