 ### Why is my "final sync" taking so long?
 
 First of all if you see a final sync over 90% and you can see from time to time small increase - you should be OK ... this can take a looong time to catch up with the network. Only in the case that you actively choose the `SYNC` option in the `Getting the Blockchain` is a final sync under 90% OK. If you did a torrent or a copy from another computer and you are seeing under 90% something went wrong, and the setup process is ignoring your prepared Blockchain and doing a full sync - which can almost take forever on a raspberryPi.

 ### What is this mnemonic seed word list?
 
 With the 24 word list given you by LND upon wallet creation you can recover your private key. You should write it down and store it at a safe place. Bear in mind that *this 24 word mnemonic seed is not based on the BIP 39* and therefore cannot be recovered using a Bitcoin wallet.
