DISCLAIMER
I [the original poster / OP] is NOT a developer of PIRATE Assetchain.
I do not advice anyone for PIRATE Assetchain.

NOTE: I can not assure this first thread will be up to date. I highly recommend visiting https://piratechain.com which is being taken care by community on github pages. I'll still try to keep this main original post up to date as the information is provided to me. No promises. Thanks for understanding.


Komodo Platform (https://komodoplatform.com/) has Assetchain parameter to make Z transactions only Assetchain. Means a runtime fork of Zcash code, which ONLY does private transactions. Totally Independent blockchain. There are many combinations of making such chains here: https://bit.ly/2NwOM3J

So far no project used this parameter to make PRIVACY TRANSACTIONS ONLY BLOCKCHAIN. Some community folks made a this Assetchain and named it PIRATE. 😅
So, this PIRATE chain has these interesting facts (so far from my notes):

- Komodo Assetchain
- Independent blockchain
- Privacy/Shielded/z tx only chain. No Transparent transactions possible on PIRATE chain.
- Block time aprox 60 seconds.
- Block halving every 388885 blocks.
   - aprox every 270.0590278 days
   - aprox every 8.872575862 months
- Block reward of 1 satoshi will reach in about 25.89607116 years.
- Total supply of around 200 million. Exactly to be 199,109,119.99420500 by year 2043+
- CryptoConditions contracts not possible on this chain, as it's z tx only chain.
- Can't notarize without special exemptions. Notarisation now possible since this update: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4979549.msg46084487#msg46084487
- Equihash PoW algo blockchain.
- Alternatively can use Verushash PoW, but has to be used for a 100% PoW chain.
- TOR network supported.


Getting Started
To get started with you only need Komodo Platform daemon installed on your machine. You can either download the wallet from Komodo Platform website and use the bundled "komodod" and "komodo-cli" in it, or you can also compile it on your machine.
Installation instructions are available on Komodo Platform documentation website here: https://docs.komodoplatform.com/komodo/install-Komodo-manually.html

Connect to PIRATE blockchain
Command to run PIRATE blockchain and connect with the network:

Code:
./komodod -ac_name=PIRATE -ac_supply=0 -ac_reward=25600000000 -ac_halving=77777 -ac_private=1 -addnode=136.243.102.225

Mine PIRATE blockchain
Use "-gen" and "-genproclimit" to enable mining. Value for "-genproclimit" is the value of how many CPU threads you have on your system.
Code:
./komodod -ac_name=PIRATE -ac_supply=0 -ac_reward=25600000000 -ac_halving=77777 -ac_private=1 -addnode=136.243.102.225 -gen -genproclimit=4

Add seed node IPs
Add seed nodes IP for better network connectivity. Example starting assetchain with 2 seed node IP
Code:
./komodod -ac_name=PIRATE -ac_supply=0 -ac_reward=25600000000 -ac_halving=77777 -ac_private=1 -addnode=136.243.102.225 -addnode=78.47.205.239

Wallet comands
Quote
# Get wallet and blockchain info
./komodo-cli -ac_name=PIRATE getinfo


# Get wallet information
./komodo-cli -ac_name=PIRATE getwaletinfo


# Get mining information
./komodo-cli -ac_name=PIRATE getmininginfo


# Generate a new Z/Private address
./komodo-cli -ac_name=PIRATE z_getnewaddress


# To backup the private key of a z address
./komodo-cli -ac_name=PIRATE z_exportkey "zaddr"


# To send mined coins to a z address
./komodo-cli -ac_name=PIRATE "fromaddress" "tozaddress" ( fee ) ( limit )

# Example 1:
./komodo-cli -ac_name=PIRATE z_shieldcoinbase "RHYDbB9ZtoqSaTvJqkCNd7EH9eLnvULSnr" "zcdYeSbZCnvcbKhUPMYWdMy9FVdgQ2y9fivhbWgCuPsbFJ5VycayAZwrgkC8dbyVZd1einoNjKBa8hs Xy71B3aMNVpinvsa"

# Example 2:
./komodo-cli -ac_name=PIRATE z_shieldcoinbase "*" "zcdYeSbZCnvcbKhUPMYWdMy9FVdgQ2y9fivhbWgCuPsbFJ5VycayAZwrgkC8dbyVZd1einoNjKBa8hs Xy71B3aMNVpinvsa"


# To send a transaction from your z address to another z address
./komodo-cli -ac_name=PIRATE z_sendmany "fromaddress" [{"address":... ,"amount":...},...] ( minconf ) ( fee )

