Update documentation to reflect actual BIP9 deployment parameters: - Activation threshold: 540/720 blocks (75%) vs incorrectly documented 90% - Confirmation window: 720 blocks (Palladium custom) vs Bitcoin's 2016 - Add explanatory notes about Palladium's lower threshold for faster coordination
Palladium Core
Setup
Palladium Core is the original Palladium client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Palladium transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.
To download Palladium Core, visit palladiumcore.org.
Running
The following are some helpful notes on how to run Palladium Core on your native platform.
Unix
Unpack the files into a directory and run:
bin/palladium-qt(GUI) orbin/palladiumd(headless)
Windows
Unpack the files into a directory, and then run palladium-qt.exe.
macOS
Drag Palladium Core to your applications folder, and then run Palladium Core.
