GUI tool for running Masternode with Trezor

Question regarding multiple MNs on trezor... should I send the next 1000 collateral to /1 on Account #2? - Or should I just go with Account #3 /0 ?

Thanks

For DMT it doesn't matter.

For example, you can use:

44'/5'/0'/0/0 (first MN)
44'/5'/0'/0/1(second MN)
44'/5'/0'/0/x (x MN)

as well as:

44'/5'/0'/0/0 (first MN)
44'/5'/10'/0/0 (second MN)
44'/5'/150'/0/300 (x MN)

In DMT you can even use paths not officially dedicated to Dash, as: 44'/100'/200'/333'/0, but I wouldn't recommend this, because if you forget the path, you lost your funds. Some people may tend to use such solutions to additionally hide the masternode funds in the BIP32 maze, but I think it's unnecessary, until you are 100% sure of what you are doing.

All in all, if you wish to keep your configuration compatible with @chaeplin's dashmnb, you should use the same account for all masternodes' collaterals.

New version (0.9.7) of DashMasternodeTool available with some minor changes:
  • Sending funds from any address controlled by a hardware wallet (https://github.com/Bertrand256/dash-masternode-tool#transferring-of-masternode-earnings). This is a temporary and very basic solution, based on a bip32 path as an input. Future (target) solution will have a full BIP32 tree explorer.
  • Control of not matured coins (<100 confirmations) when performing funds-transfer.
  • Message box with a transaction ID, shown after successful transfer of the funds, now allows to copy a text - this was not possible on windows before. Additionally, TXID is shown as a hyperlink to a Dash block explorer.
  • Fixes of some issues with networking and connection to hardware wallets.
  • Access to the app's log file from the Tools button.
Executables:
Mac: https://github.com/Bertrand256/dash...nload/v0.9.7/DashMasternodeTool_0.9.7.mac.zip
Win64: https://github.com/Bertrand256/dash...oad/v0.9.7/DashMasternodeTool_0.9.7.win64.zip
Win32: https://github.com/Bertrand256/dash...oad/v0.9.7/DashMasternodeTool_0.9.7.win32.zip
Linux: https://github.com/Bertrand256/dash.../v0.9.7/DashMasternodeTool_0.9.7.linux.tar.gz

Major changes are underway.

Really glad you're doing this, though I admit to not using it just yet as well. I also am waiting until it's a bit more comfortable (fewer surprises) to use.

Actually, I took the plunge and it's not so scary or complicated. True, it could be cleaned up a little, but I don't think cosmetics should stop you from securing your crypto.

Good to hear. You are right about the securing of crypto. Perhaps I'll give it a run.

Have you tried it (or heard of it) with more than one MN? Any added configuration complications?

I was going to begin implementation of this in the very near future, but the full Ledger Nano support (not only starting masternode but also sending of payments) will require a substantial amount of time, so I must think about how to do this and not let the people concerned wait too long.

Thank you for the job, I really would like to have the masternode starting for now. It sound like a great job you have done for other devices. I gess I will have to buy another equipment.

DashMasternodeTool version 0.9.8 released.

New features: proposals browsing and voting - dedicated to masternode owners (for voting) and proposal owners (for analyzing of voting progress).
Description: https://github.com/Bertrand256/dash-masternode-tool/blob/master/doc/proposals.md

Proposals window:
dmt-proposals.png


For those who want to run the application with different configuration files, this version allows you to specify a path to it using the command line parameter: --config.

Binaries:
https://github.com/Bertrand256/dash...nload/v0.9.8/DashMasternodeTool_0.9.8.mac.zip
https://github.com/Bertrand256/dash...oad/v0.9.8/DashMasternodeTool_0.9.8.win64.zip
https://github.com/Bertrand256/dash...oad/v0.9.8/DashMasternodeTool_0.9.8.win32.zip
https://github.com/Bertrand256/dash.../v0.9.8/DashMasternodeTool_0.9.8.linux.tar.gz

Known issues:
Sometimes loading of proposals may stick at some point (current proposal number at the top of the window will not increment after a few seconds). If it happens, close and reopen the window - it should then download proposals/voting without interruptions.
There is probably an issue with one of the external libraries, so if you report me back I will be able to estimate how often it happens and decide what to do with this.
 
wow, nice update.

  • Loading the proposals keeps getting stuck for me
  • Setting the config file as ~/DMT/path/ didn't work for me, I had to put the complete path
  • Would like to see a dedicated "Proposals" button than having it in the dropdown
In Proposals:
  • don't really like the blue underlined links, would prefer normal system colors without underline
  • dates should be displayed according to local format, and don't see the point of including the seconds
  • the horizontal scrollbar seems to be messed up (inverted color?), plus no horizontal scrolling via shift key
  • can you put voting on the Details panel and leave the Vote panel for those that want more selective voting?
Other than that, very nice and thank you very much!

Maybe I was not too precise, as the value for the --config parameter you must specify the entire path along with the file name, for example:
Code: 
--config=/home/users/username/config1.ini

As for the GUI elements such as hyperlink-underlining or date/time format, my first approach was to use the default behavior of the GUI libs used in the program, but in the future versions, I'm planning to add some configuration options allowing the user to influence some of the graphical aspects of the application.
 
DashMasternodeTool version 0.9.9 released.

Fixed: issue of an occasional hanging while downloading proposal data.
Improved: visibility (font colors) of the selected, non-focused proposals on the proposals grid.

Btw, I know this is not ideal or a long term solution, but maybe you could run a backend server and let people post proposal comments via your tool. You could charge 10c for posting a comment and free if it's signed by a MN. This way, we could do everything locally and easily identify comments from MNOs.

Just saying, I realize you're busy.

Thanks for the suggestion. Definitely worth considering in some form.
 
Hi, is there some kind of tutorial somewhere to set up a MN with this tool?

I did not found instruction on the github page
