Pecunia Masternode Setup Guide Updated For Mainnet
Pecunia Masternode Setup Guide Updated For Mainnet
**Note** - Now Updated for mainnet which requires 1,000,000 Neoxa coins
This guide was originally written for Testnet, so some illustrations show 60,000 coins. In illustrations,
please assume 1,000,000 coins**
Initially, I struggled with setting up Neoxa nodes on Pecunia. While their wizard-based setup is very
intuitive, my nodes were constantly going offline for reasons I simply could not figure out. I almost gave
up on them, but their chat support representative convinced me to try again with him guiding me along.
I’m glad they did. There were a couple of things that the setup process doesn’t quite explain, and I’m
sure there would be other people (like me) that made some of the same mistakes I did.
It’s why I wrote this guide to help others avoid my mistakes, and frustration.
Prerequisites: Neoxa’s v5.1.1.4 wallet configured 1,000,000 coins per node, plus a few coins for fees
(Hit us up on our Discord, we’ll send you some)
- Copy this address, create an address label. I used “14” but any identifier you want is fine, it just
makes it easier to find the transaction later on.
- Next we will create a Fee address that will be used later in the setup of your node
Again in debug console enter “getnewaddress”
If you plan to set up more than *one* node, this next step is helpful and may avoid you from nodes that
fail shortly after setup. If you are only setting up *one* node, feel free to skip steps 3 and 4:
Step 3.) Enable Coin Control features
- Check the box for “enable coin control features” and click OK.
Step 4.) Lock Collateral Address
- Click “inputs”, then find the address with the label you just created.
- Right click and select “Lock unspent”.
You’re doing this because if you choose to create another new address, and sent 1M coins to it, coins
from an unlocked “14” wallet in this example may be used for you next “15” node collateral. You’re
locking the address so that *does not* happen.
Step 5.) Set up Pecunia hosting
- Click “host”
- Select “Neoxa mainnet” from the dropdown menu, choose the plan you wish to go with, then click
“proceed”
Note: You have *already* sent 1M coins to your collateral address, so there is no need to do the
getwalletaddress this again. All you need to at this point is find your TXID and paste it in the box
above.
Step 6.) Find your Transaction ID
Pecunia will assign a random name to your node (that you can modify later if you wish)
Do not change anything on this next page
Just click “CONTINUE”
- Click “DEPLOY SERVER”
I named mine node name to “mn_14” as this is my 14th node, but again this step is optional if you don’t
want to change it’s name.
- Click “Dashboard”
Soon you will see “click to resolve”. When you do, click that to proceed to the next step
At this point you will see a screen looking for you to add addresses.
Step 7.) Prepare addresses
On this^ screen, your Payee address is already set, but you do need an Owner/Voting address plus a fee
address.
You’ll see that address you just created. This will serve as your node’s “Owner” and “Voting” address.
Stop here for a moment because you need to send a couple of Neoxa to your fee address
- Send 2 coins to your fee address
- Click “CONTINUE”
Next screen:
*NOTE* Copy your *own* specific outputs into Pecunia…I’m only using mine as an example, your output
will be different.
- Click “CONTINUE”
Next screen…
Step 10.) Register your node
