At last an updated already re-indexed POS blockchain bootstrap.
To sync in a few minutes.
Back up your wallet before using this bootstrap!!!!!
Please Note
Back up wallet.dat file, the most important thing to do, so you don't lose your coins (if you don't know how to do it, ask for assistance first) or follow instructions below
Your wallet.dat file containing your balance and transaction history is located within your Quarkcoin folder. C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Quarkcoin
1. Copy the wallet.dat file directly from the Quarkcoin folder (C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Quarkcoin) and save it safely on your pc where you can easily locate it, if needed.
2. Rename the above mentioned "Quarkcoin" folder to Quarkcoinoldbackup.
3. Download the latest build of quark wallet and save to hard drive. https://github.com/quark-project/quark/releases/tag/v0.10.6.3
4. Install the latest build of Quark. Close down the wallet immediately after completion of installation if you left the run automatically after installation checked.
5. Open the newly created Quarkcoin folder, (not the Quarkcoinoldbackup) C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Quarkcoin and delete all the files within it. Do not overwrite existing files just to ensure no conflicts. leave the Quarkcoin folder open for the next step.
6. Copy and paste your wallet.dat file from your Quarkcoinoldbackup folder into your now empty Quarkcoin folder.
7. Download bootstrap zip file and save to your hard drive. https://mega.nz/#!YPRFzRob!iS20lMoV0aNM_byOuF9I1yGs6rYLovWxq1pessN_AuM]https://mega.nz/#!YPRFzRob!iS20lMoV0aNM_byOuF9I1yGs6rYLovWxq1pessN_AuM]https://mega.nz/#!YPRFzRob!iS20lMoV0aNM_byOuF9I1yGs6rYLovWxq1pessN_AuM
8. Unzip bootstrap and extract the 2 folders into the Quarkcoin folder you just pasted your wallet.dat file into. If having trouble to unzip install winRAR. https://www.win-rar.com/postdownload.html?&L=0
9. Open wallet and sync in a few minutes.
To Stake:
1. Open Quark wallet latest build v0.10.6.3
2. select help - debug window
3. select console tab
4. enter into console text field: walletpassphrase mywalletpassphrase 100000
^ ^ ^
(command) (your passphrase) (number of seconds for unlock)
5. press ctrl L to clear your console.
6. close debug window and watch your coins get minted if they are 30 days old or greater.
Happy staking!!!!
Item 4. is the unlocking procedure to stake and mint your coins. This is only required if your wallet is encrypted.
