Re: Best way to hold many cryptocurrencies
by

I was wondering what your suggestion to holding multiple cryptos is?

Obviously I don't want to hold even medium amounts of the stuff on exchanges, but it's incredibly tedious to have to download separate wallets for my computer, synchronize everything and.... well, yeah.

What's your strategy on this?

For holding long term higher value coins I use paper wallets because they look nice when made well and feel like an asset on their own. I also own a KeepKey which is great for general use.


For other alt coins I:

  • download the wallet software on to a sandbox virtual machine
  • generate an encrypted wallet
  • transfer coins to the wallet and confirm via a block explorer
  • backup the wallet on an encrypted container

And when it's time to spend:

  • install wallet on to VM
  • find a recent blockchain bootstrap for faster syncing if available
  • find a list a nodes/peers to add to the config for faster syncing
  • restore wallet from backup

It's also worth taking a note of useful websites for each coin you store, such as:

  • Official website
  • Bitcointalk main thread
  • Block explorers
  • Bootstrap files
  • Configurations/Instructions

And you can keep a neat file structure like:

ENCRYPTED_STORAGE/wallets/COIN/
ENCRYPTED_STORAGE/wallets/COIN/wallet.dat
ENCRYPTED_STORAGE/wallets/COIN/coin.conf
ENCRYPTED_STORAGE/wallets/COIN/readme.txt (useful websites and info for coin)

Use something like dm-crypt, VeraCrypt (TrueCrypt fork), or some other form of encryption to store the data.

I just got minted approx. 7.74 PIV.

But now it displays "Stacking is not active".

I believe you need to wait again for the new coins to mature before staking restarts.

I have no idea, I am new to masternoding too  Grin

Hopefully, someone with more experience can answer.

To hijack your list of questions and add my own, can the masternode rewards be staked to earn both masternode and staking rewards?

Excellent. No problem. Glad it's working. Smiley FYI, it took about 2-3 days before I saw any payments. Now it is steady each day.

I think, for the record, if you need to use your IPv6 address then it will need to be wrapped in square brackets because the port designation uses the colon as well as the IPv6 address.

Eg.
masternodeaddr=[1fff:0:a88:85a3::ac1f]:51472

masternodeaddr=:51472
when i put this WITH the :51472 at the end of my exernal ip, it gives me an error
when i dont it says it says invalid port - 0
do i need to use the <> ? it gives me invalide masternode addresss when i do and show my external ip

No, sorry no wrapping with the <>.

So just, for example:
masternodeaddr=1.2.3.1:51472
when i put it like this, i get this error: invalid masternode address
is it IPV6 external address or IPV4?

I'm using IPV4 address.

Got me worried now, so I have just updated my masternode.conf to include the external IP. Was working and paying fine before, but just taking note of your information.

Thanks.

You shouldn't need the port number in the Darknet.conf file (but won't hurt to add it) but you will need the port number in the masternode.conf file. You can not use loopback addresses, or internal IP addresses as the external/masternode/bond or you will have issues as your nodes will be banned from the network.

Thanks for clarifying. Will keep that in mind if I decide to run multiple masternodes.

Unsure why it didn't work without specifying the port though since reading the thread very few people have encountered the issue and would have expected the OP to have been updated if it were wrong. Found the answers through some example DASH masternode configs and they all showed : in a single masternode setup and since then it has worked - so not going to touch the config now Smiley.

Step 4 in the single masternode setup has an error in it. Where it says should also include the port. This took me a few hours to figure out and kept giving me the 0 port error.

Here is my darknet.conf
Code:
addnode=108.61.151.69
addnode=173.245.158.8
addnode=coin-server.com
addnode=185.117.72.180
addnode=164.132.25.216
addnode=5.39.8.251
addnode=164.132.143.9
addnode=46.8.44.81
addnode=104.172.24.79
addnode=2.230.243.216
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
port=51472
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256
rpcuser=s0methingCrazyAndRandom
rpcpassword=s0methingCrazyAndRandom
rpcport=51470
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
masternodeaddr=:51472
masternode=1
masternodeprivkey=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXyourMasternodePrivkeyXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I also added to the file for masternodes.conf (not sure if this was necessary for a single node):
Code:
# Masternode config file
# Format: alias IP:port masternodeprivkey collateral_output_txid collateral_output_index
# Example: mn1 127.0.0.2:51474 93HaYBVUCYjEMeeH1Y4sBGLALQZE1Yc1K64xiqgX37tGBDQL8Xg
MasterNode 127.0.0.1:51472 masternodeprivkey collateral_output_txid collateral_output_index

Mine the most profitable then spread your risk by using the mined coin to buy other coins.

The EXPANSE LIFE concept seems interesting if you haven't seen it already:
http://blog.expanse.tech/post/149791717483/expanse-newsletter-vo-1-no9-912016-real

As with all these geolocation apps, it's how to prevent geo-cheating.

Will look into the other suggestions in this thread, Geocoin et al, as they sound intriguing and may help me get out the house a bit more Cheesy

No offense dude but none of these nodes are work, they are all DEAD.

Still connected to all but one over here. I did accidentally miss out the = symbol between addnode=IP but you're right, nodes will come and go as will the people.