# Example:
komodo-cli -ac_name=PIRATE z_sendmany "zcdYeSbZCnvcbKhUPMYWdMy9FVdgQ2y9fivhbWgCuPsbFJ5VycayAZwrgkC8dbyVZd1einoNjKBa8hs Xy71B3aMNVpinvsa" '[{"address": "zcVHHtp5vTFDASaMoWXGYnPYq7n6xqwtYDFmN4F9UX4T88MscMJY9wQgyAMWpM4ttNXDyQHcFDGgegs 3CBDQ9KNWvUXaaUA" ,"amount": 5.9999}]'


How to enable TOR settings for PIRATE:
Just started Tor Browser as normal and used this command to start PIRATE blockchain:

Quote
./komodod \
-ac_name=PIRATE \
-ac_supply=0 \
-ac_reward=25600000000 \
-ac_halving=77777 \
-ac_private=1 \
-addnode=37.9.62.186 \
-addnode=136.243.102.225 \
-daemon \
-proxy=127.0.0.1:9150   # Connect through TOR SOCKS5 proxy \
-listen   # Accept connections from outside (default: 1 if no -proxy or -connect) \
-listenonion   # Automatically create Tor hidden service (default: 1) \
-maxconnections=25 \
# -onlynet=onion  # Optional. If you only want to connect to peers via Tor network. If enabled no clearnet/internet IPv4/IPv6 addresses will connect as peers.

Tested this on MacOS. It must be exactly same on Linux as well.
For Windows, just use the single line command, and remove the comment line after "#" too.

Remove the command line parameter or change it accordingly.

I just tested PIRATE over TOR in the most simplest and easiest setup way possible. Bit more advanced users can find this help link very useful which describes setting up "bitcoind" with Tor settings:
https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/70069/how-can-i-setup-bitcoin-to-be-anonymous-with-tor

Linux admins and PIRATE miners can also help by setting up Tor PIRATE nodes, and share on this forum your .onion address and port for your PIRATE peer.
Once we have good amount of .onion based PIRATE peers we can add them to "-addnode=" list, and can have more privacy added to PIRATE.

The Tor support request has been shared with Agama Wallet developers. Let's hope we get Tor Support in Agama Wallet soon. Once done, setting up Tor for a coin or assetchain would be easier.

PIRATE GIVEAWAY COMPLETED

Arr PIRATE maties,

More than 10% of current PIRATE supply will be airdropped to those who missed out on early days mining.

There is now a public pool with working payouts to Z-addresses, if you want to mine it easily (thanks to Webworker01): https://pirate.komodostats.com
To qualify for the airdrop all you need to do is supply a Z-address in this BCT ANN.

RULES:
-> The airdrop amount is 250,000 PIRATE
-> The airdrop will happen on: 19th of September 2018
-> Cut off for supplying Z address is the day before: 18th September at 0 UTC
-> Any Z-address submitted after this time will not be included in the airdrop
-> The PIRATE will be divided evenly over the addresses supplied. If 250,000 people apply you will each get 1.
-> Any BTT accounts made after 1st September 2018 or newbie accounts, will not be included in the airdrop!

(This account will be the official PIRATE account from now on)

UPDATE 1: Giveaway completed. More details here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4979549.msg46143299#msg46143299

This really is the best of 2 worlds: forced anonymity like Monero has, but with the mixing set of all past and future z-transactions on this PIRATE chain.

You want anonymity? Become a PIRATE, arrr

Komodo is the safest, safest I know, and this is an independent blockchain, it looks like this will occupy the safest blockchain network ever, okay, let's look in the future

I would like to get more information about the project. A coin that is taken as a basis has many merits. For example, anonymity, which is very important.

Here comes the juggernaut of snark bullshit again. This lorry should be taken off road and busted in a safe place under the palm trees in a salty desert. Im looking to get a confirmation from the Hudson based institute of cryptography as to whether the technology employed in zero coin has a chance for a living. For now all u can do is wait and scatter ur little hopes across the ground.

If this is testnet.. will you relaunch at blockheight zero later or is this going to be the main chain assuming nothing implodes.
also..

@webworker01 is setting up a pool for mining PIRATE. He has shared his progress today in Komodo Discord ( https://komodoplatform.com/discord )
Quote
pool progress: ok so the memory leak was because if the nomp isn't set to payout shares, the records in redis never get cleared out and it just grows insanely large causing the web interface to get overloaded when trying to load up all the data
will start looking at making zaddr payouts next

This is nice and users with lower end CPU can still get some share of the PIRATE mining reward.
