Ok, as promised here is the full blockchain I got from my Linux wallet as a backup about a week ago:

Great, just downloaded and put it in my 8bit folder, its working great! Thanks a lot!https://mega.nz/#!ygViUI4b!YorYjEl2BKZj6u5m6AcSCQkQSGKqbBshY1VOfCtWerM
You're welcome
On a different note - while its great to have http://explorer.8-bit.ga/ block explorer, but it misses one very important feature - the active node list. It would be extremely helpful to have an officially published list of nodes to connect.
I have all the "nodeXX.8-bit.ga" nodes in my 8bit.conf, however most of the time I have just one or two peers, most of which are not even up to date. My default connection port (18888) is open and "listen" is set to 1, so I don't see what prevents me from connecting to other nodes, if there are any. As a result my stakes are not being accepted, and running masternode has no effect as the network seem, to accept only *some* nodes, while ignoring others. Does anyone has similar issues and/or... is someone playing with the code..?
I'm going to add 2 nodes on different servers, and when they are up and running, you can add my ip to your addnode list.
Are you able to provide a how to guide for setting up masternodes? I want to get a few going to and help secure the network
I was thinking about making a how to guide. First I have to get mine working and once done, I can work on that.
