Hi eeX,

Initial sync can be tricky. There are two alternative that worked for me.

1) Download the block chain using Mega, Drive or url download. The links are here

2) Connect to a remote node. This will allow you to only get the headers and get your wallet working really fast. Setting up your own node is most secure option, but you should be fine using a remote node. You can find some instructions for the remote node here:

thanks for the link, but:

Unless you have an account on Mega, it is not possible to download the full >7GB blockchain.
Having a Mega free account does not help either as it stops downloading after about 2.5GB as you reach the quota.
Option 2 is not to be considered.

Any other alternative?

i have wasted 2 days in this, i tried to sync wallet but after 90% it just failed and did not load, then mega, no account so no limit, google drive gives error while zipping the file, when you download it automatically zip it and thats when it error out, not sure what could be the issue

Download each file separately without an archive. And everything works

First sync does take a very long time, but once it syncs everything works fine. Don´t give up friend Grin

We need more people using Bytecoin

Cool
