Snapshot

When a new node joins a network, it can use a snapshot — a compressed backup of the chain's data — to quickly synchronize with the current state. Snapshots expedite the process, reducing the need to download and verify every transaction from the beginning.

info

Choose a snapshot from the list and run the commands below. Don't forget to change snapshot_url.

sudo systemctl stop xiond

# make a backup
cp $HOME/.xiond/data/priv_validator_state.json $HOME/.xiond/priv_validator_state.json.backup 

# reset your node and download a snapshot
xiond tendermint unsafe-reset-all --home $HOME/.xiond --keep-addr-book 
wget <snapshot_url> | lz4 -dc - | tar -xf - -C $HOME/.xiond

# replace the priv_validator_state.json you have backed up
mv $HOME/.xiond/priv_validator_state.json.backup $HOME/.xiond/data/priv_validator_state.json 

sudo systemctl restart xiond && sudo journalctl -u xiond -f -o cat
