How to set up a cryptocurrency wallet on a Raspberry Pi
Hey All, in this video I set up a cryptocurrency wallet using a Raspberry Pi 3 B+. A lot of people have issues getting the wallet to compile, and there *may* be a step I cover to get it to work. I use Trollcoin wallet as an example in this video.
Steps:
RASPBIAN STRETCH WITH DESKTOP: https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/
Etcher: https://www.balena.io/etcher/?ref=etcher_update
Once Raspbian is set up and running-
Open a terminal
-Type: sudo apt-get update
-Install gparted: sudo apt-get install gparted
-Install gedit: sudo apt-get install gedit
-Set up USB stick as SWAP memory
-In the terminal edit fstab: sudo gedit /etc/fstab
Add this line:
UUID= YOUR USB UUID HERE none swap sw 0 0
-Download the source code for your cryptocurrency wallet.
I used Trollcoin wallet: https://github.com/TrollCoin2/TrollCoin-2.0
-Install dependencies via terminal
***IMPORTANT THIS STEP BELOW WILL HELP COMPILING ISSUES WITH THE RASPBERRY PI 3B+*****
Uninstall libssh-dev (stretch version) and install libssh-dev (Jessie version)
-sudo apt-get remove libssl-dev
-sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
-Change all instances of "stretch" to "jessie"
-sudo apt-get update
-sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
-sudo apt-mark hold libssl-dev
-sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
-Change all instances of "jessie" back to "stretch"
