Instructions for changing the directory of the blockchain data for the defichain wallet

Procedure using Windows 10 as an example:

1. Make sure that the DeFiChain app is closed
2. Open directory C:\Users\<username>\.defi
3. Open the file defi.conf in text editor
4. add line: datadir=<storage directory blockchain data> Important: The line has to be added before the [main] chapter)
5. Example:

rpcauth=something rpcuser=something rpcpassword=something rpcpassword=something rpcpassword=something datadir=D:\defichain [main] wallet=Wallet.dat

5. Save file and start app
6. The app now recreates the blockchain folders in the datadir and will start with a complete download of the whole blockchain. (16.3.2021 ca. 25GB)

The app 2.3.1 does not work correctly with a moved directory.
