Excellion Poker Chips: Setup Guide
Setup and Installation
● Bitcoin Core
Before you can start loading your poker chips, you will need to download and install Bitcoin Core.
Once you've installed the software, begin syncing your Bitcoin node, a process that can vary in time
depending on your internet connection and hardware.
● Elements by Blockstream
Elements a client that allows you to interact with the Liquid Network. Download Elements, and begin
syncing a Liquid node. You can refer to the setup guide provided by Blockstream here. Again, this
process can be lengthy depending on connection and hardware.
● Specter Desktop
Specter Desktop is a desktop wallet interface that can be used on both Bitcoin Core and the Liquid
Network, developed by Specter Solutions. In collaboration with Specter Solutions, we have developed
a custom plugin that can be installed within the interface used to load the chips.
Setting up Specter Desktop with Bitcoin Core and Elements
Once you have installed Specter Desktop, launch the application. You will then be prompted to configure your
Bitcoin and Liquid Nodes. You will need to configure the nodes according to where they are located on your
drive. For any concerns relating to troubleshooting, please refer to the Specter guide in the link provided below.
Specter Desktop FAQ
Once your nodes have been configured with Specter, you are then able to make a new Liquid wallet within
Specter Desktop or import an existing one.
Exfund Service - Specter Desktop Plugin
Within Specter Desktop, on the left hand sidebar, you will find the option to choose and add additional plugins.
Select and install the ‘Exfund Service’ plugin with the Excellion Lion icon.
Once you have done all of the above, you can begin loading the chips. In the provided file, the documents
containing the addresses are categorized by the color names that correspond to the chips they represent.
Chips are primarily sold in sets of 25, hence why this plugin was developed to load up to 25 chips at a time.
Therefore it is recommended that they are loaded all at once, in batches separated by color/denomination. In
order to individually load them, you will need to distinguish the chips by reading the shortened address printed
below the code, or by scanning the code using Blockstream Explorer. In essence, they are paper wallets, so
they can be loaded remotely without the physical chip present.
Loading the Chips
Make sure that you have sent the necessary amount of USDt to the wallet that will be used to load the chips
along with a small amount of Liquid Bitcoin to cover network fees (2-3 USD worth will suffice). Once your
wallet has been loaded, select the installed Exfund Service Plugin.
1. You will be prompted to paste the receiving addresses or drag & drop a csv file with the appropriate
codes.
2. Once all of the destinations have been parsed into Exfund, you will need to select:
● The Liquid wallet you wish to draw funds from
● The asset type (In this case, USDt)
● Amount to be sent to each address (‘same amount’ field or manually entered if different
amounts)
○ It is recommended that you only load the chips with the same denominations
together. Otherwise, you will need to manually enter the amount for each chip
depending on the denomination.
A quick note regarding the serials for the chips. You will notice that the first number of the
corresponding serial numbers may be different. If the serial starts with:
1 = White Chips = $1 Denomination
2 = Red Chips = $5 Denomination
3 = Blue Chips = $10 Denomination
4 = Green Chips = $25 Denomination
5 = Black Chips = $100 Denomination
6 = Purple Chips = $500 Denomination
3. Scroll to the very bottom and configure your network fee preference then press ‘Continue’. At this
point, the funds will be sent to the provided addresses. You can confirm this by checking your Liquid
wallet in Specter Desktop and checking the ‘Transaction Tab’ or by pasting the receiving address into
Blockstream Explorer.
● Note that if the transaction is not processing correctly, you may need to go into your Liquid
wallet within Specter Desktop and sign for the transactions under the ‘Send’ tab.

) Does the "25 chip set" comes in a box -as in the photo- without capsules, and the "50 Capsule set" without a box but in plastic capsules?
