Mecoin Wallet
This is the graphical user interface for Mecoin, the best cryptocurrency ever.
Building
There are currently no pre-built binaries available for Mecoin Wallet. To build it on Ubuntu Linux, let's first install all dependencies:
sudo apt install git build-essential cmake libboost-all-dev qt5-default
The next step is to download the source code for Mecoin Wallet and Mecoin itself:
git clone https://github.com/2pay/mecoinwallet.git
cd mecoinwallet
git submodule init
git submodule update
We are now ready to build the wallet:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
When the build is finished, the only thing left to do is installing it to /usr/bin so you can easily run it from the terminal:
sudo install mecoin /usr/bin/
Running
Running Mecoin Wallet is as simple as it gets - just run it from your terminal:
mecoin
It will use the ".mecoin" subdirectory of your user directory to store its data, including a full copy of the blockchain. If you want to change any of its settings, you can pass them as command line arguments. To find all available arguments, execute:
mecoin --help
