Snapshot download

Syncing a fresh new node will take quite a while. You may download and use the following snapshots. 
After you download the .tgz file, you can untar it into ~/.opera (or any path of your choice). Then you can run opera command with the default datadir ~/.opera (or specify --datadir <path>, if you'd like to use a custom path).
Non-pruned datadir
Non-pruned snapshot can be used to set up: (1) a read node, (2) a full archive API node, or (3) a validator node.

Steps
Steps to download snapshot and untar:
mkdir ~/download
cd ~/download
# then download the tgz, then untar
tar zxvf <tgz_file>

#[Option 1: if ~/download/.opera contains chaindata folder only]
# remove ~/.opera/chaindata if it exists
mv ~/download/chaindata ~/.opera

#[Option 2: if ~/download/.opera contains chaindata and other subfolders]
#remove ~/.opera if it exists, make sure you backup the keystore folder.
# then move the untarred .opera into a path 
mv ~/download/.opera ~/.opera

You can also download md5 checksum file <tgz_file>.md5.
