Why do we need bost-bootstrap ?

BootStrap file:
https://mega.nz/#!JRIQGSqL!O8cS-uTUp8oQj32f7VZm-NMKEQQSzsJzXIuY5qUFq_Q



Why i have in wallet balance 8830 and the link http://explorer.bost.link/address/BDKo54K3YvkhqKGprcFMCHuqKzeWr5eW3H say me i have 9266  Huh



P.S I add bootstrap in .. roaming/boostcoin.. now balance in wallet too 8831 )

The bootstrap.dat file is only needed if you are re-syncing. It will help speed up the block import process. If your wallet is already in sync and showing the green tick then you will not need it.
Next step is check your wallet is showing the same block height as the block explorer (currently 643277)

Now restart your wallet using the -rescan switch to see if it can recover missing transactions in your wallet. e.g.

Windows:
1) Using the command window, navigate to the folder where the executable is located
2) Run the following command...
Code:
boostcoin-core-qt-v4.4.1.2.exe -rescan

Mac:
1) Using Terminal, navigate to the folder where the boostcoin app is located
2) Now navigate to this folder inside the .app where the boostcoin-core-qt-v4.4.1.2 binary is located
Code:
/boostcoin-core-qt-v4.4.1.2.app/Contents/MacOS
3) Run the binary using this command with the -rescan switch
Code:
./boostcoin-core-qt-v4.4.1.2 -rescan



i use rescan and balance 8832 ... maybe here mistake ? >>>>   http://explorer.bost.link/address/BDKo54K3YvkhqKGprcFMCHuqKzeWr5eW3H   <<<<<

i send 1 boostcoin on btc38 all fine..


Everything works fine for me maybe you had some coins spent off the back up you used or sent coins from wallet when chain stopped moving.Either way -rescan/-reindex usually sorts it out.Also blockexplorers sometimes show incorrect balance and that happens with all coins.Mine showed a larger balance but I know it is less because I spent some but blockexplorer didnt indicate I spent them.
