A local wallet has a list of 'wellKnownPeers' if you refer there to peers on a fork or stuck, your local wallet may also stuck. But it was just a few peers, not the whole network that run into a problem yesterday.

@evol14life
Only use a faucet if it still has burst on its account.

The above can not send you any burst, for example.
Little guide for the burst wallet (not the AIO client)
Step1:
Ensure you have java8 installed ...Step2:
Download latest wallet here:
https://github.com/burst-team/burstcoin/releases
Unzip where you like and execute run.bat
A command line window should open, do not close it.
Open http//localhost:8125 in your favorite browser.
(also linked from the wallet folder)
It could take quite a while to sync blockchain.Step3 (optional):
If that works so far, you can speed up sync blockchain
by download https://db.burst-team.us/db.zip
Stop your wallet again by closing command line window,
extract db.zip into the burst_db folder and start the wallet again.
ALTERNATIVE
You can speed up sync via

why blockchain after existing burst software needs to download again? I have downloaded it one time before.
-
@naziburst for me i have stop downloading it over and over
-
@cashgold how you stop it?
-
@naziburst i quit the window and restart my pc
-
@cashgold maybe there are better solutions with this situation when it takes about 3.8 GB of the internet for downloading this every time. I think burst buying is better than mining.
-
@naziburst yes buying is , like me bought some including mining invest in asset but almost all gone now , scam asset everywhere
-
@cashgold I'm sorry for that. could you tell me why it happened? I thought burst is secure
-
yes burst is secure , i guess there some group of bad gang manipulating things.
