This is silly.

An exchange can have perfect security if they make their OWN backup of the chain every few days. They won't have to trust anyone else and still be able to recover quickly, with full confidence in the blockchain.

This procedure can be done by anyone, not just exchanges, if they don't want to trust someone else's chain. Better safer than sorry.

Due to the algorithm change in the past, syncing Diamond from scratch is painfully slow, until you reach the switch point (about one year ago). Working on fixing this issue, but it is very low priority at the moment, due to the options already mentioned.

The "distiled blockchain" posted on diamond.danbo.bg is generated always from scratch by an isolated node and contains minimal number of orphans and other junk.

Your statement, that Diamond suffers from forks and this is why you need to load an blockchain backup is not correct. You do not have to do this and Diamond is perfectly capable to load/verify it's blockchain.

Thanks for not spreading FUD.

Got the fork impression from posts in the forum.
Maybe you should give a detailed explantion to clear up exactly what is going on.
As it seems unclear.
I got it fixed but unknown why it forked.
I unlocked for minting and 3 transactions within two minutes.
All confirmed. Backed Up this database.
I am unstuck.lol

Never said it was not silly, just exchanges policy as far as I know.
Real question for you , is why won't the blockchain Reorg instead of the users having to restore old blockchains.
Plus this link was not fud , https://www.cryptsy.com/pages/status
It was to help you see their is an issue that needs to be resolved to get your cryptsy wallet working.
 Cool
