Basics

This section will guide you through the process of:

• Downloading and installing the binaries
• Running the node
• Running your first wallet
  • Making the basic wallet operations
• Mining

There are three different cases that you can run the Epic Cash blockchain:

• If you want to just have a copy of the chain or help the propagation of the blocks in the network, all you need is to run the server.

• If you want to make transactions such as payments or receive payments, you need to run the epic server and the epic wallet.

• If you want to produce new blocks and with that gain rewards (both new coins and transaction fees), you will need to run the epic server with an epic wallet listening to it and an epic miner.
