I have been using Bitcoin Core because unfortunately I have some Bitcoin in my Armory wallet and would love to get Armory up and running so I can get my bitcoin out of there and not have to use Armory anymore.  Being a new person, I did not realize that you needed to go through all of this in order for your Bitcoin balance to be displayed prior to sending coins to my armory wallet

hey,

I have been downloading Bitcoin Core for five weeks and made 69% progress.  Suddenly its getting stuck and has not made any progress in the last 4 days.  The computer is all frozen/unresponsive and won't let me open anything up.  I have windows 10 with 8 GB RAM, 1000 GB hard drive.  There is Norton running in the background but other than that, there are no other programs running on the computer.  Really need some help here, this is a very frustrating situation.  I tried to attach a photo of my screen but I don't know how to do it in html.  its been stuck in "connecting to peers" on the bottom left of the screen for like 4 days

the log appeared again and this is what it says; hope this helps

hey there, I am not too technical and I could really use some help.  Like many people, I sent some Bitcoin to my armory wallet prior to knowing that I had to download and sync Bitcoin core with Armory first.  So I literally just spent the last three weeks downloading Bitcoin core and it was almost done (about 88.24% of the way done) and I get an error message  "an internal error message has occurred, please check the log".  I clicked "ok" and then the whole Bitcoin Core download just disappeared.  I have no idea what to do now about anything.  I have no idea where the log is and I am afraid that If i click on download bitcoin core again, it will just start over and erase the last three weeks of work.  I am really kind of desperate for help here and really wishing i never used Armory. I really hate this.  Thanks

Hello,

Does anybody know which wallets plan to support the Bitcoin Gold (BTG) friendly fork on October 1st? And what, if anything, should be done by the user?
