Geth Ethereum

This is a step-by-step guide for adding Geth as a Hot Wallet Buy source.

The following example is based on the presumption that the Geth Ethereum node has been installed, configured, and tested for proper use.

This guide is intended to help you attach a working Geth Ethereum node to a functional CAS.

1. Assemble the required information for CAS:

Parameters are host : port : username : password : cert_fingerprint : wallet_address : gas_limit

Parameter	Description	Examples

Parameter	Description	Examples
host	IP of the Geth Ethereum node. see notes below.	127.0.0.1
port	RPC port of the Geth Ethereum node normally 8545	8545
username	deprecated - no longer required or used.
password	deprecated - no longer required or used.
cert_fingerprint	deprecated - no longer required or used.
wallet_address	this is the wallet implemented & unlocked on the node. do not include quotes (unlike the console syntax).	0x18f54a37626138b78c0ce05ca90e02cd45332cab
gas_limit optional	Sets the maximum gas amount (gwei) that can be spent on a single transaction.	65

In this example, using the above, our "Parameters" looks like this (all one line):

127.0.0.1:8545::::0x18f54a37626138b78c0ce05ca90e02cd45332cab
