I've been mining Electroneum for a few days, primarily to learn about how Electroneum works. It uses the CryptoNight algorithm, similar to Monero, which means CPU/GPU mining is not impossibly ineffective, as it is with SHA256 algorithms.

Anyway, I'm running a "full" Electroneum node using the Windows x64 binary from their GitHub repo. The node is completely synced with electroneumd.exe running 24x7, and has been since well prior to my mining attempts. I've also configured a new wallet using their electroneum-wallet-cli.exe utility.

The wallet public address is:

You can see the mining progress at EasyHash.io.

Since I've mined over 10 ETN with EasyHash, they made a payment to my wallet yesterday:

Since one of the principal tenets of Electroneum is "fast transaction speeds", I expected my full-node wallet to show a balance quite quickly after the transaction was confirmed. I can see the transaction has been confirmed by looking at blockexplorer.electroneum.com for the transaction details. That block explorer page allows you to provide a wallet id, and the private view key for that wallet, to see if there are any transaction outputs in the transaction that apply to the given wallet. Doing that shows two outputs for my wallet:

Private view key:

e98d706e4a62a83d959c6df570bf65e24ee0308537c97bed451d89ee6dc7aa03

My full-node sees the relevant block:

What am I doing wrong? Surely my wallet should show a balance of 13 ETN ?

FYI, this is also being discussed on the Electroneum subreddit.

Found this question from Reddit, decided to take a look and the Electroneum is showing up for me

So everything seems to be there from my side.

Try recreating the wallet with electroneum-wallet-cli.exe -generate-from-keys using the same address, private spend key, and private view key. Obviously, make sure you backup the original wallet.dat to ensure you have access to the correct keys.

  • I used the macOS version. I also used a public daemon instead of a local one.

  • see... the devil is in the details. This question is about "running a full Electroneum node using the Windows x64 binary from their GitHub repo." - I appreciate your help, and the link to the reddit question.

  • "electroneum-wallet-cli.exe --generate-from-view-key stack" "Balance: 88.12, unlocked balance: 88.12". Exact same result on windows while running a full active node on windows. Maybe try generating a new wallet from keys through the cli?

  • Thanks for checking. I've deleted the entire blockchain from my node and have restarted the node. It's now re-downloading the entire blockchain from other nodes. Once that completes, I will re-create the wallet. Did you start your node with the "raw" blockchain provided in their Github repository, or did it download blocks from other nodes? Also, have a +1

  • I downloaded it from other nodes, it was faster than importing the raw blockchain.
