Re: [ANN][SLR] SolarCoin | PoW to PoS v. 2.0 | Solar Proof of Generation (§1 = 1MWh)

Hi all, looking for some help with my Raspberry Pi nodes; they only run solarcoind daemon not SolarCoin-Qt, is therea way to load the bootstrap of the blockchain?
I tried unzipping bootstrap.zip into .solarcoin directory but that didnt work. I set the solarcoin.conf with server=1 and daemon=1 as well. I tried starting solarcoind -rescan and solarcoind -loadblock=/home/pi/.solarcoin/bootstrap/blk0001.dat

Any ideas? Im making a new Raspberry Pi node for a friend and syncing the block-chain takes days.

You might have better luck taking your question to the slack channel.

Thanks I had asked on Telegram and Slack a few months ago, I realised I had not checked in with this forum though so thought it was worth asking.

If anyone wants to build a Raspberry Pi node, the instructions are on: https://github.com/Scalextrix/SolarCoin-Raspberry-Pi-Node

This is exactly what I was looking for! Great work! Thank you for taking the time to make this

Cool, lets run SolarCoin on low power! We may have someone trying on a Pi Zero soon, will update if it works.

This is def. the way to go. Although my intel PC stick has been doing a great Job! Im going to setup the raspberry Pi node as soon as I find the time. Does the raspberry pi Zero use even less power than the normal PI?
