We've been working on a simplified method to do the VPS configuration for a Tron/Throne.

Requirements:

Ubuntu 16.04 or later (minimal or full)
A totally clean installed VPS.

Method:

Type this in your local wallet and make a note of the output:

Code:

throne genkey

Type this into your remote VPS, subsituting PUT_YOUR_TRON_PRIVKEY_HERE with the output of the above command.

Code:

sudo apt-get install curl -y && curl -s https://crowncentral.net/tron-setup/install.sh | bash -s PUT_YOUR_TRON_PRIVKEY_HERE

That's it! The script will download the wallet, synchronise it (it will take a couple of hours), set up a firewall and configure your throne.conf  automatically.

Do not try to use this script to update an existing Throne.  It will break it.

Make sure you install this on a clean VPS to maximize the chance of success.

After many months of tweaking Iquidus, my block explorer is finally ready for use.

http://ex.crownlab.eu/

Blocks are updated every 60 seconds.

The movement tab shows transactions above 5,000 CRW. 10k transactions are highlighted in orange...very useful for tracking Thrones as they are set up. Transactions over 100k are shown in red.

Enjoy.

[Wildvest]

very nice indeed ! Thanks for you awesome work !

Hey guys. finally my Bittrex withdraw was fixed. apparently "the withdraw was orphaned" whatever this means.
now i need to set up a throne and it seems my local ISP might be blocking some ports....  
any recommendation on a VPS service?
cheers!

Theres quite a few.. i recommend looking around. You shouldn't be paying much more than $5 per month.

The spec you need

1GB ram
10gb hard drive (Min)
Quite some bandwidth

Examples

OVH
Vultr
Lowendbox

OVH has the majority by a wide margin. https://chainz.cryptoid.info/crw/masternodes.dws

If all their data centers were to go down, it would be extremely profitable for everyone else.

I personally like vultr. They have a nice interface and match your first $100, and are $5 otherwise. Lots of good options though.

Also using vultr. Putting up one more as we speak.  

Even have one running there on a 512MB plan ($2,5) no problems so far.

Edit: Make that two  

Nice! Are you using your own script to build?

No, script from here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BjvBg6OBKvMnZK_9swJFgI95NQmrDz8SrBo5GO-JdOE/edit
Works every time.  

Lol cool. Had so many complaints about them i've lost count. We have new guides coming very soon and make setting up a Throne much easier than the current guides.

I mean buy a vps, log into it, copy/paste = VPS done.

Nice!

Just noticed I haven't received any payouts since I've put up more then one t(h)ron(e).

With just one I received 1-3 a day. Weird. They all have been started for over a day.

Update: Payouts received for all t(h)ron(e)s! 

[jenia1]

hey guys. thanks for all the tips , instructions and help. my throne is finally running. special thanks LucD88 which guided me through some very crucial steps and other moderators and users.
thanks again and long live the crown!

Which is the third way quoted in STAGE 1 in >>> http://crown.tech/crown-revolution

I Luiz,

be great if you could join our private chat if you want to get involved and get to know the team and its plans.

But let me answer a bit, our third way is a situation where miners do not play a key role in the distribution of coins and keeping the network safe, since mining coins is not the most efficient way to sustain a blockchain 2.0 project. In our plans Thrones or Trons masternodes will be playing a much important role.

Let me paste here a text which will be online on crown.tech in the next few days concerning Trons:

What is a TRON?
The Crown platform utilizes masternodes called TRONs.  The minimal requirements for running a masternode are to just have a small compute session which is always on and connected to the network, and load the Crown software on it and set some configuration files up with some keys to confirm that you have the required 10,000 CRW collateral on the blockchain.
TRONs are still under development, but the TRONs on the Crown network server to:
Secure and stabilize the network and transactions.  
For those interested in how this works, there are ways that network security can be accomplished using mathematical properties which don’t involve mining algorithms, but functionally leverage randomness and network topology.  These techniques are used by a variety of different systems, from WeChat to Zookeeper -- just look up the Paxos Algorithm and go from there.  The Dash paxos implementation with InstantX is an elegant example.  
The network is secured by both the TRONs and merge-mining.  We like having multiple layers of security.

