I apologize to the Bitcoin Development community, I am finally running a node. It was one of the easiest technical things (if you can even call a couple clicks technical) I have ever done.

I did post this on TwiX:

Sorry to even ask this, I am finally running a node and this is so damn basic. But to speed up the initial download/synching process, since the data is 100% static as of the past 10 minutes. Can't someone just zip up the ledger at a point in time, then download locally to underused CPUs/GPUs worldwide, unpack, then do a quick synch to catchup/synch in real time?

No different than how TurboTax does it on their (old) CDs or initial download and as the software/tax law changes you do updates? In this case, it's not software updating it's simply data.
