This page will guide you through the process of setting up your very own mining pool for XKR! Mining pools are essential for keeping the kryptokrona network happy and decentralized.
The node daemon will start " Imported block with index xxxx" and then sync the missing block with up to the current height of the blockchain. This will take some time. Wait to you see the "Successfully synchronized with the kryptokrona Network." Also the ascii loggo will show :D
ctrl+a to exist the screen session
If you want to go back to the screen session use: "screen -rd" this will list the current sessions running.
Then add the one you want sample: screen -rd 1337.node
Create pool wallet.
If you already have a wallet you could import the seed for that. Not covered in this guide.
./xkrwallet
Chose option 2 to create
Sample:
What would you like to do?: 2
What would you like to call your new wallet?: Pool
Give your new wallet a password: **********
Confirm your new password: **********
Welcome to your new wallet, here is your payment address:

Please copy your secret keys and mnemonic seed and store them in a secure location:
Private spend key:

Private view key:

Mnemonic seed:
building building building building cent peaches ostrich washing dexterity highway tsunami tumbling request punch rest reorder cuddled alchemy jittery request uttered lamb opus portents punch
If you lose these your wallet cannot be recreated!
Note: This is fake , but remember to store you info in a secure place. Not on the VPS or pool server.
exit the wallet
Create a XKR wallet script and start in a other "screen" session.
If you get the problem with the dateformat.js when starting pool. Edit the "package.json" and change changing the "dateformat": "*" to "dateformat": "4.5.1" in package.json, and run "npm update" again to fixed the issue. also change the git url to include "git+https://" like below.
Important run "npm update" after this change. Also "npm audit fix --force"
ctrl+a to exist the screen session
exit the pool user session
Use the sample website that comes with the pool under "website". In this guide webroot is pointing to "/var/www/html/pool"
Update the "config.js" in webroot to point to your API and add XKR explorer
Sample:
var api = "https://poolhostname.domain.tld/api/";
let parentCoin = ""
var email = "support@poolhost.com";
var telegram = "https://t.me/YourPool";
var discord = "https://discordapp.com/invite/YourPool";
var facebook = "https://www.facebook.com/<YourPoolFacebook>";
var marketCurrencies = ["{symbol}-BTC", "{symbol}-LTC", "{symbol}-DOGE", "{symbol}-USDT", "{symbol}-USD", "{symbol}-EUR", "{symbol}-CAD"];
var blockchainExplorer = "https://explorer.kryptokrona.se/?hash={id}#blockchain_block";
var transactionExplorer = "https://explorer.kryptokrona.se/?hash={id}#blockchain_transaction";
var blockchainExplorerMerged = "";
var transactionExplorerMerged = "";
var themeCss = "themes/default.css";
var defaultLang = 'en';
Install you favorite webserver
If you want to support TLS on pool ports, copy your files to filename cert.pem, privkey.pem (no password) and chain.pem (or change in pool config.json) to the pool directory to replace the sample files. Remember to do this also after renewal. Follow the latest cert-bot if you need a certificate.
Sample Nginx
sudo apt install nginx
Create the nginx pool config.
sudo vi /etc/nginx/sites-available/pool
Content in this sample with SSL certificate from Lets Replace "hostname.domain.tld" with your pool hostname and domain.
