 ### Bootstrap the Blockchain Synchronization
 
-Normally the Bitcoin client will download the transaction and network information, called the blockchain, from the network by syncing with the other clients. This can be a process that can take multiple days as the [Bitcoin block chain](https://blockchain.info/charts/blocks-size) has grown to more than 15 gigabytes, and is growing almost a gigabyte every month. Luckily there is a safe and fast way to speed up this process. We’ll show you how to bootstrap your blockchain to bring your client up to speed in just a few simple steps.
+Normally the Bitcoin client will download the transaction and network information, called the blockchain, from the network by syncing with the other clients. This process can take quite some time as the [Bitcoin blockchain](https://blockchain.info/charts/blocks-size) is growing bigger and bigger for each day. Luckily there is a safe and fast way to speed up this process. We'll show you how to bootstrap your blockchain to bring your client up to speed in just a few simple steps.
 
 ### Requirements
 
 - A fresh install of the Bitcoin client software.
 
-### Download the blockchain via Bittorent
+### Download the blockchain via BitTorrent
 
-Jeff Garzik, Bitcoin core developer, offers an [torrent file](https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=145386.0) for bootstrapping purposes that is updated often. Bittorrent is a protocol that speeds up the downloading of large files by using the other clients in the network. Examples of free and safe open-source clients are [Deluge](http://deluge-torrent.org/) or [QBittorent](http://www.qbittorrent.org/). A guide to installing and configuring the torrent clients can be found [here](http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/UserGuide) for Deluge and [here](http://qbforums.shiki.hu/) for QBittorent. A further in-depth tutorial on Bittorent can be found [here](http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/31846/bittorrent-for-beginners-how-get-started-downloading-torrents/).

 The download page should look like this, with a countdown to the download. If it does not work click the direct download link.
 
-The torrent client installed will recognize the download of the torrent file. Save the bootstrap.dat file to a folder you use for downloads. The image below shows the torrent download in QBittorent, with current speed and ETA highlighted.

-### Download the block chain directly from official repositories
-The Bittorent version, see above, of the block chain download is refreshed more often than the direct download available. If Bittorent is blocked on your network then you can use the direct download method. Be sure to only use official repositories as the link displayed below. This download will only update the client to March 2013.

 ### Importing the blockchain
-Exit the Bitcoin Client software if you have it running. Be sure not to have an actively used wallet in use. We are going to copy the download of the blockchain to the Bitcoin client data directory. You should run the client software at least once so it can generate the data directory. Copy the downloaded bootstrap.dat file into the Bitcoin data folder.

 ### Is this safe?
 
-Yes, the above method is safe. The download contains only raw block chain data and the client verifies this on import. Do not download the blockchain from unofficial sources, especially if they provide `*.rev` and `*.sst` files. These files are not verified and can contain malicious edits.
