How can I re-sync the blockchain?
Close any Cirquity
related software, then go to %APPDATA%
, and delete the Cirquity
folder.
Reopen cirquityd

Re-sync your wallet from scratch
Using Desktop GUI
- Backup your wallet then close your GUI Wallet
- Delete the
.wallet
file - Then open the GUI Wallet and re-import your wallet. It should start counting up the blocks and printing out your transactions as it gets to them.
I've opened the wallet, and I'm getting lots of messages like "Your cirquityd isn't fully synced yet!"
Until you are fully synced, you won’t be able to send transactions, and your balance may be missing or incorrect!
Your daemon hasn't finished syncing yet. Keep cirquity-wallet open, and wait until you are 0
days behind the current block, and for the daemon to print out a green message saying Successfully synchronized with the Cirquity Network
.
You can also type status in the daemon and press enter to see the current height it's at.
