A step by step guide how to create own Adeptio Masternode Server
There are different ways to set-up a masternode. This method requires a Virtual Private Server, eliminating the need to run your own computer 24/7. Your funds are stored on cold wallet not VPS. A safe and secure mechanism for your investment.
The following requirements are needed to set-up a adeptio coin masternode:
Requirements
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Server.
- CPU: 1 fast core or more
- Memory: 1024MB or higher
- Disk: 20GB or higher
- Network: 100 Mbps or faster
- Static IPv4 or IPv6
- Coins: 10 000 ADE. (You can buy it here)
Setup:
Login with ssh to your virtual machine, server or computer. You can use regular user with sudo rights (safer) or root. For example:
ssh [email protected]
or if you are using putty sofware:
Once we logged in to VPS we should see something similar:
Now we can use installation scripts from official adeptio github repository.
You can manually review installation script code:
If you want to setup IPv4 cold masternode – copy the following line and paste to linux VPS console:
cd ~/ && sudo apt-get install curl -y && bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adeptio-project/adeptio/master/scripts/setup_adeptio_cold_masternode_ipv4_latest.sh) | tee ~/adeptio_masternode_installation.log
If you want to setup IPv6 cold masternode – copy the following line and paste to linux VPS console:
cd ~/ && sudo apt-get install curl -y && bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adeptio-project/adeptio/master/scripts/setup_adeptio_cold_masternode_ipv6_latest.sh) | tee ~/adeptio_masternode_installation.log
Next follow instructions during installation. You should get this message at some point:
Shutting down daemon, reconfiguring adeptio.conf, we want to know your cold wallet masternodeprivkey (example: 7UwDGWAKNCAvyy9MFEnrf4JBBL2aVaDm2QzXqCQzAugULf7PUFD), please input now:
Minimize your VPS window, open your adeptio coin GUI wallet from Windows/macOS/Linux:
Wait for wallet sync’ 100%.
Make sure you have 10 001 ADE or more in your wallet. (You can buy it here)
Click Tools > Debug Console
Type in to Console:
getnewaddress
Copy new address from the console output (this is your new wallet address).
Send exactly 10 000 ADE to new wallet address you just created. (Please note: you are sending coins from yourself to yourself. From one wallet address to another)
Once sent, again Click Tools > Debug Console and type:
masternode genkey
Copy the output to notepad. This is your masternode privkey. Minimize your GUI wallet window.
Maximize your Linux VPS window which asks to insert a masternode privkey and paste it. Click enter.
Wait for auto installer finishes the setup it could take for a while until you get the result:
Setup completed. Please start a masternode from Cold Wallet
Copy “Your external IP addr” to notepad.
Close your Linux VPS window. Maximize your GUI wallet window once again.
Click Tools > Debug Console and type:
masternode outputs
Copy the output to notepad.
Before you can close the adeptio GUI wallet you should have had coppied this information:
Your external IP addr of VPS
Masternode outputs result
Masternode genkey result
Close adeptio GUI wallet. We need to edit the config file in adeptio content folder.
For Linux open a file: ~/.adeptio/adeptio.conf
For Windows open a file: C:\Users{Your User Name}\AppData\Roaming\ADE\adeptio.conf
Paste at the bottom this text and save the file:
masternode=1
masternodeprivkey=PasteYourMasternodeGenkeyResultHere
Close it. Open another file in the same directory. If it not exist – create it. File called: masternode.conf
For Linux: ~/.adeptio/masternode.conf
For Windows: C:\Users{Your User Name}\AppData\Roaming\ADE\masternode.conf
Once opened, delete all the content and paste new one:
YourMasternodeName YourexternalIPaddrofVPS:9077 MasternodeGenkeyresult MasternodeOutputsResult 0 or 1
YourMasternodeName – could be anything. For example: mymn1
Save the file and close it. Start GUI wallet. Wait for sync’ 100%. Click masternode tab. You should see a masternode you just created. Click Tools > Debug Console and type:
masternode start-alias yourMasterNodeNameHere
Wait for half an hour and check if it’s on masternode list:
