I want to stake my CBX, however I do not want to leave my PC on all night. I want to install it on my Linux vpx. Is it possible to stake on my VPS, and how? Or do I have to install the GUI?
Hello,
Yes you can install it on your VPS, I would recommend Ubuntu for OS.
There is no GUI, you will have to admin it through RPC command with commandline.
Here is the guide to compile the daemon on Linux:
https://github.com/cryptogenicbonds/CryptoBullion-CBX/blob/master/doc/build-unix.md

Then you have to learn how to use RPC, I would recommend you to search a tutorial about Bitcoin RPC, it works the same way.

Could someone link me to a tutorial? I have compiled the daemon and want to know how to use it. Bitcoin is PoW, so I don't know how the command line arguments for the things I need, like staking. (Will it just be getstakeinfo?)

Also, I tried using the CBX Windows client. I download the bootstrap and open up the wallet again, and it starts syncing like normal. Then it just freezes. Connected to 8 nodes, but not syncing any blocks. Huh? I've terminated and relaunched multiple instances for this to happen. This is why I'm trying my luck on the daemon.

Would it be better if I did something like put "prune = 550" in my CryptoBullion.conf? Does CBX support pruning?
