WARNING: Only use these data files IF YOU HAVE AN EMPTY (or no) WALLET.

While it "may" be fine to put these in with an existing wallet, and use the -rescan option, the target audience here is new ElectricVOLT installs with an empty wallet.

Who needs this? - Any first-time user of ElectricVOLT, who wishes to avoid the lengthy block chain download through the p2p network.

Instructions:

  • Unzip and copy blk*.dat files into your Electric directory
  • Remove any database/log* files from your electric/data directory
  • Run Electric-qt or electricd

What this does:

  • Resets the electric block database and block database index to the state it was in at the time the snapshot was taken.
  • If you have a wallet with unprocessed transactions, the client may not recognize them. Thus, the above warning: Only use these data files IF YOU DO NOT ALREADY HAVE A WALLET.
