What is BoxWallet?

BoxWallet is a multi-coin CLI tool, that gets your coin-of-choice wallet/node set-up fast, with just a few commands:

./boxwallet coin - allows you to choose your coin of choice, which then downloads the project's core files from their official website, and installs them automatically.

./boxwallet start - starts the coin's daemon, which syncs the Blockchain.

./boxwallet dash - displays a dashboard with the coins Blockchain and wallet info.

How can I install BoxWallet?

Windows

Download the file boxwallet_XXX_Windows_64bit.zip where XXX represents the latest version number. Extract the files, open a command prompt, then run boxwallet coin

Linux

I'm going to assume that you've got a basic CLI Linux installation, and have SSH access.

Go to the page: https://github.com/richardltc/boxwallet/releases/latest and find the correct Linux file for your platform. If you are running normal Linux, you'll almost certainly want the file ending in Linux_64bit.tar.gz However, if you're running on a Raspberry Pi, you'll probably want the file ending in Linux_arm32bit.tar.gz unless you're running a 64bit OS, in which case, you'll need the file ending in Linux_arm64.tar.gz

In your browser, right-click on the correct file you need and choose "copy link", then, in your Linux terminal, type wget then paste the link after it.

If the version of BoxWallet was 0.53.6 you should now have a line of text that looks like the following:

wget https://github.com/richardltc/boxwallet/releases/download/0.53.6/boxwallet_0.53.6_Linux_64bit.tar.gz

Press return, and the command wget should now download that file to you current directory.

Next, enter the command:

tar -xf ./boxwallet then, without a space, press the tab key to auto-complete the command line. You should then have a line that says:

tar -xf ./boxwallet_0.53.6_Linux_64bit.tar.gz

Press return, and you should then have the following files:

boxwallet - The BoxWallet application.

bwupdater - The tool that you can run to keep BoxWallet up-to-date.

README.md - This file.

How do I run?

Download BoxWallet, for your platform of choice, from the releases page, extract the files to a location of your choosing and then run ./boxwallet coin.

This will download the official binaries from the coin's project website, and install them automatically for you.

Then run ./boxwallet start, to start the coin's daemon server.

Then ./boxwallet dash, where you will be greeted with an initial wizard to get you going, followed by a dashboard.

OK, but what else can BoxWallet do?

• Creates an initial wallet from scratch, for the coin of your choosing.

• Takes you through an initial wizard to ensure your wallet is secure.

• boxwallet coin - Installs the official coin project CLI files, and creates a new wallet.
