Setup
|
|
---------------------
|
|
[Dogecoin Core](http://dogecoin.com/en/download) is the original Dogecoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. However, it downloads and stores the entire history of Dogecoin transactions (which is currently several GBs); depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more. Thankfully you only have to do this once.
|
|
|
|
Running
|
|
---------------------
|
|
The following are some helpful notes on how to run Dogecoin on your native platform.
|
|
|
|
### Unix
|
|
|
|
You need the Qt4 run-time libraries to run Dogecoin-Qt. On Debian or Ubuntu:
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install libqtgui4
|
|
|
|
Unpack the files into a directory and run:
|
|
|
|
- bin/32/dogecoin-qt (GUI, 32-bit) or bin/32/dogecoind (headless, 32-bit)
|
|
- bin/64/dogecoin-qt (GUI, 64-bit) or bin/64/dogecoind (headless, 64-bit)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Windows
|
|
|
|
Unpack the files into a directory, and then run dogecoin-qt.exe.
|
|
|
|
### OSX
|
|
|
|
Drag Dogecoin-Qt to your applications folder, and then run Dogecoin-Qt.
|
|
|
