它确实是一次下载 500 个区块,然后计数器在逐个验证区块时一个一个数。

让 bitcoin 自己下载并验证区块的好处是:你不用信任你从谁那里下载。如果从某个网站下载 blk*.dat 文件,你就得信任那个网站,因为你是未经自己验证就接受了数据。如果是从你自己的另一台电脑上拷 blk*.dat,那没问题。

你的初始区块下载一般要多久?

英文原文

It does in fact download 500 blocks at a time, then the counter counts one at a time as it verifies the blocks.

The advantage of letting bitcoin download and verify the blocks is that you do not have to trust the person you're downloading them from.  If you downloaded the blk*.dat files from some site, you would have to trust that site, since you would be accepting the data without verifying it yourself.  If you're copying blk*.dat from another computer of yours, that should be fine.

How long is the initial block download taking for you?
