DAY 8

Almost forgot to report because I was tired on holiday. Let's just say I'm sticking to the forum time, because maybe the date in the bottom corner will be a little different from the daily count here. Tongue

I doubt it has pruned at all because at first I set it to 20GB, then 400GB, and currently 500GB.

Why? You'll have all the drawbacks of pruning (like not being able to rescan or import), without much of the benefits (half a TB less disk consumption).

Currently the Bitcoin folder is 405GB so it hasn’t reached pruning yet, and I will likely increase it as it approaches the limit I set. With that, I’m looking at 575GB as you said, which means I have 170GB more to download. Calculations right?

So you have 29.6% to go. That means your progress estimate is too optimistic.

I am wondering how and why it’s already that close but the percentage is just about 82%. Does it mean that about 18% of these blocks to be downloaded were created just in 2023?

Based on your block numbers, you have 7.5% of the blocks left to download. But recent blocks are larger than average blocks, and I guess the progress indicator accounts for that. My up-to-date blocks directory is 575GB, but you can't compare it if you're pruning.

But pruning means to limit the storage space it uses, right? Even if I have set pruning, I doubt it has pruned at all because at first I set it to 20GB, then 400GB, and currently 500GB.

Already in November 2022. I am wondering how and why it’s already that close but the percentage is just about 82%. Does it mean that about 18% of these blocks to be downloaded were created just in 2023?

After 16 long days, with countless internet issue, slow bandwidth speed, load shedding etc etc etc, it's finally synced. Feels great actually. Kind of an achievement for me.

Where is everyone else Huh

All you have to do is run a node and get it synced - no strings attached.

If this is still open Will setup my system later today and join the "Run A Bitcoin Node challenge"

Though from the looks of this looks like that 1000merit barrier sent users watching from the fence, but challenge accepted.

Bitcoin core downloaded

and now waiting for the pre sync to be done and should see some progress...25 weeks to go Roll Eyes

Let the fight for Ram begin....Chrome just joined the chat Grin
