Newbie question: Just installed Bitcoin Core 2 days ago. Start synchronizing the block chain since (24 hours x 2) on Macbook 10.9.3 So far, I got only "Processed 239569 blocks, last received block generated 1 year and 16 weeks ago". The last received block still changing but... Why it is painfully slow like this? Any tip to accelerate the speed of synchronizing ?
If you know how to download a torrent file, you can speed up this process by putting bootstrap.dat (a previous copy of the block chain) in the Bitcoin Core data directory before starting the software.
Yes when you download the bootstrap file, the process is much faster.

I was also looking what is the way to buy hashlets. 1. You need a acc in Zencloud through friend(invite a friend) 2. Send some btc to Zenacc 3. Buy on the new Hash Market
Hash Market its cheaper as Gawminers or any Resellers.
