Securely manage your Nextcoins!

Nextcoinbox is developed to help run the Nxt software in a safe and isolated environment, limiting the risk of loosing nextcoins due to malware. Two options are available below: a customised live CD, or a script to run in your favorite linux environment. Current version uses v0.4.7e. Updates will be published soon when the distribution channel of the software will be settled.


Option 1: Custom live CD

The live CD was built on a plain Debian GNU/Linux distribution.

When booted (be it a virtual machine or a computer), the live CD automatically starts the Nextcoin service, and opens a browser to let you access the wallet. Closing the browser halts the virtual machine. This gives a very smooth experience, try it now! (running nxt 0.5.7)

Option 2: Automating script

The second is a script to run in your favorite linux environment, that will download the latest Nxt software, start a local nxt node, and open a browser window to access your wallet.

The only pre-requisite is that Java 7 is available. The only live CD with Java 7 I have found is Sabayon Linux Xfce 14.01 (1.4Gb).

I encourage you to use to script to run Nxt in a virtual machine having booted a live CD.

To run it, simply download this file and run it in a terminal (you need to be in the directory where you saved the file):

bash nextcoinbox-live.sh              
              

or alternatively, you can issue the following command in a terminal window:

wget -qO- https://raw.github.com/nextcoinbox/nextcoinbox/gh-pages/scripts/nextcoinbox-live.sh  | bash
              

Securly manage and forge your Nextcoins

Running in an isolated environment, you limit the risk of malware getting access to your wallet.
