[Music] what's going on everyone welcome Rabid here and iron fish is officially on mainnet so
what's that mean we gotta update our nodes again so I did show you how to do it previously when
testnet did get an upgrade so we're just going to do the same type of process here it's a little bit
different to get on the main net but let's see if we can figure this out so the first thing you
are going to need is to open up Powershell now instead of running a whole bunch of Powershell
windows I like to run ISE as administrator that way we can run tabs instead of a whole bunch of
Powershell windows so we're going to want to export our wallet that is like writing down
your seed phrase if something happens to your PC or you mess something up during the transition
here to mainnet you always have your private keys and you can simply import your wallet
again keep the same addresses coins and so on test net coins don't matter because their test
net that is all gone now we're on mainnet now so you're going to want to go into iron fish here
wallet semicolon export and this should show your private keys once it's done doing its thinking
process of course there's the private Keys it is blurred out for security purposes obviously
but now you have your keys you save this put in a notepad put it on a USB drive whatever this is the
backup for your wallet so now we're going to want to install the latest version of iron fish and
that's a simple process here if you saw my last video you kind of know what we're doing here but
we're going to run npm install slash or I guess Dash here G iron fish it is the same command to
either install it initially for the first time or to update it it'll download and update the latest
version of iron fish now you can also add an ad here and download specific versions by itself
but right now there's only one version for mainnet and that's the one we want to run so this command
here is what we need so I entered in the command and now it's going to do its thing I hit enter we
just got to wait for it to do its thinking process it's not the fastest thing in the world but hey
you know it does what it's supposed to do so we're just going to let it sit for a little while while
it does download and install everything it needs to do okay then once it's done it should say it
changed 571 packages in 46 seconds it's done all that stuff so now when upgrading like on the test
net we did have to run the reset command and so on because they were changing the chain a little
bit I think we can skip that here and just say go to mainnet so we're going to try iron fish mainnet
hit enter and hopefully this swaps it over from the test net into the main net so here
it's saying you're about to migrate your iron fist data to mainnet your
wallet accounts and node configuration will be saved this data directory will be migrated so
it sounds like it's swapping everything over now we're going to wait and see what happens
so it's been sitting here for a while and hasn't really done anything so maybe you
can't do this in ISE so I'm just going to try a simple Powershell and see if that works I'm
just going to go into Powershell here and put in the same command iron fish mainnet
and see if it does it from here because I'm not sure what's going on with the ISE version
there it goes so here it's actually asking me to do it yes or no so yes we definitely
want to hit yes in this case yes we want to do it so now it's migrating our data so it
looks like ISE will not do this for you that might have been why I had issues when I did
the initial upgrade in the last video but now but migrated successfully so we should
be able to go back to ISE now and actually run it so I'm going to go back into here go
file we're going to run a new Powershell Tab and I'm going to do iron fish start
now this should start our node and hopefully it's on Main net so we'll see what happens it's either
going to tell us so yeah one main so we are on mainnet now no longer on test net normally this
would say one dot test and a whole bunch of stuff so right on we are now connected to the main net
of iron fish so while it does its thing I do want to open up a couple more tabs one and two more
tabs here this is why it's so much easier to run ISC for this type of stuff but it looks like the
installation processes does need to do it do it within just Powershell itself so we're going to
come into here now I want to check my wallet address just to make sure it's the same one
[Music]
so I put an iron fish wallet semicolon address and it should tell me my public
address and yes it is the exact same address so we didn't lose anything here but in case
we did we did export our private Keys earlier in case we have to import them back for the
other tab here I just want to keep track of the status so I'm going to go iron fish
status and this will tell us our version number uh the percentage in sync we are to
the blockchain and so on so it should be pretty oh look it's already synced up very very fast
because mainnet just started so there's not that many blocks to have the download but if
you are watching this like a year or two down the road and depending what iron fish is doing at the
time it's probably going to take a lot longer to download the entire blockchain because it's
been maturing for so long now I want to see if I actually have any type of balance in this case
so now I went to iron fish wallet semicolon ballots we'll see if we have any iron fish
tokens hanging out in their wallet so our balance is currently zero now on the test net just before
main net release I did have 35 I have the same address so I can assume everything is working
out until a pool does pay us out all right guys so it was a fairly simple process to update our
node we didn't have to do a bunch of steps that we did in our last video with deleting the chain
folder hitting the reset command and stuff like that so it was nice and fast I'm going to wait a
little bit until I get a pool payout here so I can confirm that the node is working and it's
reading my wallet and everything correctly and if you are looking to mine to your own
note I do have a previous video on setting up pool mode for your node and just to confirm
payout and received it within my CLI wallet 0.4 iron fish so Lambos here we go I'm just
kidding guys anyway guys the note is working as intended maybe I'll try some solo mining
maybe not we'll see what happens and if I'm feeling lucky but thank you for checking out
this video hopefully it helped you out I'll see you on the next one Rabid Out [Music] foreign
