One command

Linux, node plus RandomX miner, no wallet needed. It compiles from source, applies the floonet configuration below, and refuses to report success unless the node actually comes up with the right block policy.

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/blacktyger/epic-script/main/floonet.sh | sh -s -- --yes

Read it first, or see what it would do without changing anything:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/blacktyger/epic-script/main/floonet.sh | less

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/blacktyger/epic-script/main/floonet.sh | sh -s -- --check

Your rewards are burned — the node mints each coinbase to a throwaway key, so there is nothing to set up and nothing to lose. You are adding hashrate and testing consensus. What it changes and why

Connect by hand

Configure a node yourself

Generate a floonet config, then make these edits. None of them is optional.

epic --floonet server config

# then, in ~/.epic/floo/epic-server.toml
[server]
chain_type = "Floonet"        # a config file overrides --floonet, and defaults to Mainnet
only_randomx = true           # without this you reject every block on this chain

[server.p2p_config]
seeding_type = "List"
seeds = ["147.93.107.186:13414"]   # IP:port only; a hostname panics the node
peer_min_preferred_outbound_count = 1

[server.stratum_mining_config]
enable_stratum_server = true
stratum_server_addr = "127.0.0.1:13416"
burn_reward = true            # mine with no wallet at all

Then epic --floonet server run. Do not pass --port or --api_port; they have a type mismatch in the argument parser and will panic. Set ports in the TOML instead.
