I installed Bitcoin Full Node on Raspberry pi 3b+. Blockchain sync is dead slow because of less CPU. I Guess blockchain validation is time/CPU consuming thing. Is there a way to disable the validation and just download the chain? I understand the consequences. If my peers send wrong data, I will end up using wrong data. But I don't have an alternative. RPC calls are dead slow right now. I just need data to write some code.

Official block chain download link https://bitcoin.org/bin/block-chain/
But it is not updated since 2014.

There is a thread where a guy post latest block chain download link but use it at your own risk as it is not official https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1310261.0
Goto last pages for latest version..

Maybe you should not run a full node, but a lightweight wallet. A lightweight wallet does not download the full blockchain and is not time/gpu consuming.

You can try Electrum, many people use it here.

I think you are better off setting up a masternode for something like PIVX or DASH. A Bitcoin node is tricky and there is not much support for maintaining one
