C:\Users\<put-your-username-here>\AppData\Roaming\LiteDoge\

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

# Max OS X

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
gen=0
testnet=0
allowreceivebyip=1
maxconnections=64
dns=1
checkpoints=1
dnsseed=1
rpcuser=any string of numbers and letters to make up a username like adbacbnk34533
rpcpassword=any password
addnode=108.95.86.140
addnode=122.173.31.90
addnode=154.246.247.104
addnode=154.57.7.131
addnode=174.84.66.125
addnode=176.92.158.133
addnode=185.220.100.252
addnode=185.236.200.18
addnode=195.46.187.110
addnode=24.18.45.238
addnode=46.223.163.38
addnode=67.173.133.238
addnode=68.134.231.97
addnode=71.196.70.246
addnode=71.84.23.132
addnode=87.116.165.147
addnode=87.123.244.103
addnode=87.123.244.98
addnode=88.78.111.11
addnode=95.217.77.209

Now restart your wallet and leave it on!
