Block Chain Download?
-
I downloaded the wallet last night. I left the Local wallet open last night while I slept to download the block chain. It appears that now about 8-9 hours later that the block chain has not downloaded any further. Does any one have a approximate time on how long this could take? Or has anyone had this issue before?? Id just like to know because I can't wait to start mining for some BURST!
Thank you guys

@xer0o1 You don't need to download block chain to start mining ...
Just go to Online Wallet instead of Local Wallet & start mining :)

@Castiel Okay, Thanks for the info. Every tutorial Video I saw said to "download the block chain" .... I have plotted 100gb of my hdd and was messing around with it and let it run for a while last night but couldn't tell if I was connected to the pool via the pool webpage so I wasn't sure ... Thanks again

@xer0o1 Blockchain is for someone who don't want to be dependent on Online Wallet.
Which pool you are mining on ? Have you Set Reward Assignment ?
-
@Castiel Im currently connected to http://pool.burst-team.us/ . I have set the reward assignment but i fear because this pool is being mined pretty heavily it will take a while to get a payout .. any suggestions on a pool for newb miners?
-
@xer0o1 For 100GB, I would recommend pool.burstcoin.eu
More or Less result would still be the same in Long run
-
@Castiel Thanks for that , I switched to http://burstpool.ddns.net/ and I seem to be connected. In the mining software there are some green and blue lines of text what do these mean? they only show up every now and then ...

-
@xer0o1 Blue Line means you found a deadline within the limit set by the pool... Green Line means that deadline is successfully submitted & confirmed

@Castiel Kool Thanks for the info bro

I would just like to add, since the online and local wallet had been mentioned here, that the local wallet (the one where you have to download the blockchain) is a lot more secure than the online version, but the online version can be more conventient. So, to be on the safe side with your main account at least, try to only use the local wallet with it.
