Re: [ANN][MINT] Mintcoin Newsletter Week in Review: August 5th, 2014
Hello all Mintcoiners,
I have uploaded a full copy of the Mintcoin Blockchain to Megaupload. This is to help all Mintcoiners who are new and want to fully sync their wallets from scratch quickly.
The link for the Blockchain as of August 11th is available here https://mega.co.nz/#!8x8zwZgS!TSg2kis3nLWx12_SsDFnbjQA-zDoOfhdkC09i3ks12g
The Zip file compresses the Blockchain by 31% and provides a direct link for download. The size of the file is 750 MB and takes about 1 hour to download vs approximately 36-48 hours to Sync from scratch.
I posted an in depth guide on sharing the Blockchain in this way a couple pages back as well.
Happy Mintcoining

Fabulous! Thanks!
Cryptomommy asked me if I could do this for you guys and so I took the time out to do this for you guys so please make sure that this isn't going to get buried in the thread pages.
I don't own any Mintcoin and don't have a lot of time to devote to helping other Altcoins so I would like it if a someone from the community could take the time to test, adapt and polish the guide for Mintcoin which I posted a few pages back https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=450381.16600
In return for my services I would like it if you guys please could link me to the process you are using for uploading and hosting the Blockchain via Torrents.
I don't have loads of bandwidth, but I'd be more than happy to help seed.
Who can make a torrent and seed this? Also the magnet link on the announcement thread needs to be deleted as it is old and doesn't work.
Well I tried testing it out but it is not working for me. I downloaded it, and pasted the files into my Appdata > Mintcoin folder but when I run the wallet, it gives an error message. Does this happen for anyone else?
It has worked with other coins, what exactly did you do and what error message was given?
