Title: Bitcoin on Ubuntu 14.04 Post by: pawel252 on April 21, 2014, 06:29:17 PM Hi
Does anyone know how to install official BTC client on Ubuntu 14.04? Thx Title: Re: Bitcoin on Ubuntu 14.04 Post by: BookLover on April 23, 2014, 02:27:44 AM Add the Bitcoin Ubuntu PPA repository in your Ubuntu Code: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin Code: sudo apt-get update Code: sudo apt-get install bitcoin-qt Just copy and past the code into terminal and you should have the latest version of bitcoin-qt. If you prefer not to use a PPA you can download the latest linux client from here:http://bitcoin.org/en/download (http://bitcoin.org/en/download). Just decompress the .tgz file and you've got the latest version of bitcoin-qt.

Could i put a wallet like Electrum on there? Title: Re: Bitcoin on Ubuntu 14.04 Post by: viriat0 on April 23, 2014, 03:14:04 PM Try:
Quote mkdir ~/bitcoin-qt cd ~/bitcoin-qt wget https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.1/bitcoin-0.9.1-linux.tar.gz tar -xvzf bitcoin-0.9.1-linux.tar.gz mv bitcoin-0.9.1-linux/bin/64/* ~/bitcoin-qt chmod +x bitcoin-* good luck Title: Re: Bitcoin on Ubuntu 14.04 Post by: BookLover on April 23, 2014, 07:56:31 PM It is possible but not really practical to put Bitcoin Core on a flash drive. Why is it not really practical? Could i put a wallet like Electrum on there? I may have misunderstood your first question. Did you mean put Bitcoin Core on a flash drive and leave the blockchain on your computer or put both on the flash drive? I answered the latter question. If you meant the first option you can just extract the .tgz file to a flash drive like viriat0 said. |
