Hello.

I have been trying to get a snapshot for a while now, but snapshots.lbry.com has been returning 522 errors for over a week now. Looks like Cloudflare is being used as a CDN for the snapshots, and it is having problems connecting to the backend.

Trying to get this file: https://snapshots.lbry.com/blockchain/blockchain_snapshot_914289_v0.17.3.2_2021-02-16.tar.bz2

However, after digging around in this repository for a little bit, I realized that these files are stored on S3. So I am currently in the process of downloading the file from https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/snapshots.lbry.com/blockchain/blockchain_snapshot_914289_v0.17.3.2_2021-02-16.tar.bz2

Maybe you should consider releasing these over bittorrent instead? Along with a gpg signature or something.

Thanks!

Edit

I am getting better download speeds with the aws cli:

aws s3 cp s3://snapshots.lbry.com/blockchain/blockchain_snapshot_914289_v0.17.3.2_2021-02-16.tar.bz2 . --no-sign-request

@lyoshenka Thanks! And I think it would be a great idea to investigate using BitTorrent to distribute these snapshots. And maybe gpg sign them as well.
