5 hours is very good. Just try Bitcoin and you might wait more than a week to load the full blockchain...
It depends on your internet speed...
If you dont want to load the full blockchain, use the Loki Electron Wallet
https://docs.loki.network/Wallets/WalletsOverview/...and connect to a remote node.
It is the wallet that I am using and I connect to a remote node, but when I send with priority Blink tells me PRIORITY ERROR, it also happens with Slow priority, it gives me a TRANSACTION WAS NOT CONSTRUCTED error.
by any chance is there a torrent that can download full blockchain?
