Setting up a masternode – how to do it?

By FuturoCoin on FeaturesFuturoCoinSolutionsTechnology

Setting up a masternode involves having a specified quantity of coins. Also, you have to own a wallet that integrates your computer as one node operating with blockchain. Masternodes allows using many functions, like doing an anonymous, immediate payment, voting on a significant development. Masternodes operators and miners earn 45% of block awards. Our cryptocurrency has its own rules of origin and conditions which establish and maintain masternode.

Setting up a masternode is the most expensive part of procedures. This cost of operation keeps the network decentralized. Moreover, every reward motivates masternode’s operators to keep their nodes in proper conditions. Masternodes are backups to additional functionality like the implementation of immediate transactions and the development of technical and financial blockchain.

Masternodes can be run by everybody but there is a barrier to entry, which ensures protection against attacks on a network. You have to hold a determined amount of coins that are blocked for the time of masternode’s work. If you want to become masternode you also have to possess a VPS server to support wallet 24 hours a day, unique IP address, enough disc space to store the blockchain, and at least basic knowledge needed to configure wallet and server. Additionally, every cryptocurrency and masternodes requires having a determined quantity of coins. It ensures vested network interest and protects against any inappropriate behavior.

How to run a Masternode step by step:

  1. Download the wallet with FuturoCoin and wait for synchronization.
  2. Now you have to order a dedicated IP address – you need it to connect to your masternode.
  3. Open the router port, necessary to work with the masternode. Contact the vendor to check if the ports are blocked or not. If so, ask to open a specific port. If not, open it out the router.
  4. Now download the explicit Masternode instruction of adaptation from the FTO’s website and check out how many coins you need to run masternode.
  5. Buy the determined amount of coins on the market and send them to the wallet on your computer. Then you have to synchronize blockchain with computer and create node address.
  6. At that time coins are sent to this address which allows gaining private key and data transactions to configure a node. The last step is creating a server working 24 hours a day. Then you can run it using your wallet.

Masternodes require initial investments which sometimes are too high for users. If you don’t have enough coins to buy the whole masternode you can invest in masternode pool with another user. Then gained award divides into all participants. The height of the award is based on the policy of FuturoCoin.

Masternodes can generate passive income without investing in specialized hardware. The appropriate cryptocurrency and the required barrier of entry ultimately determine which investments have to exist in order to be able to acquire Masternode. Several factors affect the level of the expected earnings: the exchange rate of the relevant currency and a Return on Investment. It means, how profits change in relation to the investment made. It is obvious that masternodes are a forward-looking method of investment.
