How to Setup Medic Coin Masternode VPS

Tutorial on how to setup a Medic Coin Masternode!

Things Needed:

VPS From Vultr (5$ Vps perfect . You can add more than 1 masternode on there. (Not the same masternode tho) : https://goo.gl/mxcb24

199,999 Tokens from CryptoBridge : https://wallet.crypto-bridge.org

Putty: http://www.putty.org/ ( Putty Windows users, Terminal for Mac )

Once you have created and launched your masternode VPS, login as root and create a new user using putty. The login details for your root will be emailed too you once you created the server with Vultr.

Step 1: Create Shell script & open firewall

sudo ufw allow OpenSSH
sudo ufw allow 2117
sudo ufw allow ssh/tcp
sudo ufw limit ssh/tcp
sudo ufw default deny incoming
sudo ufw default allow outgoing
sudo ufw enable

Now start!

Step 2: Update dependencies.

sudo apt-get -y update
sudo apt-get install git
git clone https://github.com/MEDICCOIN/MedicCoin.git

Step 3: Install dependencies

sudo apt-get -y update && sudo apt-get -y install build-essential libssl-dev libdb-dev libboost-all-dev libcrypto-dev libqrencode-dev libminiupnpc-dev libgmp-dev libgmp3-dev autoconf autogen automake libtool

Step4: Compile

cd MedicCoin
cd src
sudo make -f makefile.unix

Now run the Daemon

./MedicCoind -daemon

Step 5: Configure Wallet

./MedicCoind stop
cd ..
cd ..
cd .MedicCoind
sudo nano MedicCoind.conf

With Nano add the following:

rpcuser=XXXXXXXXXXXXX
rpcpassword=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
#----
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
#--------------------

Save the file.
Now we restart the wallet and we wait it the get fully synced.

Step 6: Setup Gen

./MedicCoind masternode genkey
./MedicCoind getaccountaddress 0

This address will receive your coins. Save also this one in the txt file.

Now edit Conf again:

cd ..
cd ..
cd .MedicCoind
sudo nano MedicCoind.conf

Your Conf file will look something like this:

rpcuser=SomeRandomString
rpcpassword=EvenLongerRandomString
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
port=2118
masternode=1
masternodeaddr=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:2118
masternodeprivkey=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Step 7: You need to restart the wallet now

cd ..
cd MedicCoind/src
./MedicCoind

The wallet in now ready to run the masternode

./MedicCoind getbalance
You should get 199,999 MEDIC

We can now start the masternode
./MedicCoind masternode start

P.s Now if you would like to make use of the Cold Wallet ( Windows wallet ) just install QT wallet from:
https://mediccoin.com/

You will then need to modify your Conf file to add the TX from the wallet!
