Can't run on Ubuntu system？

Hi, yes you should be able to run from Ubuntu. Some Linux systems have python installed by default.

What you need to run from the directory after you download zip/master branch from github releases and unpack it:

1.

Code:

pip install pillow pyqrcode pypng pyinstaller web.py pycrypto simple-crypt

2.

Code:

pyinstaller --uac-admin --onefile --noconsole --log-level=INFO gui.py --icon=graphics\icon.ico
pyinstaller --uac-admin --onefile --log-level=INFO node.py --icon=graphics\icon.ico
pyinstaller --uac-admin --onefile --log-level=INFO miner.py --icon=graphics\icon.ico
pyinstaller --uac-admin --onefile --log-level=INFO ledger_explorer.py --icon=graphics\icon.ico --hidden-import=ledger_explorer

Then, you should be able to run your executable.
Alternatively, you can choose to run node/miner/gui.py directly without the second step (if you have pyhton installed).

I have installed pyhton,
But unable to execute wallet,
Please tell me how to do it, thank you

Please try one of these solutions:

Also, thanks for letting me know, might opt for a more integrated graphics handling in the future

Code:

python -m pip install Pillow

looks interesting

"generate QR code" I think does not work for Linux currently, but you may try this:

Code:

python -m pip install pyqrcode

I really want to have a Ubuntu system installation guide, I like this coin, but my system is Ubuntu, I can not run him. I think there are a lot of people with me.

[kellendil]

When will you guys launch the mainnet ?

If you are installing the dependencies on Ubuntu, you need to install as 'sudo'


example commands include;

sudo apt install python-pip
sudo pip install pillow pyqrcode pypng pyinstaller web.py pycrypto simple-crypt
sudo apt-get install python-tk

I have a node running on Ubuntu 16.04 and the executable successfully compiles (at least on my machine) using

pyinstaller --onefile --log-level=INFO node.py --icon=graphics\icon.ico

At some point (if I have time) I might write a guide for running on Ubuntu.

[HCLivess]

Hyperblock code is ready, will be released in the upcoming version. Since now, there will be an extra parameter in the config where you can choose if you want to run with hyperblocks or not.

If you do, all but the last 10000 blocks will be trimmed and transactions converted to outstanding balance.

This effectively means that your blockchain size will never grow over 10 MB + sum(transactions) - can be up to 100 MB or more if the network is highly used. Also, it anonymizes the historical transactions, so if you want to keep them, run without hyperblocks.

This is how it looks in GUI:

Thanks very much
I have successfully run the wallet

[HCLivess]

Thanks for the help with linux! I will paste these instructions on the first page/op.

Important

Just to let everyone know that due to the changes in the latest release both the desktop and web versions of my Bismuth tools no longer work.

I have withdrawn the repository on github so I can undertake a rebuild of the tools whilst at the same time make some security improvements.

I will inform you all once I have released the new versions.

[HCLivess]

Hello again, I found out that the transaction history handling was incomplete and caused balances to go more negative/positive with each restart. Apologies and here is the fixed version (hopefully final implementation of hyperblocks)

I had to bump up the version so that nobody loses anything (albeit testnet)

https://github.com/hclivess/Bismuth/releases/tag/2.03

Thanks for testing!

[HCLivess]

How do I mine with multiple computers to the same address?

I hope this coin does well
-Conscripted

You just copy the privkey.der and pubkey.der to the other computers and start mining. Mind you this is still testnet, main network will be released later this year

Will the coins that test the network mining be retained after the main network is released?

Thanks.  Is it possible to run the NODE program on one computer and mine from several others or do you have to have a node running on each machine?

Yes, it is possible if you change the mining IP in config. However, you will not be receiving the mempool so you always will mine empty blocks. In order to fix this, I would need to add mempool synchronization to miner, which is not a priority atm. Also your ledger will not synchronize where miner is so you will fork. It needs to be redesigned to work properly.

https://github.com/hclivess/Bismuth/issues/31

you could make a network path to the ledger.db, but mempool.db is hardcoded atm

not a priority at the moment, but you can put it together from the code which already is on github

[HCLivess]

I would like to boast about hyperblocks a little. Since I've read up this by Gavin http://gavinandresen.ninja/utxo-uhoh, I now know that unlike Bitcoin, Bismuth has no UTXO problems, because it uses a different approach. Another advantage is that Bismuth "light" nodes have the same functionality as Bitcoin full nodes and can confirm transactions without hassle.
