Hello Community:
MTR Linux Nodes Update: The testing node we set up to test our Linux compile has been staking smoothly and has ran nonstop with no issues.
With the testing node checking out we decided we'd compile 2 more nodes that are now fully synced.
I have received the other 2 node wallet addresses from Chrysx, and I have filled those latest nodes compiled with 700 MTR each.
So in short, we have successfully added 3 more permanent 24-7 nodes to the MTR network, and these nodes can be added to the config file to sync MTR Wallet with the blockchain.
The 3 nodes have now been paired with their own DNS to make them easy to add to any MTR wallet:
mtr-seed1.granitecoin.com
mtr-seed2.granitecoin.com
mtr-seed3.granitecoin.com
So if anyone wanted to add a node - they can do it two ways ...first is through the console ( debug ) in the wallet - second is the conf file ...and the dns addresses are as I mentioned above.
I find it easiest to add them to the config file.
Through the conf file - it would be just simply:
addnode=mtr-seed1.granitecoin.com
addnode=mtr-seed2.granitecoin.com
addnode=mtr-seed3.granitecoin.com
Anyone with a new wallet ( or an old one that has deleted their folder and kept the wallet.dat ) can sync without an issue ..no lag, no getting stuck at block XXX,XXX, etc.
Why are the seed dns's paired to GraniteCoin?
Great question, as many of you might know...I like to reach out to many other devs in the space and build partnerships. So Crysx has agreed to help me make this happen and I would appreciate if members of the community showed their gratitude by simply giving your thanks to him.
He has agreed to run these 3 nodes 24-7 improving the network stability. On top of these 3 he will be helping by continuing to introduce more nodes to the MTR network..we can expect 4 more this week!
Feel free to tip him -Crysx here: MGYvdin2joZXYz2zLWUmzGJxy7KvF6UFtSCheck this out...So he has compiled the GraniteCoin daemon on the same MTR VPS that we were running test on originally.
He did this so we can test the stability of the VPS running 2 different deamons -GraniteCoin - MTR - at the same time.
What happened here?
Well great news, this has been tested and because both the wallets use different ports...he can piggy back the wallet nodes on 1 single VPS improving the efficiency of the VPS itself along with being able to add even more nodes to the current VPS's he has for GraniteCoin.
So they are working at the same time on the same node using the same ip ( but setup on different dns records ) ... no confusion - no crosslinking ports ( or anything else for that matter ) - no issues whatsoever.
This is CRYPTO and I love it.
Check our progress for yourself guys and girls:
mtr-seed1.granitecoin.com - 51.254.216.25
mtr-seed2.granitecoin.com - 51.254.216.250
mtr-seed3.granitecoin.com - 51.254.216.251
MTR/ETNA Level 2 Provider API Update:I have been in talks with DcGirl over the past few days and she is nearly finished with the build and almost ready to pass it off to ETNA.
Where is stands...
Quote from DcGirl earlier today.
hi Rich - this is pretty much finished, the initial call works fine, but I get inconsistent results on subsequent calls (that show what has changed). The issue is that the exchanges don't timestamp orderbooks. So I have to compare what the latest data is with what I return initially. And show not just price/amount changes, but position in the list changes. I'll try to get a link for you later today if possible so you can start looking at it.
Looks like things are coming together with that folks and I will keep you all updated.
Cheers,
