In my experience with altcoins and living a life of mistakes i suggest not syncing any wallet on a network. Just download the blocks and process the history offline by rescanning.
I could name a dozen ways this can go wrong, hell why did the developers think resending wallet transactions on loading wallet was a good idea lol. Imagine loading a wallet with orphan tx and boom as soon as you want 1/100th of your prev balance from the value going up you end up sending it all away.
Also keys can be in your log files if the database for the wallet is not detached. Or has run into corruption issues from cves or bugs. Dont delete the database directory no matter what people say.
