A few days ago, I've setup a dogecoin node on my dedicated server. Thanks to who motivated me to do so.
It's so easy
You can do it in 5 minutes. You can do it on your desktop computer too, and have a windowed interface with dogecoin-qt.
Download and install the software
These commands are a for a Linux terminal.
# wget https://github.com/dogecoin/dogecoin/releases/download/v1.14.6/dogecoin-1.14.6-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz
# tar -xvf dogecoin-1.14.6-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz
# cd dogecoin-1.14.6/bin/
# install -m 0755 -o root -g root -t /usr/local/bin *
Start the node
# dogecoind -daemon
That's all !
You have now a wallet located in ~/.dogecoin/wallet.dat.
Get balance
# dogecoin-cli listaccounts
{
"": 0.00000000
}
Get the dogecoin address
Don't hesitate to tip me !
# dogecoin-cli getaccountaddress ""
D6P8uDo7wPRXtNCGuUVnSH8sa5r6EKuhZg
Get the associated private key
The following key is evidently not the right one.
# dogecoin-cli dumpprivkey D6P8uDo7wPRXtNCGuUVnSH8sa5r6EKuhZg
D6P8uDo7wPRXtNCGuUVnS8uDo7wPRXtNCGuUVnSH8sa5r6EKuhZg
You now have to wait many hours before the blockchain to be synchronized. You can check it with a blockchain explorer https://blockchair.com/dogecoin/
# dogecoin-cli getblockcount
4487748
# dogecoin-cli getconnectioncount
26
Once synchronized, the blockchain takes about 60GB.
# du -sh ~/.dogecoin/*

A Hive witness is unfortunately too heavy for my hardware. Maybe I'll do it later.
