How to Find Active $Maria Masternodes using Maria Core Wallet Console

[HelmutsHelmuts is verified member.]

This guide will demonstrate how to retrieve the number of active masternodes on the Maria coin network using the Maria Core wallet console. Since $Maria coin is a fork of Pivx and shares identical features for core wallet functionality, the process is analogous to using the Pivx Core wallet console.

Finding Active Masternodes with

getmasternodecount

1. Launch the Maria Core wallet.

2. Open the debug console.

• Windows/Linux: Go to Help > Debug window (or press Ctrl+D).
• Mac: Go to Debug > Console window.

3. Enter the command and press Enter:

getmasternodecount

4. The console will display the number of active masternodes currently on the Mariacoin network.

Example Output (aslo, see the attached screenshot):

{
  "total": 811,
  "stable": 640,
  "enabled": 691,
  "inqueue": 299,
  "ipv4": 23,
  "ipv6": 788,
  "onion": 0
}

Explanation of the Output:

The command returns two figures: the total number of active masternodes and the number that are currently eligible for rewards (meeting collateral and other requirements).

Additional Notes:

• The Maria Core console offers various other RPC commands related to masternodes. You can find a full list of the Console commands > type

• Ensure you are running the latest version of the Maria Core wallet for optimal performance and security. Currently (01 June 2024) > the up-to-date wallet version is v5.5.1

Disclaimer: Running a masternode requires significant technical knowledge and ongoing maintenance. Ensure you thoroughly understand the risks and rewards involved before setting up a masternode.
