Rigvid Masternode Setup Guide

Required

  1. RIV collateral value at current block. See it in the main page.
  2. Local Wallet https://github.com/rigvid-dev/Rigvid/releases/latest
  3. VPS with UBUNTU 20.04 and above Tested on Ubuntu 20.04, 22.04 and 24.04
  4. Windows Powershell for Windows, or Terminal for Linux and Mac OS
  5. Text editor on your local pc to save data for copy/paste

On your Local Wallet

  • Create an address with a label MN1 or other label that you like and send exactly the collateral amount to it. Wait to complete 6 confirmations on “Payment to yourself“ created. Or 15 confirmations if sent from an external wallet.
  • Open the Debug Console (Tools – Debug Console) and type createmasternodekey. You will then receive your private key, save it in a text editor to use it later. 
    Example:
createmasternodekey

  • Still at Debug Console type getmasternodeoutputs and save txhash and outputidx on a text editor 
    Example:
"txhash" : "726f3c137b1c567efdbe3bf0b0a061437a8ed52e515e709868d0623b73a31aee",
"outputidx" : 0

On Powershell or Terminal

  • Once logged in your vps, copy/paste each line one by one with Enter 
    wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rigvid-dev/rigvid/master/contrib/masternodesetup/masternodesetup.sh
    chmod +x masternodesetup.sh && bash masternodesetup.sh
  • Let this run, and when it ask you to install dependencies, if you're not sure press y and then enter
  • It will take some time and then will ask to compile the Daemon, press y and then enter
  • Last thing script will ask you is to provide Masternode Genkey. Copy the one you got previously (createmasternodekey) and press enter.

Go back to your Local Wallet

  • Open the Masternode Configuration file (tools – open masternode configuration file) and add a new line (without #) using this template (bold needs to be changed) in the final save it and close the editor
