Blockchain folder

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

Procedure using Windows 10 as an example

1. open directory C:\Users\<username>\.defi
2. open file defi.conf in text editor
3. add line: datadir=<storage directory blockchain data> (example: datadir=D:\defichain) (Important: The line has to be added before the Main Chapter)
4. Example below
5. Save file and start wallet
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)

Attention, the app 2.3.1 does not work correctly with a moved directory.

Example:

rpcauth=something

rpcuser=something

rpcpassword=something

rpcbind=127.0.0.1

rpcport=8555

datadir=D:\defichain

[main]

wallet=Wallet.dat
