Geth syncing is stuck for several hours. I want to delete my blockchain using geth removedb. Will this affect my account? Will my balance become zero?

  • The reason this won't delete your account is because your balance, and everyone else's, is stored on each copy of the data that sits on each of the 25,000 nodes across the planet :)

No

As long as you control your private keys, your balance will not be affected. You will see your full balance when the syncing is finished.
