Hi all, looking for some help with my Raspberry Pi nodes; they only run solarcoind daemon not SolarCoin-Qt, is therea way to load the bootstrap of the blockchain? I tried unzipping bootstrap.zip into .solarcoin directory but that didnt work. I set the solarcoin.conf with server=1 and daemon=1 as well. I tried starting solarcoind -rescan and solarcoind -loadblock=/home/pi/.solarcoin/bootstrap/blk0001.dat
Any ideas? Im making a new Raspberry Pi node for a friend and syncing the block-chain takes days.

Solarcoin (§ SLR) are like airmiles. Each 1 Mhw generated gets you §1 free. Solarcoins can purchase what others will trade: USD,BTC, Soy candles..etc.

Thanks I had asked on Telegram and Slack a few months ago, I realised I had not checked in with this forum though so thought it was worth asking. If anyone wants to build a Raspberry Pi node, the instructions are on: https://github.com/Scalextrix/SolarCoin-Raspberry-Pi-Node

Possibly, but its not really the power draw that is the driving factor for that, a Pi 3 is $50 (plus extras) Pi Zero is $5. If you are doing an ROI as a calimant of SolarCoin, and we can get you a $5 device to standalone run the blockchain, I think that will be a cool idea. Of course this also is good for the ElectriCChain project because we can use the Pi as a datalogger that can be on 24/7 monitoring production and posting to block-chain.

Could look at it as a different business model also. Say you have a 50 dollar unit running the wallet with as many coins as you wish merely for investment purposes. There's no bad reason to invest in solar, but what if you're not ready to install panels on your roof, in your yard, etc? Well simply by investing in the technology you can be part of the rewards through staking. That's where I am right now. I don't have the resources to actually install panels, but the network needs nodes and the more nodes the better. The 5 dollar pi for data logging and nodes are still a great idea, but they won't appeal until the technology matures, unless you have a large enough SLR claim to make it worthwhile.

I did a little How Hard Is It for A Newcomer to Setup A Wallet? survey. You guys won: got a wallet set up and coined up in under ninety minutes.
Don't know if I'll stick around -- but scalextrix knows I've long had a kind word for SLR over on the Reddit Doge Cryptocurrency thread.

The 5 dollar pi for data logging and nodes are still a great idea, but they won't appeal until the technology matures, unless you have a large enough SLR claim to make it worthwhile. Yeah I was running my Pi3 with two coins for a while, but eventually the swap started getting used and the chains slowed down, so Im back to one coin per Pi now. I did see a HAT for a Pi2/3 that lets you add up to 4 PI Zeros https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/cluster-hat?utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=googlepla&variant=22064645063&gclid=Cj0KEQiA56_FBRDYpqGa2p_e1MgBEiQAVEZ6-yYM9nzYNnscxFLXzsv7kAdL1ljDL3Q7xn2l3eZtDAEaAtyu8P8HAQ , I didnt read enough to see if it could run 5 coins though.

Thats good feedback Mark, did you post about your survey results anywhere? Stick with SLR, we have some cool innovations coming on ElectriCChain and such.

The 'survey' was impromptu, born of frustration with the lack of wallet support with another crypto. I did post a positive message over at Groestlcoin, who also have The Wallet Thang well in hand. And got a tiny bid up on Bittrex.

I'm originally from South Australia but currently living in Victoria. I jumped on board with SolarCoin back in 2014, missed the launch by a couple of months, and have been here ever since. I have a mate in South Australia who I introduced to SolarCoin also, so there's at least three of us.

Was chatting on the Telegram channel the other day, turns out a chap lives in the next town, was a funny conversation, for a minute I thought he was gonna turn out to be my neighbour! More SolarCoiners out there than you think

TooQik put me on to SLR way back when, and we learned a lot through the mining phase. Glad that is over and done with; while it was a great fun learning experience, mining doesn't really fit in with the renewable energy ethos. Very interested in the various initiatives this coin is following, and excited to see where it all goes! Got a feeling that there's at least one more Aussie here, but I'm not searching back through the thread to find them... lol
