Hello,

I want to synchronize the wallet of one dead altcoin - but there is no one active connection.
So, I run 2 wallets from 2 different computers (different IP) and want they to synchronized. But they do not see each other.
I understand that I should to write something to *.conf file, but I have yet nothing comes out.

Help, please.
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

If no nodes is available, you will never be able to synchronize the wallets as there is no way for you to get the blockchain. Unless you have a copy of the most recent blockchain, don't bother trying. This is one of the downside of decentralised currency. To add node, add this into the config.
Code:
addnode=IP:PORT

if the altcoin is dead and there are no nodes then you won't able to sync your wallets
if you run 2 wallets on different PC and sync them then they will only sync the blocks they have on those PC, you can't sync to network with complete blockchain

I have the blockchain in one wallet, but it's not most recent.
I had written "addnode=IP" to config file (where IP - is IP of my computer with wallet which have the blockchain), but another wallet didn't see it.
If I'll use "addnode=IP:PORT" command, what PORT number I should to write?

If it dead, then you should abandon it.

You probably don't understand how it works. Go to the altcoin's thread, find the node's IP and port and input them accordingly. If they are down, then you wouldn't have chance of getting the wallet synced. You aren't suppose to put your own IP.

You can't sync 2 clients if none of them is a node (a client with most recent block chain).
To sync, you need at least one node that has most recent block chain and the node has to be online when you try to sync.

(Try comparing this to how torrents work. If 2 peers are exchanging data through P2P protocol, but none of them have 1 complete copy of the data, none of them will ever complete the download to 100%)

The best you can do is go to the official site (or their official thread here) and request IP of an active node. If there isn't one, you're out of luck.

Thank you all for your answers.
