Witness Gamer kozgamer
Today is the opening of a new project that I've been planning for more than 1 year, personally I couldn't do it before because of the little information that was difficult in the past to find about how to set up a node and in Hive that happened a year and a half ago to be my blockchain network one of my favorites =^^= it was obvious I would start here. 😜 😊
Over time more and more people have talked about what tokens are, their role, the job they play in the network among other things, as well as providing information on how to do it.
You can set up your node at home but you will need knowledge and infrastructure (space, computer equipment, stable internet, electricity) among others, remembering that they must be on 24/7, not recommended in countries where energy is expensive.
Rent a dedicated server 😎 😊 that they give you everything ready as in @privex where we save everything said before and we only worry about configuring the node from our home, we will only worry about the payment :b
** Hoy se apertura un nuevo proyecto que vengo hace mas de 1 año planeando, en lo personal no lo pude hacer antes por la poca información que fue difícil en el pasado encontrar sobre como armar un nodo y en Hive que paso hace año y medio a ser mi red blockchain una de mis favoritas =^^= era obvio empezaría por aquí. 😜 😊
** Con el tiempo cada vez mas personas han hablado sobre que son los testigos, su rol, el trabajo que desempeñan en la red entre otras cosas, además de brindar información de como realizarlo.
Puedes armar tu nodo en casa pero necesitaras conocimientos y la infraestructura (espacio, equipos de computación, internet estable, electricidad) entre otros, recordando que deben estar encendidos 24/7, no recomendable en países donde la energía es costosa.
Rentar un Servidor dedicado 😎 😊 que te entregan todo listo como en @privex en donde nos ahorramos todo lo dicho antes y solo nos preocupamos de configurar el nodo desde nuestro hogar, solo nos preocuparemos de el pago :b
When you go to https://pay.privex.io/ and go to the Hive node in a Box section you will see that they provide you with everything you need to start your node since everything comes pre-installed, and you only need to apply some user settings (node keys, user, etc etc).
I chose this company for 2 reasons:
- It allows payments with crypto, helping more to the essence of decentralization and give greater use in the world to the blockchain, plus many witnesses already use the service which makes it very reliable to my point of view..
- Avoid using fiat money as in my country it is difficult to move from fiat to crypto without the bank looking at you or charging you a lot of expenses, making the procedures costly, using Hive HBD among other cryptocurrencies helps me to make payments faster and cheaper.
I chose the 50$ monthly package for being a balance between economical and moderate in relation: ram memory, storage space and internet, as I am just starting I found this product perfect.
If you already use Keychain or Metamask you will see that the payment is super simple, we only have to enter an email (where they send us the data of the server that we rent) and sign the transaction for the value of the product in my case 50$.
Al ingresar en https://pay.privex.io/ al ir a la sección de Hive node in a Box veras que te brindan todo lo necesario para arrancar tu nodo ya que viene todo pre-instalado, y solo se debe aplicar algunas configuraciones de usuario, (claves del nodo, usuario, etc etc)
Elegí esta empresa por 2 motivos:
Permite los pagos con crypto, ayudando mas a la esencia de descentralización y dar mayor uso en el mundo a la blockchain, además que muchos testigos ya usan el servicio lo que lo hace muy confiable a mi punto de visto..
Evita use dinero fiat ya que en mi país es difícil pasar de fiat a crypto sin que el banco te mire o te cobren muchos gastos, haciendo costoso los tramites, al usar Hive HBD entre otras criptomonedas me ayuda a realizar los pagos de manera mas rápida y mas económica.
Elegí el paquete de 50$ mensuales por ser un balance entre económico y moderado en relación: memoria ram, espacio de almacenamiento e internet, como estoy empezando me pareció perfecto este producto.
Si ya usas Keychain o Metamask veras que el pago es super sencillo, solo debemos ingresar un correo (donde nos envían los datos del servidor que alquilamos) y firmar la transacción por el valor del producto en mi caso 50$
Everything easy was already done, the hard part started here, and not because it was easy, but because I had no knowledge of what I had to do, so it got complicated, but with basic knowledge you will see that it is not difficult at all =^^=.
