uploading blockchain

Great idea. I have been trying to sync for days now and I am still 5 days behind.

But does anybody know why the Huntercoin blockchain takes so long to sync? There are other coins which also have fast blocks yet they sync quickly and easily.

I suspected that scrypt mining was turned on by default but I see it isn't.

Will this problem become worse as the number of players increase? Why?

Mind you - why would downloading from a single server be faster than downloading from other players?

I would prefer the blockchain to be added to the Github source.

Surely it should be possible to mine a new genesis block with the player info saved and reflected in the new chain. That is what accountants do at the financial year-end.

namecoin is the same..

maybe will make a difference when domob reimplement on libcoin
