I have read EVERY post on "How-to" set up the wallet, I have tried on Mac, PC (regular wallet and flavoured wallet), and no matter what I get stuck at block 8234...
I have inserted the Sync.conf file during every attempt, inserted the bootstrap during every attempt, still no luck...
I have over 10 SYNC and would really like to take advantage of the 100% interest stake/year.
If someone is willing to help me out, I will be more than happy to send that individual 0.01 SYNC.
Help a brother out!
Did you try just doing a clean install without all the other bullshit, that worked for me. I now have three wallets going and they all work fine. Just do a clean install open and close when it gets stuck. I added the .conf after everything was already synced to get more connections. I also found that I got more connections if i only used the nodes the dev posted in the op and not the long list of nodes, i think some of them are not good nodes.
