I followed the setup tutorial to get a Windows wallet and Linux Masternode server running.
You're supposed to click on Tools -> Masternode Configuration File so you can link the wallet app to the masternode, but clicking on the button doesn't do anything.
What's the name supposed to be for the Windows wallet masternode config file?
While I'm here, a couple of things...
- Each time I have to restart the Windows wallet it takes a minimum of 20 minutes before I can access it.
- Getting the 50K GLT into the Masternode wallet was no small task. It took me 3 hours to:
1. Find an exchange that had GLT and served customers in the USA.
2. Get signed up and authenticated (KYC) so I could use the exchange.
3. Move BTC from my main wallet to the exchange.
4. Make the trade from BTC to GLT.
5. and finally move the 50K GLT to my masternode wallet.
If the hope is to eventually get the general population to start using crypto as their everyday currency, things are going to have to improve A LOT. Dealing with any crypto at this point is an exercise in hoop jumping and just a general pain in the .... Until it becomes seamlessly easy to move from Fiat to Crypto and back no matter what coin, it's only going to remain useful to those of us that mine and trade it.
At this point, just to keep up with the number of coins I deal with, I have 7 wallet apps and have signed up on 8 exchanges. This can't be what was originally intended for digital currency...

Sorry, needed to get that out of my system. It's been a rough week.
[UPDATE]
I managed to get the Linux masternode and Windows wallet synched by editing the conf files by hand and restarting them both. Even with the conf files created, the wallet app still can't seem to open the config file. It can't even open it's own config file.

The easiest way to run the wallet is now with a snap!
snap install globaltoken
Then search for "globaltoken" and run the application!
