Crowdnode-cli NPM

CrowdNode CLI

CrowdNode allows you to become a partial MNO - staking Dash to earn interest, participate in voting, etc.

This cross-platform CrowdNode CLI enables you to privately manage your stake via their KYC-free Blockchain API.

CLI Usage

CrowdNode staking is managed with a permanent staking key.

The Dash you stake can NOT be retrieved without this key!

QuickStart

If you want to do everything, all at once:

crowdnode stake 10.0

Or, if you already have a key with a balance to deposit:

# Save a key from dash-cli or Dash Core's Debug Console to a file for import:
#    walletpassphrase "YOUR PASSHRASE" 300
#    dumprivkey XxYOURxADDRESSx
#
# Use as your CrowdNode CLI wallet:

crowdnode stake ./your-staking-key.wif

This will:

Generate a new staking key, or Import from an existing wallet
Load the key with Dash
Sign up & Accept the CrowdNode's Terms
Deposit

Note: I recommend printing a Paper Wallet (WIF QR) and putting it your safe.

Step-by-Step

Generate or Import a permanent staking key:

# Generate a new key in your CrowdNode CLI wallet:
crowdnode generate

# Save a key from dash-cli or Dash Core's Debug Console to a file for import:
#    walletpassphrase "YOUR PASSHRASE" 300
#    dumprivkey XxYOURxADDRESSx
#
# Import to the CrowdNode CLI wallet:
crowdnode import ./your-key-file.wif.txt

Load the amount of Dash you wish to stake, plus a little extra for fees:
```
crowdnode load 0.503
```
(you can load a balance via QR Code, Dash URL, and Payment Address)

Send the Sign Up request and the CrowdNode Terms of Service:

# Sign Up sends Đ0.00151072 to create your account
crowdnode signup

# Accept sends Đ0.00085536 to accept terms and enable deposits
crowdnode accept

Deposit a test stake (in DASH)

# Create a test deposit:
crowdnode deposit 0.01

# Stake the remaining balance:
crowdnode deposit

# Load and stake another Đ10:
crowdnode deposit 10.0

Note: CrowdNode requires a minimum stake of Đ0.5 to earn interest.

You can withdraw from 1.0% to 100.0% of your stake at any time, and transfer to an address in another wallet:

# Withdraw 5.0%
crowdnode withdraw 5.0

# Transfer your balance
crowdnode transfer XxYOURxOTHERxADDRESSx
