Start9 question:
The syncing of bitcoin core seemed to run pretty fast up until around 75%. Now it’s extremely slow. Like 3 % in 24h slow. Sometimes it even times out and tries to reconnect.
Logs are not containing any problems. They only show new blocks one after another. But at a very slow pace.
Setup:
- intel core2duo p8700
- 8gb of ddr3 ram 1333mhz
- 2tb ssd
The blocks it seems to struggle with are from 2023. I wonder if that might have to do with ordinals being introduced and bigger blocks?
#asknostr #start9 #node #bitcoin
Setup already in progress 💪
The ssd already arrived and found its new home in the mini pc.
I chose to start with StartOS. Installation was s breeze an the documentation on the Start9 website is one of the best i ever saw 👌
Now need to sync the #bitcoin blockchain. Excited how long it will take. Can’t wait to finally connect my wallet 😱🤩
