Re: WAVES - Complete Blockchain ecosystem for a token economy

Which guide did you guys go to?
How many collateral tokens does it need to set it up? Or is this just same as leasing your waves token?

At first looked at 'How to install a node'
https://docs.wavesplatform.com/waves-full-node/how-to-install-a-node/how-to-install-a-node.html

But this part was pretty easy.

Then I tried to understand and configure MatcherPublicKey and so. But I don't get WTF is a matcher, how do we use it, do we connect to another, or do we run our own matcher.
https://docs.wavesplatform.com/waves-full-node/how-to-configure-a-node.html

# Network address
   bind-address = "0.0.0.0"

  # Matcher settings
  matcher {
   # Enable/disable matcher
   enable = no
  # Matcher's account address
   account = ""

# Hash of API key string
   api-key-hash = "H6nsiifwYKYEx6YzYD7woP1XCn72RVvx6tC1zjjLXqsu"

There is a serious lack of information about what are these parameters.

My goal is to be able to post some orders this way:

Even if I don't need to setup a complete node with matcher, I want to understand how the technology works.
Doesn't make sense to say 'Waves is so great' without knowing how it really works.
