Hi guys 
We are going to learn to create masternode for Social Send coin.
Social Send coin was created from Piex coin ( formerly pie coin) after the developers decided to abandon the chain due to an unscruplous exchange which led to loss of their coins.

It is the first coin which has social sending intergrated in it implies you can send money through facebook and twitter - now how cool is that !

You need exactly 6250 coins from cryptopia.co.nz to build a master node . 

Masternode returns are good approx 200 % a year.

We will use vultr.com to create a masternode

Register yourself at vultr using the link below :-

Wait for server to get deployed. Once done open putty .

Once done hit Open

How putty works is you need to use RIGHT CLICK to PASTE. 
so copy password from vultr and right click

Now for rest of the linux script follow the instructions below just keep copying and pasting ( by using right click)

sudo ufw allow OpenSSH
sudo ufw allow 51474
sudo ufw default deny incoming
sudo ufw default allow outgoing
sudo ufw enable 

The swap drivemakes space on your hard drive that the server can use as simulated extra RAM. By the way,
the free command shows you how much free memory you have.Run these commands to make a swapfile:

sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap.img bs=1024k count=1000
sudo mkswap /var/swap.img
sudo swapon /var/swap.img

sudo chmod 0600 /var/swap.img
sudo chown root:root /var/swap.img
sudo nano /etc/fstab

Append the following line to the end of the file:

/var/swap.img none swap sw 0 0

Press ctrl+X . It will prompt you to save the file with a Y/N . Hit Y

Start the server 
./sendd -daemon
It would say server successfully started

Next step is to create a new address for masternode

Create wallet-address
 ./send-cli getaccountaddress MN

You will get an address , use ctrl+c to copy the address and send exactly 6250 coins to this address from your cryptopia account

Create priv-key for masternode (genkey)
./send-cli masternode genkey
Note this on your notepad

Create masternode transaction (TXID)
./send-cli masternode outputs
Note this on your notepad

Stop the send server
./send-cli stop

Open the wallet configuration file with the below command
nano ~/.send/send.conf

Now copy paste the format below -

#input
staking=1
rpcuser=UserName  (retain what you put earlier
rpcpassword=Password( retain what you put earlier)
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256
masternode=1
externalip= VPS-IPaddr (from vultr):53472
bind=127.0.0.1
masternodeprivkey=MasternodePrivkey ( which you got earlier and saved in ur notepad)
masternodeaddr=127.0.0.1:53472
#end

Hit ctrl +X and press Y when done

Open the masternode configuration file
nano ~/.send/masternode.conf

mn1 127.0.0.1:53472  (genkey) (txid)  (0 or 1)

The 0 or 1 is what you get at the end of the TXID
Hit Ctrl+X and press Y when done

Now restart the server
./sendd -daemon

check the status of your masternode 
./send-cli masternode status

If it shows "1" all good !

You can always check your balance using

./send-cli getbalance

after 2-3 days , if it has increased you are doing good with the masternode
