Frame Node Setup Guide

This guide will walk you through the steps to set up a node on the Guus network.

Requirements

  1. Guus Tokens: You must have a minimum of 120,000 Guus tokens to stake for node setup.
  2. Guus Wallet: Download the Guus wallet from guus.org.
  3. System Requirements:
  4. Ensure your system meets the hardware and OS requirements as listed on the official website.

2. Start the Node

  1. Open a terminal and navigate to the Guus directory.
  2. Run the following command to start your node in frame mode:

    ./guusd --frame

  3. Allow the node to sync with the network. This may take some time as it downloads the blockchain blocks.

3. Register Your Node

Once the blocks are fully synced, proceed with the registration:

  1. Type the following command:

    prepare_registration

  2. You should see the following message:

    Current staking requirement: 120000.000000000 guus Will the operator contribute the entire stake? (Y/Yes/N/No/C/Cancel):

  3. Enter 'Y' to confirm that you will be contributing the full stake.

4. Enter Your Guus Address

  1. You will then see a prompt:

    Enter the guus address for the solo staker (B/Back/C/Cancel):

  2. Enter your Guus wallet address here.

5. Confirm Registration Details

A summary will be displayed showing the staking and contribution details:

This registration must be submitted to the blockchain before the expiration time (e.g., 2024-11-22 08:15:05 PM).

Notes

  • Make sure to double-check the clock on your computer to ensure the registration does not expire.
  • The registration typically lasts about two weeks, or up to two years if set to auto-stake.

Once registered, your node will start contributing to the network. You are now ready to operate a fully functional Guus frame node!
