Defi Wallet for Raspberry Pi

The official DeFiChain AppImage release of the Defi Wallet for Linux will not work for the Raspberrys. So I have made for myself a compiled version of the Defi Wallet for my Raspberry Pi 4B 4GB with official Raspberry Pi OS (32-Bit). This so called armv7l version is different to other Linux distributions as well as different to the Raspberry Pi 64-Bit version arm8 respective arm64.

The compiled Raspberry Pi AppImage bases on the DeFiChain original source code. No code was modyfied and was ~100% taken from the DeFiChain repository - ok, the npm workspace file package.json includes now the build for the arm processors😏

DeFi Wallet App

Use DeFi Wallet to interact with DeFiChain. It is a wallet for $DFI, wrapped BTC, ETH, USDT. Liquidity mine, use the DEX, create masternodes, and more. There are actually 3 different ways (i./ii./iii.) to set up a Defi Wallet (Desktop App including DeFi Node), however don't mix up! You have to decide for one of the different ways. Because you are here, I guess you have decided to use my AppImage😉:

• Setup the Raspberry Pi with the offical Raspberry Pi OS. Next you have to install the Defi Wallet on your Raspberry Pi:

  1. Using the AppImage from here (from this page).
  2. Using the Script from DefiNode. Follow the steps as descripted and build your own Defi Wallet.

• Setup the Raspberry Pi with the DeFi-Node-Raspi-Image:

  3. Using the Raspberry Pi Image provided on Google Drive with the RaspberryPI Imager.

Howto Start

• You can download here the desktop app for your Raspberry Pi.
• You can check for official DeFiChain releases for latest downloadable installers for Windows, Mac and Linux, however they have no release for the Raspberry - that's why you are here.

After download the AppImage, save the file where you want (e.g. /home/user/desktop/), mark the file as executable (right-klick the icon, choose preferences) and run the AppImage - that's all...

The Defi Wallet will initiate and guide you. Further information is available at the DeFiChain-Wiki.

Howto Continue

Buy Hardware

On DefiNode you find a shopping list for the hardware of a Raspberry Pi node as well as a 3D case with DeFiChain logo. A good installation guide of the setup of a Raspberry Pi you can find there as well.

Run your own Masternode

Just to remember, the Defi Wallet includes a running fullnode so called "Defi Node". On top you can setup the fullnode as a masternode. The DefiChain-Wiki tells you the steps to setup a masternode and the guys from mydeficha.in will serves you with operating your own masternode.