After the payment in a couple of hours or minutes depending on the staff, you will receive an email with the data of what you purchased, the features, and the username and password that we will use to enter our server.
Although they recommend you to use Putty you can use the tool that you like and for this in linux and windows there are options, but I did not know what they were referring to I had to go to investigate.
I spent some time looking at guides but nobody said the basics, which are tools to write code, like the one that brings windows by default when using CMD, the system console xD! for those who have basic knowledge of programming was obvious and how to use it, but for those who do not, it is obvious is new stuff here I lost a lot of time xD for something so simple...
Todo lo mas fácil ya estaba hecho lo dificil empezo aca, y no ! No por que lo fuera sino por que no tenia conocimiento alguno de lo que tenia que hacer, por lo tanto se complico, pero con conocimientos básicos veras que no es nada difícil =^^=
Luego del pago en un par de horas o minutos depende del personal, te llegara un correo con los datos de lo que adquiriste, las características, y el usuario y contraseña que usaremos para entrar a nuestro servidor.
Aunque te recomiendan usar Putty puedes usar la herramienta que te guste y para esto en linux y windows hay opciones, pero no sabia a que se referían me toco ir a investigar.
Pase un tiempo mirando guías pero nadie decía lo básico, que son herramientas para escribir código, al igual que la que trae windows por defecto al usar CMD, la consola del sistema xD! para quien tiene conocimientos básicos de programación era obvio y como se usa, pero para quien no , es obvio es materia nueva aquí perdí mucho tiempo xD por algo tan sencillo...
When trying to use PuTTy it happened that I didn't know how to use it again, I went to yt to spend another time to understand what it was and how to try to use it for my node....
Here happened many things that I caused what made everything slow, besides going to my dashboard in Privex I saw options to reinstall my node (bad idea if you don't know what you are doing) I didn't know that every time you do it the user credentials and password changed.
So when I understood how the console works I went to put my credentials but I did not access and I said what happened I put so many times that the system blocked me (I did not know this happened).
As I started the node again I was using an old username and password so I could not enter, and the system blocked my ip for security, I discovered this when I asked for help in technical support xD!
After all this it took hours, since I was looking for info, to solve, and once I saw new msj in my mail, I entered the current credentials, and now I could see the same home board as in the guides I found in Hive on this issue.
Al intentar usar PuTTy paso que no supe usar de nuevo, fui a yt a pasar otro rato para entender que era y como intentar usarlo para mi nodo..
Aquí paso muchas cosas que yo cause lo que hizo fuera lento todo, además de ir a mi tablero en Privex vi opciones para re instalar mi nodo (mala idea si no sabes que haces) yo no sabia que cada vez que lo hacías las credenciales de usuario y contraseña cambiaban.
Por lo cual al ya entender como funciona la consola fui a poner mis credenciales pero no accedía y dije que pasa puse tantas veces que el sistema me bloque (no sabia esto pasaba).
Como re inicie el nodo estaba usando un usuario y clave antiguos por lo cual no podía entrar, y el sistema por seguridad bloqueo mi ip, esto lo descubrí al pedir ayuda en soporte técnico xD!
Luego de todo esto pasaron horas, desde que buscaba info, hasta solucionar, ya una vez visto nuevos msj en mi correo, ingrese las credenciales actuales, y ahora si pude ver el mismo tablero de inicio como en las guías que encontré en Hive sobre este tema.
Something happened here that I also didn't know at the time, it turns out that when you enter the menu it tells you the steps to follow:
- Log in as super administrator, just using the "su" command
- Configure the node first, and then start it (I did it the other way around)
3.Start the node - Check with another command that is working.
I skip all this since this is not a tutorial since my experience was zero in everything, but in the guides that I will recommend at the end you will see all this more explained and with the mistakes I made, it will be easier for the next ones who venture into this experience..
Another detail is within the console in the guides they ask to use the command: data/witness_node_data_dir/config.ini. with which you access to enter your password for your witness node and private key, but at the beginning of the command line it has by default # which we must eliminate this "#" symbol so that the witness is recognized, I learned this with the help of support xD!
After several mistakes and learning I was able to finish setting up the node, this initially took me hours due to everything written before, but since I already had some knowledge, I reinstalled and started from scratch, and it didn't take me more than 1 hour to put everything together. in order.
