PrometheusX,

Have been staking well for months and suddenly, the Windows wallet hung again at block 404346 (C-CEX is now at 406182) so it's 28 hours behind. Have 14 connections so that shouldn't be an issue.

Is there a place to get current Windows blockchain files? Are you aware of any forks? Also noticed the wallet link in the OP is broken.

Not sure what's happened for you Diggio. I was previously having a lot of syncing problems with the v2120 Windows wallet, but am no longer experiencing them. Interestingly though I only have 4 connections (and I have all the nodes that have ever been noted listed in my .conf file) but it's working fine and I'm on the latest block.

You can also use the block explorer at http://blox.btx.rocks/ to check what the latest block is.

I don't know why but that link for the wallet download in the OP is going to an IP address (http://85.214.95.177/btx-uploads/BitcoinTX-v2120-win.zip). The hosting company has probably reconfigured servers. Someone needs to put the domain name address in there instead.

RenegadeMan - I sent you a pm but figured I would post the reply here also. I was able to get a 2012R2 VM setup during my lunch hour, and the Windows Qt started syncing at about 5pm ET. Hopefully the wallet till be synced very late tomorrow night or Saturday morning. I'm planning on doing the same for BTX that I started doing for Sling and is to create a zip of the wallet data directory for both the Windows and *Nix wallets. That way, ppl can pull the zip, follow a couple of steps and be synced in 1 to 2 hours in the worse case. Right now for Sling, I;ve been uploading the files to GitHub until I get the websites finished up. I plan on doing the same for BTX.

Thanks
MCDev

Thanks MCDev. That will be great and help people to get their wallet's resynced if needed without needing to wait for them to catch up the entire chain.

We should always have this capability (and the relevant downloadable files available) as standard on these projects. There are many reasons why someone may need to start fresh and bootstrap the blockchain.