Provide another layer of governance.
TRONS will be able to make and vote on proposals for allocating the 10% of the block rewards which has been held back since the last code update in February 2017.  None of the funds held back from the block rewards have been allocated yet, and the existing development fund is composed of tokens contributed personally by members of the core team so that the project would have the resources to get to the point at which TRON voting would be turned on.  This code is in place and it is just a matter of turning it on this function that the platform inherits from Dash in the next update.

Provide Application Developers and TRON Operators with Business Opportunities
Once the API is developed, developers will be able to integrate Crown API calls and package applications which TRON operators would be able to offer to users managing the provisioning of compute resources, and payment for the application, through the Crown API in concert with other API’s or development tools.  TRON’s are, in a sense, franchises to operate a cloud application business running open source applications and accepting payment denominated in CRW.
The overall goal of the project is to do something useful with crypto.  The first use is to see if we can create an application economy running a cloud of open source applications.  The TRONs are the backbone to the Crown Cloud, which doesn’t exist yet – but which we hope to work with the community to build.

Why TRON?
Well… we needed a name.  Tron is close to the old name for the servers, throne – but a “tron” is active and not passive, and “tron” refers to the history of crypto where Hal Finney was involved with building the Atari game The Adventure of Tron.  
The key idea is that TRONs are active server nodes on the network.  A TRON can generate revenues by confirming transactions on the network – but it will also be able to use the Crown API, alongside other API’s to allow developers to build other businesses as well.

I would be very happy to participate in private chat, get involved, meet the staff and their plans, unfortunately I do not speak English (google-translator), I am new to crypto-coins and my CRW are still not enough for a 1 TRON.

But I am a member of a group of more than 1.3k people involved in crypto-currency trading (technical and fundamentalist), and I intend to release new information that I may have about CRW in the group (especially for fundamentalists), but already I indicated CRW on the poloniex website.


If I completed the 10k of CRW that is missing for a TRON, what would be the return on CRW or BTC in average?

CROWN Update 8.4.2017

Core DEV team meeting in Prague 27 and 28th of April 2017
After the December 2016 meeting in London, 6 members of the Core dev team are meeting in Prague, several of which are flying across the Atlantic ocean. Urban_idler, stonehedge, chaositec, defunctec, infernoman, crowncoin_knight will be meeting on the 27th and 28th of April do discuss next steps which will lead CROWN toward our goal: Crown Revolution

Open session for the Crown community
The dev team will hold an open session for anybody who wants to meet the team and discuss Crown on the 29th of Aprll starting at 10:00. Please follow BTC talk for further details. We will put an update on the the place of the meeting.

Next code release in May 2017
The team plans another release which include the following features. One of the most important updates will be enabling our Throne voting mechanism on Crown. We are currently working on:

DNS NODES
InstantX implementation
fix alerts
fix sporks
throne output ADDR
disable ipv6 thrones (only 20% of the internet is capable of handling ipv6 less in smaller countries)
stronger enforcement on local address nodes (127.0.0.1)
enable timestamping directly in the QT
throne enforcement
superblock enforcement
superblocks

New API, Throne growth and crowncentral.net launch
Nodes on the Crown Network are currently called Thrones and just sit there.  After the May code update, we expect to be testing an API intended to enable the construction of an application layer of the network connecting through the network nodes.  So after the May update the nodes will start to become active, and we will be exclusively referring to them as TRONs.  This has been an understandable point of confusion for many.

We will also be discussing a reduction of the collateral required to operate a Tron.  Specifically, the proposal would be to set the collateral amount to 5,000 CRW in the May update.

The total number of Thrones / Trons grew to a new record of 750 earlier, which means over 2 million dollars in locked value. It also demonstrates the willingness of new investors to hold CROWN long term as ROI is attractive.

Additionally, one of our community members has launched his complex Throne monitoring app at www.crowncentral.net where you can check your Throne ROI as well as.

We are very excited about the recent growth of the CROWN community and we will be posting a detailed update after our Prague meeting.
