LOCAL MASTERNODE SETUP GUIDE

Static public IP and open Firewall ports are essential to run a Masternode!

Run wallet and let it fully sync.

Go to Tools -> Debug Console.

In the Console window enter getaccountaddress MN and copy the result.

This is your MASTERNODE DEPOSIT ADDRESS, where you will deposit 10000 CCY to create a masternode.

Send 10000 CCY exactly to this address. No more, no less.

In the Console Debug window enter masternode genkey - this is your MASTERNODE PRIVKEY.

Go to Tools -> Open Wallet Configuration File. Open the file in Notepad. Then paste in the following lines.

masternode=1
masternodeprivkey=(MASTERNODE PRIVKEY)
externalip=(yourpublicIP)
server=1
rpcuser=(yourrandomusername)
rpcpassword=(yourrandompassword)
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
masternodeaddr=127.0.0.1:5535

Now save and close the file.

In the Console Debug window enter masternode outputs these are your MASTERNODE OUTPUT txhash and outputidx.

Go to Tools -> Open Masternode Configuration File. Open the file in Notepad. Then paste:

masternodename yourpublicip:5535 yourprivatekeygeneratedearlier txhash outputidx and replace masternodename, yourpublicip, yourprivatekeygeneratedearlier, txhash and outputidx.

It should look like:

MN 40.214.115.106:5535 88TqnWpr53JfkxubvZtQZNkFVWpZ5KHewHNtXzQNwh1pzMpt84t 31e9733f33cc1e370957a6845bf013bd016c896907a9d6f7b97ee32c072ca182 0 .

Now save and close the file.

Restart wallet.

Wait till 10000 CCY transaction has minimum 15 confirmations.

Go to Masternodes tab, select masternode named MN and press Start.

You should see the response:

Alias: MN

Successfully started masternode

Congratulations, your masternode is now running.

All masternodes need to be active for a certain amount of blocks before they are recognized by the network and eligible for rewards.
