Cardano Node Sync stuck

Oh, that seems to be much easier on MacOS than on Linux.

On Linux, they provide a NixOS environment and you have to chroot into that. But that’s what I’m doing here:

Sorry, thought I’d spare you that information, since we had so many construction sites already going.

Attention: If you use that cardano-cli it’s an older version. Bundled with Daedalus is 1.30.1. And they changed the treatment of token names in 1.31.0. So, you do not need and do not want the base16 conversion in that version. In --mint and --tx-out you just write the token name in cleartext, instead.

I’ve run into that, when first trying it out.

Attention 2: Next week, there will be an update and Daedalus will ship 1.33.0 and Attention 1 will no longer hold, it will convert the chain for several hours, but afterwards will use less disk space.
