My Question:
OPTIONAL
6.) Creating EARNINGS Wallet:
a.) Type the following commands: mkdir earnings (click enter) [Please notice the name of the directory now... this is the EARNINGS directory and this is where you could send all your SHOCK earnings if you wish to keep them separate from your MAIN SPENDABLE wallet.]
d.) Type the following commands: w6xupxtrabytes-qt.exe -datadir=earnings (click enter) [Now a new version of the XtraBYtes wallet will start and this will be empty (assuming you have coins in your MAIN "spendable" wallet) and therefore it is a completely different wallet.]
e.) Copy-paste your RECEIVE address and IDENTIFY it as your EARNINGS wallet.
f.) You can use this wallet address for your STaTiC registration and if you have multiple wallets, you can use this same address for all your SHOCK rewards to be deposited from each of your STaTiC nodes.
Should this receive adress from step 6) be inserted in the spendable wallet address of the static nodes?
g.) Close the wallet
Yes, this is done if you wish to have a SEPARATE wallet to know your income without having to sift through your transactions on the MAIN wallet.
Keep in mind that when you download the QT for the first time, this creates a wallet... this is what we call the MAIN wallet and this can also be your SPENDABLE wallet if you do not wish to create another. The system will default to this address for payment if you do not specify the EARNINGS wallet for payment in the STaTiC node setup.
