To speed up initial block download, I have added a torrent that contains all blocks on main net. The torrent is updated weekly, and the latest version can always be found on
http://neptunefundamentals.org:42580/latest-snapshot.torrent.
To use this, you need to unpack the files and point the neptune-core
client to the directory where the blocks were extracted. After the blocks have been read, the downloaded files can be deleted, as neptune-core
will have created its own copy of the blocks.
Launch neptune-core
with the arguments --bootstrap-from-directory <directory>
(avoid using ~
in the path if you’re on Linux).
For more information about bootstrapping from blocks, see neptune-core/docs/src/user-guides/bootstrapping-state.md at master · Neptune-Crypto/neptune-core · GitHub
