Ok, as promised here is the full blockchain I got from my Linux wallet as a backup about a week ago:
https://mega.nz/#!ygViUI4b!YorYjEl2BKZj6u5m6AcSCQkQSGKqbBshY1VOfCtWerM
I make backups periodically, as this chain tends to fork due to small number of active clients.
It is 1.23GB. I believe it is the correct chain, as it seems to be moving well. But as far as I understand, there is not much means to check it.
EDIT: ok, I can confirm now this is the correct blockchain. I have made test deposits to Bittrex and Cryptopia, and both went ok, so this is the same chain exchanges are running on.

Have you removed orphans from this file?
No. That is not a bootstrap, but the full ".8bit" directory backup with the databases (without wallet.dat and the .conf, of course
).steve321 was asking for the full dir, I assume because syncing from bootstrap still takes ages, if the PC/server is not the highest-end one.
