Stakenet Foundation

On April 8th, 2021 it was announced that Stakenet had established a foundation.

On August 10th, 2021 the first draft of the Foundation statute appeared:

The original link as a Word document:

HSC: Hydra Smart Chain

So that the DEX (from level 2: Prometheus) can later be hosted on the individual MNs, the StakenetChain must be expanded. This happens with the Hydra Smart Chain (a fork of Ethereum). A media article should appear soon.

The Github repo with the first Testnet version has been published:

FAQ - frequently asked Questions

Who is the team behind Stakenet or X9?

The team behind X9 consists of the people listed here: X9-Developers. In addition, there are other (voluntary) people who are involved in the project.

Why is there no maximum amount of coins at XSN?

As with pretty much all POS-Coins (Proof of Stake) there is no maximum amount here either. This is due to the transaction costs that are burned with each transaction. If there were a maximum amount in such a system, it would be at some point the number of coins at 0. Of course, as with everything, there are advantages and disadvantages.

How is the block award divided?

The breakdown is as follows:

• 45% / 9 XSN to Masternode
• 45% / 9 XSN to Stakenode
• 10% / 2 XSN for the treasury

However, the 2 XSN for the treasury are only written to the blockchain once the governance voting has been successfully coordinated.

What is the treasury?

The Treasury is a cryptographically sealed public address that contains funds that have been allocated to it by the network. At Stakenet, 10% of the block rewards go into it. It is used to support Stakenet further developments, new projects and such continue to finance.
There is also a long-term development fund for larger projects, partnerships, competitions, long-term marketing, major developments, etc. The treasury is used to cover all expenses before the long-term development fund is tapped.

What does "Burning" mean?

This means that XSN-Coins will be irrevocably "deleted". This is what happens with transaction costs.
There will be other mechanisms for this later that will permanently remove XSN.
A "burn address" is simply said, a created wallet whose public address is known and the private key has been deleted. Everything that is sent to this address is then considered burned / deleted.
This is one of these addresses: XmPe9BHRsmZeThtYF34YYjdnrjmcAUn8bC

What are the differences between a CoreWallet and a LightWallet?

These are different types of wallets that communicate differently with the blockchain.

CoreWallet: The biggest difference is that the complete blockchain is loaded and locally available in this wallet. This is also called a full node. In addition, all services such as masternode and stakenode are currently only available from this wallet.

LightWallet: As the name suggests, this wallet is slimmed down. It does not have the blockchain available locally and is dependent on other servers / full nodes. This saves storage space but gives up a bit of security. With these savings, Lightwallets also support in Usually several coins. The Stakenet DEX starts with BTC, LTC, XSN, ETH and theoretically all ERC-20 tokens.

Core Wallet

Where is the CoreWallet?

The CoreWallet can be downloaded from the following link: github.com/X9Developers/XSN/releases

This is currently available in version 1.0.28 for Windows (64Bit), Linux (32 / 63Bit) and for MacOS (64Bit).

Which version should you use at least?

Version 1.0.28 is strongly recommended with the important update from May 31st, 2021.

How much storage space does the wallet or blockchain require?

The blockchain needs about 3.3 GB of data on the hard drive.

How long does it take to synchronize with the CoreWallet?

That depends very much on the performance of the computer (CPU, RAM, HDD / SSD and up / down speed). With a powerful computer it is possible to synchronize in less than 2 hours. With the smallest VPS e.g. it can also take 10 hours and more. In these cases you can use a Bootstrap.dat This significantly reduces the time required.
There are various instructions for this:
Medium (Linux): Stakenet (XSN) — Setting up a Masternode at step 6 in the guide
Video instructions (Windows): Stakenet (XSN) Tutorial - How to Apply The Bootstrap .
The latest Bootstrap version is available here: Bootstrap.zip

What are the different addresses?

There are currently 3 types of addresses and these start with the following characters:

X

Legacy adresses.

Example: Xi1BEVHFRYg1QQfrNJF8L9yXvREAADxCLk

7

SegWit adresses.

Example: 7aJz2aDoP9UeZMyzAxVs6qfq5ZTEPCx2Z8

xc1

Native SegWit adresses

Example: xc1qm82zpjy4ysapdrfr3v7fzphc43q9u4sd20t3ud

How do I create receiving addresses?

To do this, you have to switch to the console in the open wallet (Tools tab -> Debug console)
To create SegWit addresses (starting with 7):

Then a new address should be output
For creating legacy addresses (starting with X on):

Then a new address should be output.
You can then view all the received addresses created under File -> Receive addresses.

Why should you encrypt a wallet?

An unencrypted Wallet.dat is primarily an open file. As soon as a third party has the file, he has complete access to all the coins it contains. Therefore, you should encrypt them once with a secure password. And the password of course store carefully.

In this guide: Stakenet Cloud: Setting up a Masternode There is more information at point 2 " Encryption and backup "

Why make a backup?

Since a PC or hard drive can always be damaged, a secured wallet.dat is highly recommended. Of course, this should be copied with a closed wallet (if it is encrypted) and on another drive or save location.

In this guide Stakenet Cloud: Setting up a Masternode There is more information at point 2 " Encryption and backup "

Moving a wallet to another computer

You can simply copy the wallet.dat to another computer and open the wallet with this file. If you are running a Masternode or a TPOSnode, the corresponding .conf file should also be copied.
