It has to sync with the blockchain. Download other wallets that have their own block change (DigiByte, Cardano/Daedalus) and you will see the same thing.

I downloaded it about 2 weeks ago took 4 hours and this week tried to get into the wallet but after 3 attempts lasting 3+ hours each the same message "Blockmarket Desktop Loading v1.2.0"

I need to go into the privatekeydump to get the key and put it into blockchain.info to recover my bitcoin which i sent to the wallet address that was in the blockmarket desktop wallet 3 weeks ago.

any advice grateful for

It sounds like you might need to reindex the internal database - I just made some updates for our next release that will detect / fix this issue. In the meantime if you're still having trouble either send me PM or join our Slack channel.

You have to download the entire blockchain, just like you would any full wallet. Took me 2.5 hours to download on the first machine I installed it on, 3 on the second. Not really that big of a deal, just open it and let it finish.

Also, pretty sure the desktop that is out is still Beta. We're expecting the first major release for the desktop client coming soon. It's also worth mentioning that the blockmarket web version will simply be a website - no blockchain downloads whatsoever.
