Hello guys,
today I would write short article for advanced users, how to stake Electra coin (basically any POS coin) in linux, ubuntu in VPS.
- First, install Electra to your server (be sure you got pre-requisites):
git clone https://github.com/electra01/Electra.git
cd Electra/src
make -f makefile.unix
sudo cp ./Electrad /usr/local/bin
Electrad -deamon
- Then we need to create config file, as Electra neeed:
nano ~/.Electra/Electra.conf
contents:
rpcuser=WriteHereYourUserName
rpcpassword=WriteHereYourPassword
listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=5788

- We need to start daemon, co we can encrypt wallet:
Electrad -daemon
- It is good, if we encrypt our wallet with strong password, Electra will quit, so we start it again
Electrad encryptwallet "strongpassword"
Electrad -daemon
- Next step is to create deposit address and transfer Electra coin there:
Electrad getaccountaddress 0
- we have to wait for blockchain synced, we can get latest block in some block explorer, I used https://cryptobe.com/chain/Electra, to see which block is syncing we can type and look for "blocks" info:
Electrad getinfo
- To be sure, transaction was successful and synced type:
Electrad listtransactions
- Ok, we have some coins now in wallet, let's stake them by unlocking wallet for stake only:
Electrad walletpassphrase "strongpassword" 999999999
- To check if we are staking the coins, (they need to be 'Mature', which means, they have to be in wallet at least for 24 hours):
Electrad getstakinginfo
- Two important info is:
"enabled" : true,
"staking" : true,
- Now you should get your mined coins to your wallet, check with
Electrad listtransactions
Some more information can be found in official staking guide:

Happy staking
