PLSR
This information is taken from various sources but is not the official source for all info. Any additions are very very welcome and will be evaluated!
Wallet and node
The wallet is the node, there are no separate master/smart nodes in Pulsar Coin
PoS and PoW
PoS (Proof-of-Stake) is staking reward and PoW (Proof-of-Work) is mining reward
- Check out the pulsarcoin.org website and the Whitepaper
- Use the block explorer to see transactions
- Current price can be found on e.g. coinpaprika.com
- A beta version of a calculator can be found on rabidmining.com
Install the wallet from GitHub. Define where your wallet will be stored and make regular backups!
- For security reasons, encrypt your wallet immediately (Settings > Encrypt) and backup your wallet.dat and your passphrase
- Default path for windows is the Pulsar folder in %APPDATA% (\AppData\Roaming)
- For security reasons, encrypt your wallet immediately and backup your wallet.dat and your passphrase
- Default path for the Pulsar folder is probably /users/macbook/Library/Application Support/Pulsar
- Download:
wget https://github.com/PulsarCoin/Pulsar-Coin-Cryptocurrency/releases/download/v1.1.1/pulsar-1.1.1-linux_gnu64.tar.gz
- Extract:
tar xvf pulsar-1.1.1-linux_gnu64.tar.gz
- Run in background:
./pulsard --server --daemon --banscore=10000
- (Recommended) Encrypt your wallet with passphrase:
./pulsar-cli encryptwallet "YOUR PASSPHRASE HERE"
(run previous command again as daemon is stopped) - Unlock your wallet:
./pulsar-cli walletpassphrase "YOUR PASSPHRASE HERE" 960000 true
(true
unlocks for staking,false
unlocks for transactions also)
- Run
"c:\program files\pulsar\pulsar-qt.exe" -banscore=10000
to prevent your wallet being out of stake by loosing active connections or addbanscore=10000
in your pulsar config file
When upgrading always perform a backup before starting the upgrade
The minimum is 1 PLSR
The PoS reward is 90 PLSR
- For the moment only Beehive wallet seems to offer staking rewards
For qt-based wallets:
- Make sure you have the latest version from GitHub
- In your pulsar.conf file make sure to have Staking=1
- Encrypt your wallet
- Unlock your wallet (Check the connections. If you see at least 1, you are unlocked)
- Remain online 24h/24h
Based on input from fellow miners, consider this:
- You never know, luck is what it mainly takes. A PoS reward is a probability.
- More money in your wallet can lead to faster rewards
1 is enough! Some people have a theory that the number of connections might slightly improve your chances, however latency is more important to check (you might get an orphan block with bad latency as someone else would submit faster)
There is a kind of random selection of a wallet to validate the next block and that address will get the reward
An orphan block is a block that is not confirmed and so not added to the blockchain, usually because another valid block was found and added just slightly before it. There is no reward for orphan blocks.
- On windows you can find the debug.log file in the folder where you saved your wallet. Default is %APPDATA% , so \appdata\Roaming\Pulsar\debug.log
- On Linux the default is ~/.pulsar folder (so in your home folder)
- run
./pulsar-cli -h
for basic commands help and./pulsar-cli help
for Pulsar specific commands (same for the daemon ./pulsard)
- View default wallet address:
./pulsar-cli getaccountaddress ""
- Create new receiving address:
./pulsar-cli getnewaddress "LABEL"
- View wallet status:
./pulsar-cli getwalletinfo
Consider adding banscore, peertimeout and some nodes to your config file
banscore=10000 peertimeout=10000 # MAIN STATIC NODES https://explorer.pulsarcoin.org/network addnode=45.63.65.34:5995 addnode=137.220.60.11:5995 addnode=149.28.244.210:5995 addnode=103.249.70.51:5995 # OTHER NODES addnode=14.18.32.195:5995 addnode=39.164.244.3:5995 addnode=49.232.212.225:5995 addnode=62.122.201.178:5995 addnode=71.86.208.108:5995 addnode=72.206.127.43:5995 addnode=82.156.69.199:5995 addnode=95.129.58.28:5995 addnode=109.167.134.30:5995 addnode=120.88.87.45:5995 addnode=122.148.134.55:5995 addnode=152.136.184.128:5995 addnode=162.239.111.198:5995 addnode=176.215.69.198:5995 addnode=192.3.152.135:5995 addnode=192.46.215.125:5995
Tuning your miner is very important. E.g. Using all threads except one or two will let the Operating system perform it's tasks or leave room for your GPU mining software to do its job. In the following examples, we will leave 1 thread free, use rplant (SSL) as main and coolminerz (no-SSL) as backup server, but please choose your own favorite servers. Copy this to multiple rigs/machines and just change the WORKERNAME
#!/bin/sh WORKERNAME=example THREADS=$(nproc --all) THREADS=$((THREADS-1)) while [ 1 ]; do sudo ./SRBMiner-MULTI --disable-gpu --algorithm curvehash --pool stratum+tcps://stratum-eu.rplant.xyz:17030!stratum+tcp://coolminerz.hopto.org:3650 --wallet PVVkqGsFTu4mNRYor4YMrTXTanuDicixMM."${WORKERNAME}" --password x!c=PLSR --cpu-threads "${THREADS}" done
Will be added in the next days
The results in this table is a mix of hashrates provided by real miners and from stock. Numbers may vary depending on operating system, RAM and overclock settings. These estimated hashrates are a snapshot taken at a moment in time. Numbers vary daily so use this table as a guide only.
Note: If you think of tuning your processor, there is no good over or under clocking or volting settings in the long run, temp 70-72c is pretty good and always check power efficiency as overclocking or increase voltage will consume more.

- When mining both GPU and CPU and you use SRBminer for CPU mining, always reduce 1 or 2 threads.
- Current block height / 10, rounded up = number of coins for 1 entry. Is this for PoS reward???
- Think about the likelihood you win a block as a 720 blocks per day * / = Estimated Amount of PoS blocks won per day
- With about 4500 PLSR in your wallet, you have a good chance of expecting 1 PoS award (90 PLSR) per day, with 9k you could expect 2 per day
- Wallet/daemon should be run with -banscore=10000, also repeatedly unban nodes.
