-
Create an address with a label MN1 and send exactly the collateral amount to it (consult the collateral table). Wait to complete 6 confirmations on “ Payment to yourself “ created.

Open the Debug Console ( Tools – Debug Console ) and type createmasternodekey. You will then receive your private key, save it in a txt to use it later.
Example: createmasternodekey w8723KqiiqtiLH6y2ktjfwzuSrNucGAbagpmTmCn1KnNEeQTJKf
-
Still at Debug Console type getmasternodeoutputs and save txhash and outputidx on a txt
Example: "txhash" : "12fce79c1a5623aa5b5830abff1a9feb6a682b75ee9fe22c647725a3gef42saa", "outputidx" : 0
On Putty
- Once logged in your vps, copy/paste each line one by one with Enter
wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/__GITHUB_ACCOUNT__/__GITHUB_REPOSITORY__/master/contrib/masternodesetup/masternodesetup.sh
bash masternodesetup.sh
-
Let this run, and when it ask you to install dependencies, if you're not sure press y and then enter
-
It will take some time and then will ask to compile the Daemon, press y and then enter
-
Last thing script will ask you is to provide Masternode Genkey. Copy the one you got previously (createmasternodekey) and press enter.
Remember to do birake-cli getblockcount
to check if VPS catching blocks till it synced with chain, if not follow this procedure:
-
Go to your wallet-qt and check peers list (tools - peers list) and select one ip from the list. With that ip do the follow command at VPS
birake-cli addnode "ip" onetry
Example: birake-cli addnode 45.32.144.158 onetry
-
Check now if VPS already downloading blocks with the command
birake-cli getblockcount
, and if yes give it time now to catch last block number
Do not close your terminal/ command prompt window at this point.
Go back to your Local Wallet
- Open the Masternode Configuration file (tools – open masternode configuration file) and add a new line (without #) using this template (bold needs to be changed) in the final save it and close the editor

Example: startmasternode alias 0 MN1
Go back to Putty
birake-cli getmasternodestatus