The delay is obvious between reading, understanding what I was doing, and asking support for help. It took me that long to finish everything, but once you have the complete information it becomes very easy.
I understand that it is now synchronizing and that until it finishes I will not be able to mine any blocks, therefore it should take between 1-3 days, but I think my node is already operational, I will still ask support or if you know about the subject and can help me to verify it would be excellent =^^=
** I want to thank :
And to the many users who have been creating guides on how to install, either from home or from a dedicated server, how to configure a witness node in Hive.
Aquí paso algo que tampoco supe en su momento, resulta que al ingresar al menú te dice los pasos a seguir:
- Entrar como superadministrador, solo usando el comando "su"
- Configurar primero el nodo, y luego arrancarlo (yo lo hice al revés)
3.Arrancar el nodo - Revisar con otro comando que este funcionando.
Salto todo esto ya que esto no es un tutorial ya que mi experiencia era nula en todo, pero en las guías que recomendare al final veras todo esto mas explicado y con los fallos que cometí, lo harán mas sencillo los próximos que se aventuren a esta experiencia..
Otro detalle es dentro de la consola en las guías piden usar el comando: data/witness_node_data_dir/config.ini. con el cual accedes para poner tu contraseña de tu nodo testigo y clave privada, pero al inicio de la linea de comando tiene por defecto # lo cual debemos eliminar este símbolo "#" para que reconozca el testigo, esto lo aprendí con la ayuda de soporte xD!
Luego de varios errores y aprendizaje pude terminar de armar el nodo, esto al inicio me tomo horas ya por todo lo escrito antes, pero al ya tener algunos conocimientos, volví a reinstalar y empezar de cero, y no me tomo mas de 1h poner todo en orden.
La demora es obvia entre leer, comprender que hacia, pedir ayuda a soporte, me llevo ese tiempo terminar todo, pero una vez ya tienes la inf completa se hace muy fácil.
Tengo entendido que ahora se esta sincronizando y que mientras no termine no podre minar ningún bloque, por lo tanto entre 1-3 días debería tomar, pero creo ya esta mi nodo operativo, igual preguntare a soporte o si sabes del tema y me puedes ayudar a verificarlo seria excelente =^^=
** Quiero agradecer a :
Y a los muchos usuarios que han ido creando guías de como poder instalar ya sea desde su hogar o desde un servidor dedicado la forma de configurar un nodo testigo en Hive.
Palabras Finales
Mi nodo se llama kozgamer y si todo esta correcto debería estar operativo en unos días horas :b
Esto fue todo lo que experimente al realizar este proyecto, y lo que falta.
Pronto traeré nuevas actualizaciones y espero en el futuro muchas mas personas se animen a conocer del tema, y animarse a crear su propio testigo para Hive

the node is called kozgamer although at the moment you can't vote it's still synchronizing :b and I think that's why you can't! I still need to gather more information.

I'll try again later, atm it's still invisible

Suerte con esta iniciativa, entrar en el mundo de linux es un enorme desafio, me haces recordar mis inicios 20 años atras.
Cualquier duda que tengas conversa con alberto0707 en hispapro o conmigo, ambos somos expertos en linux, aunque alberto te puede asesorar mejor en cuanto al nodo en hive porque el es quien lleva el de hispapro.
Y no voy a votar por ti hasta que vea si me gusta el trabajo que haces, papa perro enemigo mortal mio! 😀
bueno es so w :p vale thz lo tendre en cuenta ^^
When I was reading your post I caught myself on thoughts is it good or not if many witness nodes will be located in one place like proved or another one? Can be considered like a kind of centralization or not? But onthe other side we have great possibility for people without coding experience to get their node from the box. 🤔
Another one important thing is that you mentioned problems with wich you faced out when tried to start your node. I hope this can be useful for other people who'll read your post and decide to start their node.
Anyway I wish you goodluck and once appear in the top 20!
well it would be good for the experience, the excitement and to get blocks, since every X time the 19 witnesses receive a transaction and 1 at random can receive from the other witnesses, so the more nodes the more people participating in the network, leaving the centralization far away (I think) hopefully someday top20 =P
