That setup uses dedicated controller wallet (albeit local), so it is different. I was using Linux, and. most importantly, I was trying to use a single wallet (single datadir etc) both as MN itself, and as controller. That setup could be interesting for smaller holders only, but well... smaller holders are the most important user category for real decentralization, so having this setup working is important too, IMHO.

I think this guide does that for windows machines: https://www.heliumlabs.org/v1.0/docs/masternode-setup-guide-windows-local

Its a setup up for running multiple MNs on one local machine (afaict, never used this set up). I don't think there is anything that prevents you from running a hot node. Haven't been able to test it yet though.

Did anyone try a one wallet MN setup, instead of Hot-cold (local-remote) wallet setup as described in the tutorial?

I mean - try to run a masternode and control it using the one single hot wallet. That is a standard setup, which should be the simplest one... and it works on all other MN coins I have setup before.
Yesterday I spent hours trying to make it work - to no avail. It just throws stupid errors, like "Not capable masternode: cannot connect to x.x.x.x:9009", or just "Not capable masternode: " - without error description.
Gave up yesterday. Today moved the controlling part to the remote wallet - boom, it worked immediately.

So I suppose there is either a bug in HLM MN implementation (as the single hot wallet setup works for other MN coins); or an intended security limitation - it this case it should be documented, and the daemon should throw some meaningful error message - like "Not capable masternode: only local-remote setup is supported." or something better...

Just wanted to report this, in case if it's not widely known and discussed in slack/telegram/discord already

coins101's involvement with helium is a mystery, wrapped in an enigma, rolled up in a sleeping bag sucking cones through a wizard bong, battered in a year long sickie, deep fried in a lazy Sunday afternoon on the couch. Best to consider him as someone from the past, and not rely on him for anything. If he delivers cool, but don't expect it, and don't expect any explanations. Helium did well without him.

I'm sure that's possible, but I can't establish that from any posts here at BTCTalk or anywhere.  Even on the Helium site everyone on the leadership team has a "mouseover" bio but the "co-founder / CTO" so that role and background is mysterious in itself.  Easy for coins101 to just re-state what you wrote.

He is the co-founder / CTO

@coins101 I was looking at the Helium leadership team at https://heliumchain.org/team/ and I don't see your profile as part of the leadership.  What is your official capacity at Helium?  I see the CCO is responsible for community so don't understand where you fit into the scheme of things (unless you're the CCO and I missed that).  Perhaps you're the CMO as you're making new announcements?

We are pleased to announce that Dr Dimitris Antoniadis will be joining the project team to focus on pilot delivery and governance.

Dimitris is highly respected within the construction sector, with particular expertise in delivery of complex projects. He has provided a profile summary:

Following the last update, see below, the pilot work has now started with active input from several core members including SAP, Arup, TATA, Scan Computers / Ebb3 and others.

As the pilot expands out, all participants will be asked to sign a cooperation agreement which will cover a number of legal issues such as all intellectual property being open source, NDA arrangements between members to share sensitive information which may be necessary to facilitate the pilot and agreement around public representations such as press statements. Lawyers who have been giving input into the smart contracts workshops that took place earlier in the year, will be helping to draft the cooperation agreement.


While the immediate next stages of the development work are focused on process clarification around our draft white paper, a number of pilot participants are actively looking at how the work coming out of the pilot will impact real world deployment within their businesses and how they can begin to mobilize internally to yield the many benefits of blockchains and smart contracts.  This is an exciting aspect of our project as we move from having gained the trust and confidence of our partners based around listening to them and sketching out solutions, through to implementation.

found it. is there any plan for 1 click masternode? maybe use gin platform

Anyone got link to download wallet

HLM coin without Exchange

here everything lasts for years

Yep, sorry for that. I have to update the code when I have time.

Well, yes probably is calculates MN results correctly. But it claims to calculate PoS rewards too, but shows false results.

Checked it again - yes, looks like it just has a simple stupid bug - in fact it always shows exactly the same rewards for MN and staking. For example if I enter 1000 HLM and indicate I have 1 masternode with them, it shows 162.6479 monthly rewards; if I indicate I have no masternode, but am just staking, it still shows 162.6479 monthly, but as a staking reward.

Calculator on heliumchain.info calculates only the masternode rewards which are correct. With 1000 HLM you would expect to see an average of 1 stake in 24 hours. It's a lottery though so going 5-6 days without a reward could easily be the case with some bad luck.

As to me, there is no cream to speak about... I don't know about masternodes (assume they are earning well), but staking does not give me any reward at all - not a single stake for several days with wallet opened 24/7 and well-connected. The amount is not big (less than 1000 HLM), so I don't expect much, but zero reward (just one orphan stake during 5-6 days) show that earning estimations on the explorer website are completely false (they suggest 3-10 HLM daily by staking with my amount)..

I assume all rewards are going to big stakers, with smaller ones getting nothing - nowhere near values shown at calculator. Bad implementation of PoS, or bug in calculator?

EDIT: just checked once again - bingo!!! I got one stake finally! 2.5 HLM after staking for 5-6 days. Still pathetic, compared to calculator values...

lol - I remember when I wrote that 'And we're at block 1657200'. SPR took a nose dive right afterwards.. A lot changes in a year!

The community decided to go with PoS and build on PIVX code rather than Dash as was originally planned, so there is no mining at all. You can read a bit more about why this direction was chosen in the Helium FAQ:

I have some spreadcoins and will watch this thread. I just don't quite get it - is Helium designed to be poolmining-resistant ?

Analyze wallet on virystotal.com. If most antiviruses do not see the threat, this is a Avast false positive, just create exception for Avast.
