Has anyone downloaded the QT Wallet? Its taking quite along time and taking up a lot of CPU power, like it is doing something in the background other than just downloading the blockchain. Anyone else have this experience?
Just downloaded and installed the QT wallet (5 hours ago). Installed the 64 bit version on win 7 without any problems and let it run. It has been running for 4.5 hours "syncing to the network". downloading a large blockchain file called "bootstrap.dat". The wallet "sync'd headers" after the first hour showing a percentage, so it is doing something.
I am sure my wallet will eventually sync but it seems to take a long time. I think patience and several hours is needed for the wallet sync to complete.
After I sweep the keys from my empty LTC wallet to claim the new LCC in the QT wallet I will be holding my LCC for a while. The LCC development team is wickedly smart and moving the project along. I think once better established on bigger exchanges (and with the influx of many more buyers) that LCC will be much much higher in price.
