AXE

about

AXE is a decentralized X11-based cryptocurrency. The foundation of AXE network is hybrid PoW/PoSe system. First-tier nodes provide hash power to move data and secure the blockchain, while the second tier of full nodes adds extra privacy and increases network performance.

AXE core clients are full nodes, upgradeable to Masternodes and the most secure way to access the network. Full node client downloads a complete copy of the blockchain and participating in transactions verification. Thin (mobile) clients are using SPV protocol to communicate with full nodes and perform operations without downloading a full copy of the blockchain.

Gitian builds

Use AXE-gitian to perform deterministic binary builds using Vagrant and VirtualBox with Ansible. This section covers build process on macOS (linux instructions). Gitian provides a way to be reasonably certain that the AXE executables are really built from the exact source on GitHub and have not been tampered with. It also makes sure that the same, tested dependencies are used and statically built into the executable. Multiple developers build from source code by following a specific descriptor ("recipe"), cryptographically sign the result, and upload the resulting signature. These results are compared and only if they match is the build is accepted.

GnuPG

Download and install the latest version of GPG Suite from here.

Vagrant

Ansible

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
brew doctor
brew install git
sudo easy_install pip

sudo pip install ansible

git clone https://github.com/AXErunners/axe-gitian
cd axe-gitian

# URL of repository containing AXE source code.
axe_git_repo_url: 'https://github.com/AXErunners/axe'

# Specific tag or branch you want to build.

Place Apple SDK tarball (MacOSX10.11.sdk.tar.gz) into axe-gitian folder for macOS builds.

Start the build with vagrant up --provision axe-build.

Then connect to the box with vagrant ssh axe-build.

#replace $SIGNER and $VERSION to match your gitian.yml
./gitian-build.py --setup $signer $version
./gitian-build.py -B $SIGNER $VERSION

Commit assertions from the box using git (access token might be needed) or use vagrant scp plugin to transfer data.

AXE Core v1.2 DIP3 Upgrade

Setup VPS

adduser axerunner
usermod -aG sudo axerunner
su axerunner
cd ~

Prepare the system

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install ufw git fail2ban python virtualenv unzip pv
sudo ufw allow ssh/tcp
sudo ufw limit ssh/tcp
sudo ufw allow 9937/tcp
sudo ufw allow 9936/tcp
sudo ufw allow 9337/tcp
sudo ufw logging on
sudo ufw disable
sudo ufw enable
Add some swap:
sudo fallocate -l 4G /swapfile
sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile
sudo nano /etc/fstab

Install AXE on VPS

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/axerunners/axerunner
~/axerunner/axerunner install
~/axerunner/axerunner install sentinel

Generate masternode bls key on local machine

bls generate

{
  "secret": "28a85abb5aa8e820f65e33974cef0ab0bf06195f61454d2feb7fa578612d2228",
  "public": "144cbf4d472716b9504a54c7ca26906a3346253b787ffeb1a4999325049f5b2c51ef2e7c215d85f0a9142ec1c78db99b"
}

Go back to VPS to edit the configuration file

cd ~ && cd .axecore
nano axe.conf

#- - - -
rpcuser=XXX
rpcpassword=XXX
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=9337
#- - - -

server=1
daemon=1
#- - - -
masternode=1
masternodeprivkey=
externalip=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
masternodeblsprivkey=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
#- - - -

Press enter to make sure there is a blank line at the end of the file, then press Ctrl + X to close the editor and Y and Enter save the file. We now need to restart the masternode for this change to take effect. Enter the following commands, waiting a few seconds in between to give Axe Core time to shut down:

~/.axecore/axe-cli stop
~/.axecore/axed

Prepare a ProRegTx transaction

we need to get a new, unused address from the wallet to serve as the owner address. This is different to the collateral address

getnewaddress

PMwR1zf2Cv9gcMdHULRVbTTMGw7arvpbM5

Then either generate or choose an existing second address to receive the owner’s masternode payouts:

getnewaddress

PLqyR8PHEB7Fp1ue8nSuLfuxQhrj5PSTDv

You can also optionally generate and fund a third address to pay the transaction fee. The private keys to the owner and fee source addresses must exist in the wallet submitting the transaction to the network. If your wallet is protect by a password, it must now be unlocked to perform the following commands. Unlock your wallet for 5 minutes:

walletpassphrase yourSecretPassword 300

We will now prepare an unsigned ProRegTx special transaction using the protx register_prepare command. This command has the following syntax:

 protx register_prepare collateralHash collateralIndex ipAndPort ownerKeyAddr
  operatorPubKey votingKeyAddr operatorReward payoutAddress (feeSourceAddress)

Open a text editor such as notepad to prepare this command. Replace each argument to the command as follows:

Example (remove line breaks if copying):

protx register_prepare

}

Next we will use the collateralAddress and signMessage fields to sign the transaction, and the output of the tx field to submit the transaction.

Sign the ProRegTx transaction

We will now sign the content of the signMessage field using the private key for the collateral address as specified in collateralAddress.

signmessage address message

Example:

signmessage PiFfzbwiN9oneftd7cEfr3kQLRwQ4kp7ue PLqyR8PHEB7Fp1ue8nSuLfuxQhrj5PSTDv|0|PMwR1zf2Cv9gcMdHULRVbTTMGw7arvpbM5|PMwR1zf2Cv9gcMdHULRVbTTMGw7arvpbM5|4e00de34ee03d28adb4e1fdaec966ae239c11da7e6115f566fc4b3f75c8a5503

Submit the signed message

We will now submit the ProRegTx special transaction to the blockchain to register the masternode. This command must be sent from a Axe Core wallet holding a balance, since a standard transaction fee is involved. The command takes the following syntax:

protx register_submit tx sig

Where:

Example:

protx register_submit 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 H3ub9BATtvuV+zDGdkUQNoUGpaYFr/O1FypmrSmH5WJ0KFRi8T10FSew0EJO/+Ij+OLv4r0rt+HS9pQFsZgc2dE=

Your masternode is now registered and will appear on the Deterministic Masternode List after the transaction is mined to a block. You can view this list on the Masternodes -> Masternodes tab of the Axe Core wallet, or in the console using the command protx list valid, where the txid of the final protx register_submit transaction identifies your DIP003 masternode.

At this point you can go back to your terminal window and monitor your masternode using axerunner/axerunner status, by entering ~/.axecore/axe-cli masternode status

At this point you can safely log out of your server by typing exit. Congratulations! Your masternode is now running.
