-
Double click the setup.exe file to install automatically
-
Alternatively run bitcoinex-qt.exe or bitcoinexd.exe without using the installer
If the wallet doesn't automatically start syncing you will need to create a .conf file.
-
Close the Wallet / Daemon
-
Create a new text file
-
Inside paste the following (changing the user and password) :
rpcuser=ChooseAUserName
rpcpassword=ChooseAStrongRandomPassword
addnode=35.189.126.61
addnode=144.217.242.223
-
Save the file as bitcoinex.conf
-
Place it inside the following DIR :
/Users/<username>/AppData/Roaming/bitcoinex
- Restart Wallet / Daemon
- Navigate to the folder where bitcoinexd is and run it :
./bitcoinexd -daemon
bitcoinex server will start and then stop saying it needs a missing config file.
In the folder you downloaded will find a file called bitcoinex.conf.example.txt
Open it and put your user and password in the correct places then save the file as bitcoinex.conf
Put this file in the following folder :
.bitcoinex
It's a hidden folder click ctrl + H to display hidden folders if you can't see it.
This is NOT a static build. It requires external libraries for it to work. If you have built other wallets on your computer before, the chances are that you will already have all of the required libraries. If not see the build docs.

Developers work in their own trees, then submit pull requests when they think their feature or bug fix is ready.
If it is a simple/trivial/non-controversial change, then one of the bitcoinex development team members simply pulls it.
If it is a more complicated or potentially controversial change, then the patch submitter will be asked to start a discussion with the devs and community.
The patch will be accepted if there is broad consensus that it is a good thing.
Developers should expect to rework and resubmit patches if the code doesn't match the project's coding conventions (see doc/coding.txt) or are controversial.
The master branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be completely stable. Tags are created regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of bitcoinex.
bitcoinex is an entirely experimental project and we offer no warranties or guarantees. Use entirely at your own risk.
