ECOin

P2P Ecological Crypto-Currency — A long-term energy-efficient digital economy strategy

Website | Block Explorer | SolarNET.HuB

Overview

ECOin is a P2P crypto-currency with the goal of providing a long-term energy-efficient digital economy strategy.

It uses the SCRYPT algorithm and is the only crypto in the market that implements three different mining systems simultaneously:

Proof-Of-Work (PoW) — Traditional CPU mining
Proof-Of-Stake (PoS) — Variable interest based on coin age
Proof-Of-Transaction (PoT) — Mining by matching address segment to block hash on transactions > 500 ECO

ECOin includes Zerocoin privacy extensions for enhanced transaction privacy.

# Install dependencies
sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libdb5.3-dev libdb5.3++-dev \
  libleveldb-dev qt5-qmake qtbase5-dev

# Clone
git clone https://github.com/epsylon/ecoin
cd ecoin/ecoin/

# Build Wallet (GUI)
qmake USE_UPNP=- USE_IPV6=-
make
./ecoin-qt

# Build Daemon (headless server)
cd src/
make -f makefile.linux USE_UPNP=- USE_IPV6=-
strip ecoind
./ecoind

Pre-built Packages

Pre-built .deb packages are available for:

ANDROID (APK) — Wallet + Daemon
AMD64 (x86_64) — Wallet + Daemon
ARM64 (aarch64) — Daemon

See the Releases page.

Configuration

Create ~/.ecoin/ecoin.conf (chmod 600):

rpcuser=ecoinrpc
rpcpassword=<YOUR_SECURE_PASSWORD>
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
testnet=0
noirc=1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
staking=1
addnode=46.163.118.220

Bootstrap.dat

ECOin is using a bootstrap.dat binary file containing blockchain data, from the genesis block through first checkpoint that allows new wallets to synchronize the first blocks without the need to connect to the network or wait for the peers to send the beginning of the blockchain.

This file must be placed next to the configuration file (~/.ecoin/ecoin.conf).

Download bootstrap.dat.

Mining

Solo mining with the built-in CPU miner:

# Terminal 1: Start wallet or daemon
./ecoin-qt
# or: ./ecoind -daemon

# Terminal 2: Start miner
cd miner/ && sh build.sh
./cpuminer -o http://127.0.0.1:7474 -O ecoinrpc:<password> --coinbase-addr=<YOUR_ECOIN_ADDRESS> -a scrypt

See MINING and REWARDS for details.
