Bitcoin-Qt taking forever to sync. Progress sometimes goes back.

People are still attached to the fact that they must have an account to manage their money, lol. Like Matrix, people won't accept that it's just a prison

I reach into my back pocket and pull paper (linen) money out of my leather wallet all the time.  My wallet doesn't have any accounts in it, just an address (leather wallet, my back pocket).  I can add money to that wallet by moving it to that address. I thought that was why it was decided to call it a "wallet", so people wouldn't expect it to have "accounts".

Good evening fellows,

It is with great content that I inform you that my trials and tribulations through the bitcoin and entire internet currency world have come to an end and all was done just as it should have been. The thing that helped me the most was this https://blockchain.info/it/wallet/import-wallet . Many thanks to Gabi, her post directed me in the easyest way to surcomvent the whole synchronizing overture. B.I.G. shout out to DannyHamilton as well, you were a lot of help, ma man!

Much love, people!


P.S. I feel like a whole new world of trading has opened up!
