Let's proceed. ### Configure RPC ports Stop your core wallet by going to the `/shaicoin` folder and run the following command: ``` cd cd shaicoin ./shaicoin-cli stop ```

You can check your node to confirm it has already stopped.

Next, create a `shai.conf` file on your `.shaicoin` directory. Here are the steps: ``` cd cd .shaicoin touch shai.conf ```

Open the `shai.conf` file... ``` nano shai.conf ``` Copy and paste the following. Then save it. CTRL X, Y then Enter ``` # Enable RPC server server=1 # Set the username and password for RPC rpcuser=user rpcpassword=password # Optional: Bind to your IP address (leave localhost for local connections) rpcbind=127.0.0.1 # RPC listening port rpcport=8710 # Allow only connections from localhost rpcallowip=127.0.0.1 # Maximum number of connections maxconnections=16 # Enable logging (optional) logtimestamps=1 ```

Start your node and let it sync again to the network. ``` cd cd shaicon cd src ./shaicoind ```

### Install Solo Pool repo Install **Node.js 23.x**: Before you begin, ensure that `curl` is installed on your system. If `curl` is not installed, you can install it using the following command: ``` sudo apt-get install -y curl ``` 1. **Download the setup script:** ``` curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_23.x -o nodesource_setup.sh ``` 2. **Run the setup script with sudo:** ``` sudo -E bash nodesource_setup.sh ``` 3. **Install Node.js:** ``` sudo apt-get install -y nodejs ``` 4. **Verify the installation:** ``` node -v ```

Copy the Shaicoin Solo Backend repo. ``` cd git clone https://github.com/shaicoin/shaipot-solo-backend.git cd shaipot-solo-backend ```

Install Dependencies ``` npm install ```

Build Native Addon ``` npm run build ```

### Configure Solo pool Open `config.json` file. ``` nano config.json ``` and change the information based on your node settings. Then save it. ``` { "rpc_url": "http://your_rpc_server:port", "rpc_username": "user", "rpc_password": "password", "pool_shaicoin_address": "your_pool_address" } ``` Here is an example:

### Run Solo pool Run your solo pool with this command: ``` node server.js ```

### Connect miners Using the same command for connecting to a mining pool, make sure you set the correct IP:port for the --pool settings. ``` ./target/release/shaipot --address sh1xxxxxxxxxxxxxj --pool ws://161.97.130.233:3333 ```

Your mining pool will also indicate once a miner is connected to it. Congratulations you have successfully setup your own solo mining pool.

Note:\ You can also use the same approach for creating a public mining pool.\ See instructions here:\
