    Step 1: Download XCITE wallet
    https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ti1EU-vH-YSPhZHO_y0q26RUkIwVvg88

    Step 2: Create config file

    You can only participate if you're public key has been compiled into the wallet, please check you're public key on the following list before proceeding:
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/124JhZn_gewGKdK_KQT1vdaZKE0uWFTje/view?usp=sharing

    If it is not on the list then please DM Danny1987 or Yankeeruinx for a new set of keys.

    Within appdata/roaming/xcite (if you do not have an xcite folder yet, run the wallet once and close it)
    Create a new xcite.conf file with the following contents:

    posignkey=your_posign_private_key

    screen1.jpg
    Save config and exit.

    Step 3:Check Debug.log
    Now you can start the wallet and in you're roaming folder there will be a file called debug.log, please open this file and search for "importable". Then copy the code.
    PLEASE NOTICE NOT TO COPY THE "init", "added" or "upnp" AT THE END.

    Now you can open the wallet debug console by opening the wallet -> help -> debug windows -> console.

    Now type "importprivkey <copied code>" and press return / enter.

    Step 4: Check if everything works
    Now you're client is setup to mine to can check you're miner ID by searching you're public in the following list:
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/124JhZn_gewGKdK_KQT1vdaZKE0uWFTje/view?usp=sharing

    Once you have found you're ID you can look at the block explorer if you're clients has found any blocks:

    Step 5: Adding address
    As a final step we would like everybody to leave his XCITE address on this sheet so we can test even more with transactions:

    Followed directions up to finding the "importable" key. It doesn't show in the debug log. Maybe because I'm not synced to the network? Having a hard time connecting. Was showing 3 active connections, now back to 0 and still 18 weeks behind.

    Just want to add "Pre" to that list, as my debug.log had the word "Pre-allocating" after my key. I think it would be a good idea to update the log generation so that a space follows the key.

    Hi, double check your xcite.conf file is correct.

    Have you used your Public Key and not your Private Key?

    Is the file actually a .conf file? To make a .conf file I just used Notepad++ and saved the file exactly as "xcite.conf" including the quotation marks to force it to save as a .conf.

    If that doesn't work then let us know.

    My XCite client is up and running now for 14 hours. No problems, processing lots of transactions.

    No importable in debug.log and also the public key is not in the compiled public keys list.

    Not sure but mine is 124 so I have been raking it in :tearsofjoy: It does switch between others at certain time periods, not sure why it is doing what it is doing though. Might be down to the rewards setup is not in place yet where things will be distributed more evenly with other variables in place.

    Ok, I haven't mined a block yet, but I'm receiving lots of transactions, so I guess it's running fine.

    Still cannot connect. Is there a list of nodes I can add to the xcite.conf file to help with connecting?

    I keep getting "connection timeout" in the debug.log
