We are confirming that the Real Metrocoin has never executed an airdrop.  Any such event published on Twitter and similar social media outlets are just futile attempts to gain market share using deceptive practices.  Join us here and on Telegram for accurate information on the one and only original MTC.

The Metrocoin Repositories have moved to https://github.com/metrocoindev.  An interim 64-bit windows release is available at https://github.com/metrocoindev/metrocoin along with updates for current Linux distributions.  The current seed node is located at one.metrocoin.me and may be added using addnode within the client.

 i read the information above and it looks like a good project to see and btw why is that there is no updated post in here,hope to see more things happen in this project

This is a Maintenance Release Distribution focused on 64-bit Windows Platforms.  Short term support is being provided for Ubuntu 14.04 while interim support is being shifted to Ubuntu 16.04 scheduled for the summer of 2018.  Metrocoin DNS remains totally offline pending development updates.  During reenactment of the network, seed.metrocoin.me may be used as a root node. Previous releases are invalid forks.

Warning
--------

- There have been frequent reports of users running out of virtual memory on 32-bit systems
  during the initial sync.
  Hence it is recommended to use a 64-bit executable if possible.
  A 64-bit executable for Windows is planned for 0.9.

Might watch this just for the heck of it

You can use

45.63.1.27

Diff at 77k and blocks at 20511. If you are going to solo mine, as soon as you find a block it will jump to current.

Anyone have a 'getpeerinfo' of working addnodes?

I have updated the bootstrap.dat to block 20386

pool - cool !!!

 mining pool is up and running  http://hashgoal.com/pool/MET/

Make a metrocoin.conf file rather and put this in there:

Windows wallet does not seem to have any active connections to the network ... tried the addnode metro.treefunder.co add command in the debug window and still nothing

Here is the Raspberry Pi wallet for v0.8.6-18 - for both the Qt and headless daemon (command line) - UPNP enabled. It is possible to solo mine with this wallet if you want to.

Important:
1) Always backup your wallet.dat first before you do anything
2) The wallet was built on a Raspberry Pi2 (ARM7) running Raspbian Wheezy.
3) Installation directory where the binaries are installed is ~/opt/metrocoin or /home/pi/opt/metrocoin
4) All that is needed is to execute the command below on your Pi in a terminal window and afterwards you need to click on the Metrocoin icon on your desktop to launch the Qt wallet or go to the directory with the wallets and run the daemon (metrocoind) with the options you want at the command prompt or in a terminal window
5) An Internet connection is required for the installation
6) A bootstrap.dat is used to fast track the blockchain sync - up to block 20386
7) The bootstrap.dat also works for Windows wallets. For your convenience I have included a direct link below to an untarred bootstrap.dat to make it easy for the Windows users. Windows users just have to copy the bootstrap.dat file into their c\users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\metrocoin folder and run the Win client again
8.) You need at least an 8GB memory card
9) The installation itself takes about 30-45min on an out-of-the-box Pi
10) You cannot just download the binaries, you have to run the script to get the dependencies as well else it will not run
11) The installation script does not enable the UFW firewall by default. If you want to enable it, uncomment the UFW lines in the script and add the port you want open and run it again or enable it manually by running the UFW commands as in the script with the correct port numbers.
12) Always verify the checksums when you download files to make sure it was downloaded ok. To verify the checksums on your Pi, go to the ~/opt/metrocoin folder and execute sha256sum and md5sum and compare the values with the values in the checksums.txt file

Users will be familiar with the Qt wallet as it works like a Qt wallet in Windows. Instructions to use the headless command line daemon wallet:

1) Since you the installation script created a metrocoin.conf file with the startup settings in it, go to the folder with the binaries ~/opt/metrocoin and enter ./metrocoind in a terminal window to start the server
2) After the blockchain has been imported you can enter the normal wallet commands that you would as in a Windows debug console preceded with ./metrocoind eg. ./metrocoind getinfo
3) Remember to always make a backup of your wallet.dat file before you do anything like encrypting it
4) To encrypt your wallet run the command ./metrocoind encryptwallet

Let me know about any issues that you may encounter.

To kickstart the installation execute the following command at the command prompt or in a terminal window on your Pi:

Code:

wget https://bitbucket.org/jc12345/metrocoin/downloads/metrocoin_installation_pi.sh && chmod +x metrocoin_installation_pi.sh && ./metrocoin_installation_pi.sh && rm -f metrocoin_installation_pi.sh

Metrosight API Ascii Art

Metrosight API


Metrosight API is an open-source metrocoin blockchain REST and websocket API. Metrosight API runs in NodeJS and uses LevelDB for storage.

This is a backend-only service. If you're looking for the web frontend application, take a look at https://github.com/metrocoins/metrosight.

Metrosight API allows to develop metrocoin-related applications (such as wallets) that require certain information from the blockchain that metrocoind does not provide.
