LiteDoge data directory

Location of the data directory depends on your operating system:

# Windows XP
C:\Documents and Settings\<put-your-username-here>\Application Data\LiteDoge\

# Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 10
C:\Users\<put-your-username-here>\AppData\Roaming\LiteDoge\

# Linux
/home/<put-your-username-here>/.litedoge/

# Max OS X
/Users/<put-your-username-here>/Library/Application Support/LiteDoge/

Bootstrapping or Snapshot file help

Adding snapshot files, or a bootstrap file to the blockchain LDOGE directory.
If you are in hurry, you can fast forward syncing by downloading the LiteDoge blockchain and bootstrapping or snapshotting it. Make sure your wallet is closed. Download the snapshot files and unpack it replacing everything except `wallet.dat` and `litedoge.conf` in your data directory, or use the bootstrap and just download only the single file called bootstrap.dat and add it to the same directory as you would add the snapshot files and restart the wallet. This time syncing should take only less than hour to complete!

Close LiteDoge wallet before bootstrapping or snapshotting!

Resolve sync issues by adding nodes to litedoge.conf

In the LiteDoge directory save a TXT file to where the blockchain is stored, and rename a file as litedoge.conf in your data directory and add following lines to speed up syncing:

server=1
listen=1
port=17014
rpcport=17015
maxconnections=8
gen=0
dns=1
testnet=0
allowreceivebyip=1
dnsseed=1
rpcuser=any string of numbers and letters to make up a username like adbacbnk34533
rpcpassword=any password
addnode=46.4.37.190
addnode=134.255.218.110
addnode=213.133.99.84
addnode=66.214.14.254
addnode=73.120.71.189
addnode=108.21.75.150
addnode=71.197.143.70
addnode=188.153.14.20
addnode=23.152.0.212
addnode=167.160.36.7
addnode=198.245.50.213
addnode=85.24.143.58
addnode=176.9.140.80
addnode=85.169.119.40
addnode=50.142.213.254
addnode=192.52.167.158
addnode=45.50.58.160
addnode=24.76.220.10
addnode=174.102.232.161
addnode=82.44.44.253
addnode=68.36.216.167
addnode=76.18.225.234
addnode=98.193.5.149
addnode=173.68.191.206
addnode=24.44.96.51
addnode=86.205.155.158

Now restart your wallet and leave it on!
