Getting started:
Prepare 1001 coins
You can buy it from (if you dont have the coins yet):
https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Exchange/?market=INN_BTChttps://coinsmarkets.com/trade-BTC-INNOVA.htmWindows side:
Extract downloaded windows wallet
Run innova-qt.exe
Wait for initial init
Click options -> wallet -> check "Enable coin control features" & "Show Masternodes tab"
If your coin is still in exchange, transfer at least 1001 coins back to Windows wallet.
Inside windows wallet, click file -> receiving addresses
Click new
Put a name as label for the new address
Right click the address, select copy address, click close
When there is 1001 coins inside windows wallet, click Send tab
Paste copied address in Pay To:
Amount: 1000
Click "Send" button below
Windows wallet side is done for now
Next, get Ubuntu 16.04 VPS.
Install putty & open it.
Input ip address of your vps & click open
When prompted for username, input root
When prompted for password, initial password is provided by VPS provider.
Change password by typing command passwd
Issue command "cd"
Next would be to get the auto install script, copy entire command below:
wget
https://www.dropbox.com/s/srl70ieh1afp224/Script.shGo to putty & paste (right click mouse button)
Type command below after gotten auto install script:
chmod -R 755 Script.sh
./Script.sh
Wait for around 1 hour time for installation to complete.
At the end of the script, it would generate masternode private key for you.
Copy the key by highlighting the text (putty will auto copy when you highlight the text)
Back to windows, open notepad
Paste the private key earlier onto notepad
Back to windows wallet
Click tools -> debug console
Issue command "masternode outputs"
For output, there would be 1 long text (transaction id) & 1 single digit number at the end (output index)
Copy the output to notepad
Back to windows wallet
Click tools -> open masternode configuration file
Fill in new line with template as below:
Masternode-Alias[space]VPS-IP-address:14520[space]private-key-from-vps[space]transaction-id[space]output-index
Save & close
Close Windows wallet & open again
Wait till complete sync, click masternodes, click my masternodes, click the masternode that you want to activate, click Start alias
After activating, you would see Pre Enabled status, wait for around 30 minutes time & it should display as Enabled
You are all done & wait for your first reward (around 24 hours time).
Donation is appreciated.
