The Role of HashKey Cloud in Bitcoin Data Synchronization

HashKey Cloud will help with the initial synchronization of the first 840,000 Bitcoin blocks as part of the exSat initialization process. This will establish the fundamental consensus for the exSat Protocol. This important activity is essential for the exSat network’s initial synchronization and operational readiness. To properly launch network operations, this stage is crucial.
