Thanks @haitch, how is the update interval?

Currently every 24 hours - midnight local time. I can make it more frequent if desired.

@daWallet I have completed this step. How long should it take to download the block chain. Its been almost an hour now. I am using the http://localhost:8125/index.html wallet.

daWallet

@Cryptogotti If you really completed this steps above, then it should take minutes until your local wallet is fully synchronized.

Cryptogotti

@daWallet It looks like its synchronized now but it took quite some time. Also when I logged out and logged back in I was in someone else account - Jeff Tomasek!! How did that happen??? He had different transactions so I know it wasn't my account. Anyway this whole process has been very frustrating. Hopefully these issues are fixed soon and setup is more user friendly for newbies.

@Cryptogotti Is your passphrase longer than 30 characters long? It should be. With a long passphrase it is statistically 'impossible' to find another account l like you are describing.

This is new technology and new software - nobody said it's going to be easy. It's important to read carefully and watch the instruction videos. It was never so good documented like today.

Cryptogotti

@daWallet Yes my passphrase is 30 characters long but their was obviously some sort of glitch somewhere. I pasted it and hit enter and I ended up in the wrong account. I'm not trying to complain about things just letting your team know my experience with the wallet set up. This link http://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/burst-wallet/ basically sums up my experience. I understand that this is new technology but setting up a wallet account should be in my opinion straight forward. I'm glad wallet is up and running thanks to your info on the forums but now there are no tabs at the bottom to plot drive or start mining. Do I need to reinstall again or is there another file I can download? Also where do I find the instruction videos?

Will some kind of 2FA security be an option in the future to prevent falling victim to (unlikely) statistics?

daWallet

@Propagandalf It is not necessary. A passphrase of 30 (only numeric) characters can't be bruteforced in 87 quadrillion years with 400.000 tries per second. You can trust mathematics.

@Cryptogotti We got 800 new wallets the last 2 weeks and around 170 new miners on burst-team pool. Considering this, the number of users needing help is quite low and we are helping them here in this forum. Please open a new topic, because this one is about the direct download of the Blockchain.

I have tried to dl this file 3x's both times I get an error saying that the archive is corrupt.

I have also tried to dl the file from: https://cloud.crowetic.com/s/6anamQ3PVfaFxlO and get the same results. 2.4 G bandwidth wasted (sorry but I'm on Wireless Internet). Is there something I'm missing? I tried this method because it looks like going the regular route will take my laptop days to dl the initial blockchain.

Please assist and/or advise.

Have a magnificent day on PURPOSE!
