I don't know what happen to my wallet but it start syncing again from start after I opened it 4 days ago, and it's still syncing for the past 4 days (24hrs/day)and there is still 29 weeks left.
Is there a faster way to sync the blockchain?

Thanks for the offer, but it will take you hours even days uploading that folder, I don't want to trouble you.
If there is existing reliable updated chain on the web that I can download, please post the info., Thanks :)

yea you are right .
just checked and the unzipped folder is 5.5 gb ...and i only have a 100kb upload speed...lol rip
here is a thread that might help though it hasnt been updated for a while
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,16510.0.html
maybe ask fav for an update
http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/BitShares/Chain-Server
I used "46.226.109.66:1375" last time
Yes, please try Chain Server as advised by xeroc. I think the new wackou's bts backbone should have some decent Chain Server nodes providing fast blockchain download. Do check out https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,13837.msg230185.html#msg230185
Same to me when I tried to sync recently. I even stuck at a block (fork?) and did not move any more.
So I deleted the chain folder (don't delete the wallet folder), and resync from the beginning. Try to use bitshares_client instead of the GUI version, try to specify the chain server in config.json. It finally synced overnight. In any case, backup you wallet before you do anything.
Thanks for the info.
I noticed in bitshares_client, when it's in fast sync and you type any command or your RAM become low the fast-sync get interrupted and it sync in standard way.
This is the reason why I sync too slow.
Hi there,
When bitshares_client gets stuck on a block, is there any other solution besides deleting the chain folder and resyncing from the beginning?
My bitshares_client is stuck at block 3562924. Before that it ran smoothly for several weeks.
>>> get_info
{
"blockchain_head_block_num": 3562924,
"blockchain_head_block_age": "46 hours old",
"blockchain_head_block_timestamp": "2015-09-11T22:49:50",
...
Thanks.
You do run the most recent version 0.9.2??
edit: seeing that you only lack some 48h, I would assume that your peers are old .. you can either wait for the client to get new peers from the P2P network or delegate the peers_leveldb folder in %APPDATA%\BitShares to get fresh peers from the seed nodes
