Here’s a quick guide on how to add additional nodes / connections to the DigiByte network, in a bid to help speed up your blockchain download.
Alternatively you can download a Bootstrap for DigiByte and then follow the instructions here.
Opening your DigiByte Core Wallet for the first time, you’ll be greeted by a screen telling you it needs to sync around 5 years worth of transactions. That in itself isn’t too bad, as of July 2019 it’s around 13GB. What you want is to be connected to as many peers (nodes) as possible, in order to get it to download as fast as possible.
- Place this config in the following path:
# ~/.digibyte/digibyte.conf
server=1
daemon=1
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
maxconnections=200 addnode=seed1.digibyte.io addnode=seed2.digibyte.io addnode=seed3.digibyte.io addnode=seed.digibyte.io addnode=seed.digibyteprojects.com addnode=digihash.co addnode=digiexplorer.info addnode=seed.digibyteguide.com addnode=seed-1.us.digibyteservers.io
Then, just leave the DigiByte Core Wallet open and downloading the Blockchain, come back later, and you’ll be ready to go!
