[ANN][ENRG]Energycoin - Android Released - Bittrex -

[Digithusiast]

Good to see things starting to roll. Crypto4jan and SaintFrantic, 2 weeks ago I donated 2.5 million ENRG in the EnergySavingFund wallet, maybe you can use 300.000 of those for the wallet dev as SaintFrantic mentions above.

On the forum I work on a post for explain Energy Saving Fund.
For this development we can use the 300k ENRG but in future I wants to know first what the plans are before I give permission for spending.
I hope that ENRG becomes much more value in the future. Buying cheap EnergyCoin would have be my preference now.
I want no coin from Energy Saving Fund hits the market before level minimum 10k Satoshi are.
And even then for devolpment I prefere BTC from external investment.
There I work on hard!
300k ENRG is worth 0.1 BTC now so you can also use the 0.1 BTC I donated today.

Not bad, we are already on many exchanges, so it's not good news to boost the price.

Hi dev,
How can I get more connections?
I 've only 5 active connections?

We need more people to start staking and keep their wallets alive.

Is there no other way to get active connection.

No other way! We need those wallets open that means there is only 5 people currently staking coins which is pathetic. It's insult for EnergyCoin.

My full node currently have 23 active connection. (I accept 50 in config file)
If you are stuck with 5, maybe it's a network issue ?
Do you forward ENRG port to your computer?

How to forward ENRG port?
I'm in a home network and the PC is now always on.
This connections problem important we have to solve.
Asked some collages @AlterraWUR to keep wallet always online.
More suggestions to make the network more sustainable?

Sardokan can you, please post your conf. so everyone can see how to do it. Thanks

[ranlo]

Just snagged another 4.9k ENRG... still not a lot but it's slowly growing, .

[SaintFrantic]

In your router, you need to forward port TCP 22706 to the IP of the host running energy coin wallet

All always on wallet must do this for the sanity of the network


For my config to allow 50 connection, no need to post it, by default the wallet accept 100 connections
If you really want, I can search it, but it's not very useful as I never reach 50 anymore since a lot of initial members have sold there coins and stopped the wallet.

@EnergyCr : do you know how we can know how much nodes are connected to the network ?

can you post that conf content

[SaintFrantic]

OK

I will post it tomorrow as I can't access my raspberry from my phone 

Great

[Fulis]

yes listed, but only  24 Hr Volume 0.016 BTC

[crypto4jan]

OK

About the rapberry: I found a reward topic on the peercointalk for Setting Up a Node with PI : http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=2800.0
To secure the EnergyCoin network it is I think a great idea to adopt this.
I donate 250k ENRG for a reward system like Peercoin have.
@sardokan can you setup a topic like the they have by peercointalk with specific instructions for EnergyCoin?
Maybe we can use some source code form peercoin and instruction text?
I created start post and if you or someone else can provide the text that would be great!
Check: http://energycoin.pw/forum/index.php/topic/90-energycoin-raspberry-pi-get-10000-erg-for-setting-up-a-node/

[crypto4jan]

It's a nice idea

I will copy past and adapt the text to energycoin.

My English is not Cristal clear so maybe

Thank you very much!
@SF can check the spelling on the forum.
Mayby send to SF first and than I post the correct start post.

[crypto4jan]

Was going to say maybe a little rework would be good

So I will send it to sf

Great!

[mandular]

yes listed, but only  24 Hr Volume 0.016 BTC

I think they delete it soon from their servise, because of this small volume.

[liie888coins]

Here is the copy past adapted to EnergyCoin, maybe we can adapt it a little bit more

I think this is clear enough, but one of us should do all the steps to see if some steps requires some clarification:





EnergyCoin eco-green node deployment project on Raspberry PI

Here's how to get the 10K ENRG tip:

1. Take a fresh image for your raspi, like raspbian or other light linux and write it on your SD card.
Help to prepare SD card: http://elinux.org/RPi_Easy_SD_Card_Setup
RASPBIAN sources and others: http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/

Go to https://github.com/energycoin/energycoin/releases and download ARM 1.1.2 build EnergyCoin-1.1.2-arm.tar.gz (you will also find the sources to build on your own if you want)
In order to run this version under Raspberry Pi you should install dependencies using following commands in terminal:
•   sudo apt-get update
•   sudo apt-get install libboost-system1.49 libboost-filesystem1.49 libboost-thread1.49 libboost-program-options1.49 libqt4-gui libqt4-network libdb5.1++ libminiupnpc-dev
•   tar xvf EnergyCoin-1.1.2-arm.tar.gz
•   ./energycoin-qt

On your internet box or router, forward port TCP 22706 to your raspberry (allow your PI to be a full node, distribute blockchain and connect to 9 nodes or more)


2. Post in this thread with a photo of your Pi, and also a photo of your Pi screen.
The following should be visible in the photo of your Pi's screen:
A: A window showing your Raspberry Pi serial number
(using “cat /proc/cpuinfo” in terminal)
Help here: http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/2086/how-do-i-get-the-serial-number

B: The EnergyCoin-QT wallet with the green checkmark in the lower right hand corner indicating that the RPi is now a currently synced node or the "getblockcount" command in the debug window.
C: The EnergyCoin-QT debug window open showing the command "getconnectioncount" having been typed in at the bottom and the window showing 9 or more connections.

3. Send a PM to crypto4jan with your EnergyCoin address so he can send you the 10K tip

If you follow the above instructions correctly, you will receive your tip! A big thank you to crypto4jan for donating the first 250K ENRG that will be used for tipping.

FAQ

What is a Raspberry Pi?

A Raspberry Pi is a low cost, credit-card sized computer that can be plugged into a monitor/tv, and a standard keyboard and mouse (http://www.raspberrypi.org/help/what-is-a-raspberry-pi/). It is used in programming education and also has a wide variety of other uses. Its low energy consumption makes it perfect for running an EnergyCoin node.

What model of Raspberry Pi should I buy?

Model B is the most used at the moment; there is also a newer B+ model but either is sufficient for running an EnergyCoin node.
You will need an SD card (it's best to buy a class 10 or better), and a micro usb power supply (the same used by android phones and numerous other devices). An ethernet cable is used to connect to your router, and if you are not running it "headless" then you need a USB keyboard and mouse, as well as a monitor/tv that can be connected to your Pi via HDMI cable. A case is not necessary but is useful for protecting your Pi.

What is the purpose of this project?

The purpose of this project is to encourage the use of Energy on Raspberry Pi, while also increasing the number of full nodes on the network. A connection count of more than 8 indicates that port forwarding is enabled and that you are running a full node (this benefits the network by distributing the EnergyCoin blockchain to others). Minting is beyond the scope of this project.

Can I mint on my Raspberry Pi too?

Yes, you can mint. However, the goal of this project is only to set up full nodes. You may wish to take extra security precautions if you also want to use your node for minting.

Thanks for the detail instruction.

I'll need to take some time to digest it. 

But the idea of Raspberry Pi looks really interesting. I wish I'll be able to get it run on my old linux machine.

[rockrabbit]

The node deployment project sounds great. We need more people to get involved in and open their wallet to make a node.

Just bought some cheap coins, and I will keep on buying.

By the way, how is the android wallet going?
