  • Why is my blockchain data size smaller than what BitInfoCharts tells me?
    Because "fast sync" only gets block headers and block bodies. It processes no transactions until current block - 1024.Then it gets a snapshot state and goes like a full synchronization. TL;DR you will still get a copy of the whole blockchain with "fast sync". To learn more on this, I suggest googling "pruned vs. archived blockchain". Or go here.

  • Where is the blockchain data stored?
    By default, it is stored in ./ethereum under /root. To access it, you will need to launch File Manager in super user mode with the command sudo pcmanfm.
