Hello, we're looking for 5 beta testers for the new release of FootyCash. Ideally, we would have a few that want to run masternodes and a few regular clients. I'll send some beta test coins to the first five to respond. Post your address after setting up the new client. Post one for your masternide and one for your regular client.
Installing the new client will not overwrite your current client, they will be in different blockchains. Still, it doesn't hurt to backup your current setup.
It will take up to 24 hours before your coins begin staking, so be patient. It takes 15 confirmations for your masternode to begin running, so please be patient.
The current setup is 60 blocks with .5 block reward split 1/3 to staker and 2/3 to master node. This will add approximately 250k per year. The beta test blockchain will be blown away after the test, so these beta test coins will vanish when we go live.
I'm heading to my day job now in Australia time, and will send coins when I am able to to get the beta started.
Here is a direct link to the windows wallet download for the beta test:
https://github.com/clifer/FootyCashV2/releases/download/v2.0.0.1-Beta/footycash-qt-windows.zipIn case you want to compile, the source code is at
https://github.com/clifer/FootyCashV2You will need these addnodes for now until dns seed is setup:
addnode=footycash.com:17017
addnode=footycash.com:27017
----------------------------------------------
Masternode instructions:
Local masternode setup option A
This is the easy way. I'll write up instructions for option B remote control later
1. Start wallet normally and get 100% synced.
2. in console type: "masternode genkey" - and save the output for use in a later step
3. in console type: "getaccountaddress 0" - this is the address where exactly 5000 coins should be sent
4. send exactly 5000 coins to the address from step 3. the masternode needs 15 confirmations on the 5000 coin transaction before it will work, but the remaining steps can be completed now
4. shutdown wallet
5. add this to footycash.conf - the directory name is FootyCashV2, so it doesn't conflict with current client:
rpcuser=<your rpc user name that you choose>
rpcpassword=<your rpc user password that you choose>
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
#----
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
staking=0
#--------------------
masternode=1
masternodeaddr=your IP address:your port
masternodeprivkey=the output from step 2
6. restart the client
7. in console type: "masternode start <YOUR_WALLET_PASSWORD>"
you only need the password if you have encrypted the wallet
you may have to run this more than once if the transaction doesn't have 15 confirmations yet
