FASTCOIN???
My wallet is downloading the blocks. NO problem, but it goes so slowly.
Already two days i'm downloading the blocks and still 70 weeks behind.
Is this normal?
Did you download the blockchain from the download page? Oh, i have version 4.8.5 Should i have downloaded an old version perhaps? Can i upgrade or is it better to restart again? You should try to run the -reindex command line perimeter, what happens is that after downloading the bootstrap/blockchian, the blocks will sometimes be out of sync from what the other nodes tries to send or request blocks you already have which causes the client to have to sort out the differences. Running the -reindex line helps organize the database and makes the rest of the sync process run more smoothly. Also, while importing the blockchain, it's a good idea to only connect to one node so this doesn't happen. Set maxconnections=1 in your .conf so you don't get several nodes sending you chunks of 500 blocks that you may already have. After you import, you can change to something like maxconnections=30 and then run -reindex if needed. I have done as mentioned. It goes indeed much faster. Downloading the blocks goes much quicker now. Thanks for the help. |

He was obviously wrong. Look the price is going up today .People believe in bitcoins and thats the only reason for it
I have exactly the same meaning as you mentioned in your post. I find you are completely right. |

It stays indeed about the same the last weeks. That's good that it does not go further down, but a little up the last time.
Hope it has reached the deepest point.

Today is Feb.28,2015. I cannot get into my account on BetashareX. Is there any info on this?  Are they gone? There doesn't seem to be any info on them at all. I think betasharex isn't online anymore. Maybe blocked. My coins are also stolen. They never arrived in my balances on this exchange. Thanks for answering me. What a shame? Was there any notice or indication? Didn't have a clue I don't know the reason. Maybe to many people who lost their coins this way and reported it somewhere?? I I don't know. |

I googled it.
I read an article about bitcoin about a year and half ago.
Then by google i surches for more news about bitcoin and i found a lot of links to bitcointalk.
It was indeed a great forum i found this way.
I spend already a lot of hours here.
