Hard to read article, but still easier than the original paper (plus the glass names are direct reference to it)

For a even more hardcore read check out the original paper: https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/688.pdf

How do I run zanod in the background on linux? I tried "nohup ./zanod >zanod.log &", but this fails.

you can use "screen" command for that(it basically can run any app in background).

Can I PoS mint in simplewallet? Or have I to use GUI?

[crypto_zoidberg]

Can I PoS mint in simplewallet? Or have I to use GUI?

Sure, you can use simplewallet for staking:

simplewallet --rpc-bind-port=yourport --wallet-file=path\to\your.file --do-pos-mining --deaf

--rpc-bind-port - this needed to launch simplewallet in server mode
--do-pos-mining - this tells wallet to launch staking
--deaf - tells simplewallet to ignore any network rpc requests (for safety reasons)

Can I ask, are there translations of the opening post in the other language sections? Russian even?

How do I run zanod in the background on linux? I tried "nohup ./zanod >zanod.log &", but this fails.

Screen doesn't put the program in the background in the usual sense. It makes the program run in a virtual terminal, which you can still access normally. I use screen a lot so I can keep lots of terminal programs running, without being visible all at once. You can put screen itself in the background with all the programs running within, and open it later (perhaps when connecting from another machine).

I think this is its most essential feature. Many people learned to use screen around 2000 for using IRC; they could leave their IRC client running on some server, and return to their session the next day, without keeping their own computer on all the time.

For actually putting zanod in the background, I use the --no-console option. So

Code:

./zanod --no-console &

or to make it extra sure

Code:

./zanod --no-console >/dev/null 2>/dev/null &

--deaf huh, interesting trick, didn't know that one!

Good hint too, runs well.

You skilled with linux?  I have a RaspberryPI coming and want to spend some time over setting a staking node and try to secure it, maybe even make a bundle or image so people can use it easily.

If you have any skill, a hand would surely be appreciated!  In that case just join in our discord and hit me up!

#TODO 2021 

I can sort out a Spanish translation for us.

Hi everyone! We're happy to announce another Zano development update. This release adds an additional layer of protection for your funds. "Secure Seeds" are wallet seed phrases that are also password-protected. It's essentially 2FA for your wallet and means that even if an adversery were to discover your seed phrase, they still wouldn't be able to access your funds without knowing the password. Pre-existing wallets can also be converted to using a "Secure Seed". See the full announcement for details:

One last thing, the article wallet has zano in it, if you can solve the riddle you can claim these coins, enjoy!

Happy holidays!
