STARTING CHAINCOIN CLIENT

====================
FINISH UP INSTALL
====================
-- If you think your wallet is taking a long time to sync, type in "chaincoin-cli getblockchaininfo", and look for headers. The headers need to reach current number of blocks before the actual blocks start syncing. Patience is key! --

-- If your wallet fails to sync with masternode list, shut it down, delete peers.dat and restart. You can check the progress by typing "chaincoin-cli mnsync status". Sometimes a quick restart is all you need to get data syncing--

You should now be able to complete your new Chaincoin 16.1 masternode install. Like I mentioned, this is not a full tutorial and you should already be familiar with setting up masternodes.

If you need additional help, you can refer back to my previous detailed masternode tutorial
