Chia VS cointop

I needed make a question regarding the chia GUI installation on a raspberry pi 4. Sometimes the sync gets stuck for me so I go ahead and do a clean install, and use the mainnet db checkpoint from chia.net. Source: 9 months ago

They host a snapshot of the db on chia.net so you no longer have to do a full sync so you could just grab the v2 and manually update the rest of the way which shouldn't take too long (not sure on the exact time I surmise less than a day or 2- its a long time since I've had to do a resync).

Yes please upgrade. you have missed a lot. install the latest version from chia.net. upgrade your database HERE. Check your wallet for a Chia Friend. Source: about 1 year ago

How is this any different than hosting the db on chia.net or github? it's still a single authority saying what the db consists of. Source: about 1 year ago

I know what you're saying and technically correct, but for all practical reasons the one on chia.net is the "official". Source: over 1 year ago

I don't own any cryptocurrencies but I find it fun to observe. Try using Cointop, it's a command-line tool that works really well. Source: about 3 years ago
