Hello, Is this still alive? I invested whole bitcoin to grain nearly 4 years ago. I already lost hope for recovering that money.
Any working nodes? I want to sync my wallet.

Hi Glad, Basically, the file can be downloaded, (re)named to be bootstrap.dat and then used with graind, to fast track the initial sync. Once the sync has completed it can be used with specific addnode entries to connect with other peers to (re)establish the Grain swarm. Though, you may want to look back a couple of pages in the thread regarding the proposed and ongoing efforts from bee7. Currently, the main use of the bootstrap.dat is so you may get your wallet going again to be able to check a balance. Best Regards, -Chicago |

Hi Glad, Specifically, you would open your .Grain/ directory where the wallet.dat lives and place the file there and then start Grain's daemon with a -loadblock=bootstrap.dat there. So first rename the file to be bootstrap.dat and then put it into the coin daemon's directory and then start Grain w/ the -loadblock argument as specified. You'll notice it starts reading the file and processing blocks immediately and then once it has finished, the file gets automatically renamed to be bootstrap.dat.old. Best Regards, -Chicago |

Hi Chicago,
Thanks for your reply, I don't follow it. I m putting my bootstrap into my roaming folder because there is my wallet situated then I starting to launch my grain. Do I have to input something into my console? Is it not better to wait for the relaunche or is this needed to recover? and how does your config file look like? there is no connection.

Hi Glad, You're welcome.  I think it will be easier to walk you through the process if we chat about it. I'm going to be around for a while today, so if you want to find me on freenode using webchat, then I can help you import the linear bootstrap.dat. Best Regards, -Chicago |

Oh my, I am sorry to hear that... If you just lent that BTC or invested it conservatively it could be 2-3 coins by now. Oh well |
Look into the eyes.

It loads the block for 4 hours then crashes. It repeated few times. Can I sync my wallet without bootstrap? Just downloading blocks from the beginning. |

Hi Tara11, Please share the error you found in the debug.log at the time of the crash, or if it was an exception printed to the console let me know what you found as the error. Also, could you tell me a little bit about your system? Are you 32-bit, 64-bit; running on Linux or on Windows? Which version of Windows/Linux? Let me know what happened so we can figure out what went wrong. I know @bee7 was able to use the bootstrap.dat without significant difficulty earlier this year -- so I'm hoping the symptoms of your problem may just be related to disk usage or memory exhaustion or something simple to troubleshoot. Best Regards, -Chicago |

Best Regards, -Chicago Hi, Chicago. It loads the wallet for few hours. Then crashes without message. I'm using windows 7 32bit. I used every single nodes written in this thread. Without bootstrap it says no connection to network. But I can see my balance unconfirmed. |

I started my node which has the bootstrap.dat loaded into it. Just make sure you put an irc=1 into your Grain.conf and your wallet should find the swarm. Best Regards, -Chicago |

How many people are running this at the moment? I'm currently syncing (from back in 2015) but connected to a single peer only. The starting height of the peer is much higher than the block explorer's current block, which would normally suggest a fork, but the explorer seems to be stuck in 2016: http://explorer.graincoin.net/edit: I can see the same peer listed back in May 2015 when it seems I last ran the client. They connected to me today (rather than me finding them), which I guess means their client has been trying to connect to my IP for over 2 years. Persistence really does pay off... |
