Is this still needed?

I believe since 0.10, trying to go the torrent path is slower than the headers-first and independent block download approach added to 0.10

You are correct:

Just added a note to the OP.

The Bitcoin Core client is faster and more secure and is the preferred option.

The torrent will continue to be updated periodically for academic research and development purposes, as some secondary usefulness does remain.

As there is almost impossible to find out a updated block chain with full transaction index I created one

Code:

Torrent info hash: F5D1BD85080DE489089AE35735C168604A378B86
Updated: 28 April 2015
Size: 28.6GB on RAR (40.8GB uncompressed)

File was created with the official bitcoin client and it contains "blocks" and "chainstate" folders, so just copy to your data folder and enjoy!

I will try to keep it updated (more often than the official block chain data torrent)

I might post direct links later.

Hi Aniscartujo,

Thank-you for taking time to create and share this, I know that their is already a torrent that is maintained by the community, I believe Jeff Garzik was the one who set it up.

Hello juju,

Yes, I know that there is a torrent maintained by the community, but it's never (or almost never) updated, the last one is from "August 2014" almost 10 months old...
So, as I was installing the bitcoin client on a server and only take me few clicks to compress/share it.. why not make it public? Maybe it can also save time to other users...

More info and old torrents:

Code:

Note: To avoid reindexing you must run the bitcoin client with transaction index enabled.
You can enable it by calling the executable file with the parameter "-txindex=1". (Or by creating a shortcut and adding that parameter)
Or, by modifying the "bitcoin.conf" file and adding a new line with this "txindex=1"
