Where can I get a wallet for Linux?
|
|
|
|

I'm using the Linux wallet and am able to sync pretty well.
Am working on putting a snapshot together.
I've also noticed that it eats a LOT of memory which I think is very unusual.
@8-Bit-Party
Can you look into why the daemon uses so much memory (at times on my Linux system it wants over 1 GB of memoy)? Other mn coins like DAS use as little as 50 mb.

Stopped client. Grabbed all of the files I needed then used "cat" command to create one bootstrap.dat file. Put this in the ".clam" folder with my wallet.dat.
Restarted client, but it's not using the bootstrap.dat... just still loading slowly as normal... on a Linux system. Am I missing something?
It needs to be called "bootstrap.dat" all in lower case, and put in the same directory as the CLAM wallet.dat - it's ~/.clam/ by default on Linux. %APPDATA%/CLAM/ maybe on Windows. Yes, that is what I named it, and that is the dir I put it in... still no go. |

Stuck trying to sync the client. Already downloaded and imported the bootstrap file and added the node list provided by Miner2525 above. This got me close but I am still 4 weeks behind with no connections. Also added nodes at http://www.presstab.pw/phpexplorer/CLAM/nodes.phpAny suggestions or nodes that are always up? I just updated my bootstrap post. Now it goes up to block 1629500 which was staked on Sat Aug 5 23:18:40 UTC 2017. You can also download partial bootstrap files which contain 10,000 blocks each - so you can get just the blocks you're missing, pretty much. See my original bootstrap post for details. As for your node not finding peers, I just noticed my seeding node was down. I've rebooted it, so maybe try again now. It might "just work". Finally, here are the top 10 nodes according to my seeder: 31.204.128.80:31174
74.207.230.61:31174
220.239.41.71:31174
98.18.252.73:31174
213.239.208.169:31174

Anyone had a successful withdrawal from Cryptopia?
Yes, I was able to successfully withdraw coins from Cryptopia today. Did you "masternode.conf" setup work with qt-wallet? Yes. |

Ok, so I'm getting confused trying to understand all the rules here...
The signature was about the only one I qualified for, so I have set it up, but now I'm seeing that it's not valid??
Can someone clarify? Also, when will the wallet be available (i'm running Linux and will compile my own)?
Thanks.

Thanks for that... I tried what you said...
Copied text into file
Put file in 8bit dir
ran command: patch src/bitcoind.cpp 8bit.patch
Got this error message:
$patch src/bitcoind.cpp 8bit.patch
patching file src/bitcoind.cpp
patch: **** malformed patch at line 6: #include "rpcserver.h"
Any idea what I did wrong?
That is strange, I tried to do this from scratch (cloned the repository from https://bitbucket.org/8bitcoin/8bit.git, then applied the patch) - and it worked perfectly. Probably some wrong symbol squeezed into the file when you copied it from forum. Tried to just manually update the code... all seemed to compile ok, but when I load 8bit-qt and go to debug console... masternode list-conf, still comes back empty and masternode start-many doesn't start any nodes (have checked, all conf files should be correct).
I actually used that patch about one year ago to run 10-15 masternodes, and it worked perfectly. You should check if you do everything correctly... I used "8bitd" though, not 8bit-qt, but it should not make difference. Which directory did you put your masternode.conf in? Check the filename - should be all lowercase. If that doesn't help - run the "strace -f 8bitd" and look for the line where it opens "masternode.conf" (search "masternode.conf" in the output) - see what the function returns there. I would be happy to help, but it's hard to do without actual access to your server. So it does appear to work if I stick with just the 8bitd, but doesn't work with 8bit-qt. Any ideas? Oh. I have never used the Linux QT wallet, so didn't test it. Then maybe this could help additionally for QT wallet: diff --git a/src/qt/bitcoin.cpp b/src/qt/bitcoin.cpp

But this is completely untested change (I cannot even compile at the moment), so this is mostly to give you an idea on which direction to dig into  Gave the code a try and it seemed to work like a charm... But now, when I run either the 8bitd or the GUI, it just eats memory like crazy, getting up to taking up 3 Gig per process till I have to kill it... also just stuck at block 1010219. Any idea what's going on? FYI, just ran the old executable... same problem. Noticed that Cryptopia wallet now open. Seems odd... are you having any issues? |

Anyone else stuck on block 1010219?
Just sitting there and not going anywhere...

So is there still no working blockchain explorer for 8bit? Without a working block explorer, we'll never get very far. We need a working block explorer (preferably one with an api), this will really show exchanges we're serious. Wish I had the technical know-how to build it...

What is the name of the masternode.conf file?
I tried creating a masternode.conf file, but when I go the console and type in: masternode list-conf it comes back empty.
Trying to run masternodes on vps with a controller wallet that has all the coins. Anyone doing this?
As 8-bit-party said - check the last pages of the thread Here is the patch I posted few weeks back: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1028119.msg20238850#msg20238850It is specifically made to fix masternode.conf support.

@8-Bit-Party... has this capability been removed? If so, can it be put back in? Thanks. |

Hosting multiple MN on one VPS is not in the interest of the network.
The network needs distribution to flourish. Which means all a y'all miserly bastards need to pay up for that single VPS per MN.
You'll save 20$ a month by hosting 5 MN on one VPS. Is saving 20$ a month really worth risking your future as a DAS holder?
DAS atm has a high enough ROI to let you profit even when running each MN on a separate VPS. Don't be the Scrooge McDuck in the room. Get them nodes running all around the globe.
sure you can run multiple MNs on one IP but each IP only gets rewards for 1 masternode so the rewards will be split up amongst however many MNs are on that one IP the MNs here are still so cheap So you're saying that if a mn pays 5 das per day and I decide to run 2 mn from one ip, I will only get 2.5 das per mn? |

So are masternodes based on GPU power or just having them up. Trying to figure out if it is worth it to run it on my main pc and keep my pc running all the time.
Just having them up. It's kind of like the middle man you help the network and you get paid for it. So technically at this price you'd only get around $13 a month running one. However for every new decimal place the master nodes payout will do so too if it was $1.15 each it'd be 130. $13.15 ea it would be 1300. and so on and so forth. So should I buy a raspberry pi and do it on that? My pc is a beast and draws a lot of power if I left it on 24/7. Yeah it should be sufficient enough to do that. Just make sure you use Ubuntu because all other Linux distros are a pain to get up and running. Also if you plan to use wifi to run it make sure you have a good USB Wifi adapter they work like a charm. Or... you can run it on an AWS EC2 server. Free for the first 12 months, then about $2 to $4 per month. Also Vultr offers servers at about $3 per month. Pretty easy to set up and then you don't have to worry about buying anything. |
