Is there a easy guide to follow to forge?

Heatledger cryptocurrency server.

To install and run heatledger you need Java JDK 1.8 or higher installed, note that JDK is different from standard java distributions.

On ubuntu we use sudo apt-get install default-jdk package. For other platforms please look here http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html

For configuration settings see the conf/heat.properties files in the installation folder.

We're working to deploy downloadable client + server package with graphical forging UI on github before the forging rewards start paying on block 4320.

Meanwhile another, still technical way to set up forging:

Get JDK SE from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html
(Click accept license agreement radiobutton first)

Download and unzip https://github.com/Heat-Ledger-Ltd/heatledger/releases

Define your own apikey, can be whatever string of characters, in conf/heat-default.properties

Start heatledger (Linux) or heatledger.bat (Windows)

run from command line the following after first making applicable changes to it:

Code:

curl -k -s http://localhost:7733/api/v1/mining/start/this%20is%20your%20secret%20phrase\?api_key=defined_in_heat-default.properties

If you don't have curl, download from the curl site

Here is a nice realtime forging compilation page! Gives you perspective.

This is great, thanks for sharing! Who is the author?

The author is a synace, you can meet synace in HEAT-slack.

Hey all, I'm the one running the current "forge report". I built it for myself to have a better understanding of the "ROI" for forging. If you have any requests/suggestions, let me know. I'll improve it in iterations as I have time. I'm a pretty small investor, but I've got technical abilities.

Gladly accepting tips at 7052876572805488467 if you enjoy the report!

@lurker10 I added my address to myPlatform, but I'd rather see you use hallmark. GET http://localhost:7733/api/v1/tools/hallmark/decode/__HALLMARK__ to decode and get 'address' property from there. You can get "peers" from GET http://localhost:7733/api/v1/peer/all/3?api_key=__YOUR_KEY__

HEAT node operators need to put the HEAT account id in the heat.myPlatform setting

That's cool, the script will reward hallmark weight too, as well as those who have no hallmark. You still need to have the heat.myPlatform though to identify the node to receive rewards.
Problem is there may be no sponsors. It looks like forging is a sufficient incentive to run nodes, their number has been growing.

[synace]

looks like only 3 nodes w/ positive weight:

Code:

10432 185.12.44.108
6078  188.241.68.142
24    54.221.26.215

Got this message "heatledger: 158: heatledger: Syntax error: "(" unexpected" . Anyone can elaborate ? Also is there an autoinvite for slack ?

That's very nice ROI.
Where is the pos & pop rewards coming from? Newly minted coins??

Hi guys,

Did anyone get the following output when starting?

Code:

http://localhost:7733/api/v1/mining/info/passphrase?api_key=blabla
[{"deadline":0,"account":"23498739847239847","remaining":0,"hitTime":0}]

Wonder why I see deadline 0 and hitTime 0...

[Basguy]

So say I bought my heat on CCEX, withdrawal isn't allowed right? So is it worth even holding if I'm missing out on Foraging?

I don't know this for sure.  But I think it's right.

There is usually a small vesting time (1440 blocks?) on newly transferred coins before they can stake (protects agains a certain kind of attack).  Because you see deadline and hittime as zero, the account is known but has no current forging power.  Is also possible there is a minimum (but pretty low) balance required to stake.

Can you confirm this is a new account?  Or one with a very small balance?

Yeah I only have 100 HEAT on it at the moment... but I thought that'd be enough.

Seems like it should be enough, value-wise.

For what its worth, NXT has a minimum requirement of 1000.  But NXT has 1B coins, not 25M+.

Devs, what is the minimum requirement to forge/mine/stake HEAT?  Does it borrow the 1000 number from NXT?  If it does, can that be lowered to something more appropriate on the next fork.

EDIT: By requiring a minimum balance to forge, it lessens the amount of time it takes for network nodes to calculate the next forger.  So there could be a very good reason to have something a bit higher to achieve the desired throughput of HEAT.  Would love a dev comment on this.

And one more thing.  For any new accounts (not included in genesis) make one outbound transaction so that your public key is known by the blockchain (plus it secures the account with more bits).  I don't think you can forge without a known public key.

Alright, I made a small transfer to synace We'll see.

I would like to buy 9200 heat for the price 6600 sat each (total 0.61 btc). PM me if you are interested. We will use the 2 out of 3 multisig functions available at https://coinb.in. If you have never used it before, I will guide through the process. It is safe.

[bitcoiner456]

can anyone tell me how I can set up the server and start forging?

[StewieG]

can anyone tell me how I can set up the server and start forging?

Follow this: https://github.com/Heat-Ledger-Ltd/heatledger

Download hetledger.x.x.x.zip from here https://github.com/Heat-Ledger-Ltd/heatledger/releases

unzip the file

edit heat-default.properties in the conf folder. There is a line saying "heat.api_key=". Add an api key!
go to the bin folder and start heatledger
open terminal and type in:
curl -k -s http://localhost:7733/api/v1/mining/start/this%20is%20your%20secret%20phrase\?api_key=defined_in_heat-default.properties
If you don't have curl, download it!
You need to do this with YOUR apikey and YOUR passphrase! The %20 means space and has to be included
Now you are mining

I know, the heatheads were unable to put something like this on the website. Or on their forum. Or on the github... It is a classic heathead action again!

[dynamixvolt]

How on earth do I start forging can anyone put me in the right direction ?
