Electrum-LTC Sync Issues

I spun up a fresh Debian VM today to open up and manage a couple BTC and LTC wallets I had backed up for the last year or so.

Electrum of both flavors installed just fine, my BTC wallets loaded up quickly and perfectly but I am having an issue with the first LTC wallet I tried.

Dropped the backup of the wallet file in the wallets folder, opened it entered my password, but after almost 8 hours it still has not finished synchronizing. It will get to 86/90 then seem to restart. I quit out of Electrum-LTC and reopened the wallet, this time it shows the list of transactions (first time it showed nothing) however I am getting the same issue. Synchronization does not finish. For example on the last restart it pretty quickly went to 86/90, then 0/90 for a couple minutes, then back to 86/90.

Time is not of the essence, so if it has to sit over night not an issue. I am just wondering if LTC takes a really long time to get back into sync or if there is something I need to check with my install. It has been at least a year since I have used Electrum-LTC so there may just be quirks I forgot about.

Also, both electrum clients came from electrum.org and electrum-ltc.org respectively.

[Guide] Setting up a Monero full node on Tails

When should you use this guide Connecting to a third party remote node is not an option (threat model, agency, etc.) You are not able to host a private .onion remote node outside of Tails (with e.g. PiNode-XMR ) Running Qubes+Whonix is not an option This guide does not require setting up a root password or making changes to the firewall. For instructions on how to set up a wallet on Tails with a remote node, visit: http://xmrguide42y34onq.onion/tails What you will need 1 SSF USB (Tails+Blockchain) OR a regular USB (Tails) + external SSD (Blockchain) Corsair Flash Voyager GTX (CMFVYGTX3C-128GB) Sandisk Extreme PRO (SDCZ880-128G-G46) Samsung Portable SSD T5 A computer with at least 4 GB of RAM and an USB 3.0 port Some technical competence The device that stores the blockchain should have a capacity of at least 100 GB. Using the specs above and a recent processor syncing will take on the order of 15 - 30 hours. This will work with regular USB flash storage, but...

Monero node on an external HDD?

Do we need to use a 64+ GB USB 3.0 flash drive to download the monero node through tails or can we just download the monero node on Windows, store it on an external hard drive then just access it through tails with the monero GUI? My computer doesn't even support USB 3.0, and still stuck on 2.0 ports on an old gaming laptop, so I don't see a good reason to drop $50 just to have a secure monero wallet when I already have plenty of hard drives and space. I do boot windows from an SSD but don't really have 50gb to spare for a wallet. submitted by /u/waitwaitwaitup [link] [comments] via Monero: the secure, private, untraceable currency https://ift.tt/317KTeY
