RE: Gridcoin - Joiners & Leavers (wk33)

in #gridcoin6 years ago

you can download the gridcoin snapshot here: https://download.gridcoin.us/download/downloadstake/signed/snapshot.zip
Note: The snapshot will not fully sync your client, but will rather bring you up to 80-90% sync. Allow your client to manually sync after the snapshot has been implemented.

Sort:  

Once you download and unzip the snapshot file (blk0001.dat) you drop it in (and replace the original) the gridcoin data folder. For widows: '%appdata%/Roaming/GridcoinResearch', For Linux '~/.GridcoinResearch, For Mac "Library/Application Support/GridcoinResearch

I left it overnight @ work. Sync'd now. I do need to buy a few coins, right? Any specific number of coins?

Just bought 2k. I am waiting to stake starting tomorrow!

Good luck @alexdory! Looking forward to see your article in #gridcoin when you stake the first time... :)
