Hello everybody
When I install new bitcoin-qt, it take 1 week or more time to sync network
What way fast sync network more, like 1 day?
Thanks

if you want fast sync then you should try other light version wallets like multibit,electrum
bitcoin-qt blockchain is very big in size and sync with network will take time depending on your network downloading speed

i use multi bit and it took around 19 hours to sync which isnt too bad

Multibit verifies only the blockheader which makes it significantly faster but it is weird that it took 19 hours. It is possible that you have a weak CPU, HDD and internet connection but that is quite long.

Another, often ignored, issue when syncing the blockchain is your actual CPU quality. When I used to run bitcoincore on my AMD C-50 APU (passmark scores approx ~350) it would take nearly a week to sync. Just recently I downloaded and synced the blockchain on a freshly compiled copy of bitcoin-core using a cpu approximately 10 times better (i5 dual core) and I was able to sync in approximately 1.5 days. The network is the same, the difference is that this computer does the validations stuff a lot faster than the C-50.

Another aspect to take note of is the HDD speed. Since they are ran on different computers, they may have different HDDs.

I may write code in exchange for bitcoins.

There is no way to sync any faster. Just wait, and it will be synced. You only need to sync it once.

If you are speaking about the message on the green progress-bar then no it won't take long if it's actually taking that much then there is nothing to do about it

i think you could download a bootstrap of the block chain, just gotta find one

This is useless since the latest releases of the Bitcoin core version , it's sync faster then before and the bootstrap became useless like i said .
