I like dashboards and use it every day (like Google Analytics, the status of my servers at work, etc), so I started with a simple dashboard for Gulden on Linux. However, this was still the same load of text and numbers. That said, I started a small project that gave me some simple output. “I should make a web interface for this, so I don’t have to log in every time” was my thought. Cool! But every time I wanted to check the node, I had to log in to my Pi and type a few commands to eventually see a load of text and numbers on my screen. The board itself costs about 30 Euro, and with a case, SD card, etc it is still a cheap computer fully capable of running a Gulden node. ![]() Hence I started experimenting on a headless Raspberry Pi (a mini-computer without a screen/mouse/keyboard). Leaving a computer running with the wallet software day and night is a waste of energy (and costs) and renting a server for this purpose would be a bit overkill as well. ![]() When the PoW2 whitepaper was released and the witness functionality was described, I started thinking about a way to have a wallet running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and combining it with the option of running a full node to strengthen the network.
