Is there anywhere I can download the entire blockchain in the zipped?

I want the same. My internet speed is not that good and it would be easy for me to download the whole file in zipped form. please help me

There are 2 options currently with Geth:

1) On a fresh install you can enable fast blockchain download for a clean install or re-install: "--fast"

2) Then for normal running, increasing the cache size from default cache size of 128MB, you can boost internet speeds by 50% by using "--cache=1024".

You'll can look through this post for tips, for people who cannot buy a faster internet connection:

http://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/4293/is-there-a-quicker-way-then-geth-fast-to-download-the-ethereum-blockchain

And, there are plenty of youtube tutorials covering those more advanced options for Ethereum's Geth client.

Using Ubuntu 16.04LTS:

I simply saved the "Keystore" folder (where all you're wallets are), before doing anything.

Deleted everything related for 0.8.2 (except for "Keystore" folder, which was saved to a temporary location and a USB drive).

Installed 0.8.3 and downloaded the entire bockchain (only takes 40 minutes to download the entire blockchain on Ubuntu 16.04LTS).

Closed 0.8.3 down.

Moved my "Keystore" folder back to hidden Ethereum folder in the Home directory.

Re-ran 0.8.3 and everything was as shinny new Smiley

I do re-download the blockchain, when there is a major mandatory update, as regular routine with all crypto wallets.

Thanks for the love from Shanghai, we love you back.

Thanks for the laugh from Shanghai, copied from another thread:

This will not effect Ethereum supporters.  They have faith.  Ethereum is a belief system not unlike religion.  Moreover, they are all ready and willing to commit financial suicide and/or cryptojihad for their cryptofaith and, their almighty leader Vitalik Buterin (Peace be upon him).  
This religious DETH CULT will soon be having its annual Devcon pilgrimage / cryptohajj.  Ether People will travel from far and wide to Shanghai next week for the religious festival.  They feel nothing can stop them.

This is the 21st Century man.  The world turnd to shit.  Government are loosing control, the middle east is torn apart by proxy war, the fiat financial systems are crumbling. People need to believe in something!

Welcome to the first Church of Appliantology "Ethereum".

You really don't have any Ethereum or any interest in ETH!

It was a message on Github - from yesterday's patch release for the Geth client from the developers.

"Love from Shanghai", and Shanghai is the location of DEVCON2.

And, people were touched by the message on Github and have been posting messages with love.

Devcon2 update, plus explanation of last night's attack on Ethereum.


Ethereum was not attacked, only the fork was in trouble.

https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/53fbi0/geth_1412_from_shanghai_with_love_hotfix_for/?st=itb524wg&sh=f28b10af

Parity is rock solid, kept the network alive during a major crisis (especially given the timing) and prevented a panic.

The Geth developers are nothing less than unreal. The time it took them to respond and deliver couldn't be matched even by the likes of google or apple.

Also a big shout out to all of us, the community for keeping our calm and actually being helpful by not panicking, by switching to a working client and by not putting extra pressure to the shoulders of the developers.

I think most non-devs don't get how extraordinary it is to have such a fast and committed response from devs.

This is what sets Ethereum apart in my mind. Yes, it is open source, but it also has professional and committed visionaries behind it.

Thanks for the love from Shanghai, we love you back.
