Hey guys I was wondering if I can run a masternode on a raspberry pi? Thanks!

shouldn't be a problem as long as you can provide it with a static public IP address (probably have to buy one somewhere, domestic ISPs/providers usually do not give you one for free)

That said, you will probably need a good power supply in order to have a high uptime, and microSD cards are probably not meant for such constant wear-and-tear (the master node writes the whole blockchain to disk). They are also notorious for corrupting your data on a bad system shutdown. So you might have to connect a physical hard disk. I have never looked into this though, just google for some DASH raspberry master node tutorials and you'll be fine.

Unless you are really enthusiastic about using a raspberry just for the coolness factor (and low electricity cost), paying for a small VPS will save you a lot of time and headache and thereby money.

Another question: is there a way to see how many masternodes currently exist in total?

not capable of masternode: Could not connect to 172.xxx.x.xxx:xxx

I'm sure there is a easy way to solve this and yes I'm boob , and yes I've googled 322 things, attempted to change firewall setting tried to understand forwarding ports.

I just can't do it

any helpers out there?

In Linux, the daemon does not start, writes the initialization error of the wallet. File wallet.dat is not present.
How in Linux to create it, or what to run with what parameters?

There doesn't seem to be much going on with this coin at the moment, any new updates coming soon?

"The ChainCoin algorithm produces > 960 blocks per day, @ 8 coins per block which is 7680 coins daily
25% of the reward is distributed to masternode holders."

if 25% goes to the master node , where does the other 75% go?

To the miners

So.... where are they at with the rebrand? Seems to be languishing.

Rebranding is going well. We've launched a new web site and the rebranded wallet was released a few days ago.

There are a lot of Masternodes from 1 IP, i suggest to update the protocol to only accept 1 masternode pro IP (like Transfercoin did a few weeks ago).

1 IP 1 node is better for the network.

I'm not sure 🤔 if you need more hardware to run MN's it would be likely that more coins move back to exchanges possibly holding back the price. But who knows. ....

if somebody care, my adapted & tested chaincoind daemon start script with autostart for the standard Masternode Setup on Ubuntu 16.04 (and higher)

copy text into a new file /etc/systemd/system/chaincoind.service

Code:

[Unit]
Description=chaincoin's distributed currency daemon
After=network.target

[Service]
User=root
Group=root

Type=forking
PIDFile=/root/.chaincoin/chaincoind.pid
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/chaincoind -daemon -pid=/root/.chaincoin/chaincoind.pid -conf=/root/.chaincoin/chaincoin.conf -datadir=/root/.chaincoin
#-disablewallet

Restart=always
PrivateTmp=true
TimeoutStopSec=60s
TimeoutStartSec=2s
StartLimitInterval=120s
StartLimitBurst=5

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

run

Code:

systemctl reenable chaincoind

reload config

Code:

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart chaincoind

or better reboot and check for startup with

Code:

systemctl status chaincoind

advantage is its autostart on reboot and also on daemon crash

Nice script. Did the same thing exist on Windows platform ?

is there a good explain about masternodes on windows?

Here. How to host a Chaincoin Masternode on windows.
https://steemit.com/chaincoin/@jeffblogs/how-to-host-a-chaincoin-masternode-on-windows

tanx going to do it now

Would you recommand running masternode on vps or Would be good/safe to run it with my own computer

It's better to run on VPS imo, then you know for sure that you have a static IP address. If you set it up running Ubuntu following the guide provided in the slack you can feel pretty secure about the security of your masternode being rock solid.
