I have installed the QT wallet and it has taken 3 hours to go from 2 years and 30 weeks behind to 2 years and 27 weeks behind. At this rate it should take a little over 5 days to sync. Is this right?
Download the blockchain from the website
http://bitbay.market/downloads/Here the link
http://www.davtonia.com/bitbay/bitbaybootstrap.zip or you can go directly to the page its much faster if you do it like this and sync after you download the bootstrap .
Keep in mind that the bootstrap at the current time does not work on Macs for some reason.
