# Cryptographic Triangles (TRI) - v5.1.5
|
|
|
|
Triangles is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency featuring Proof-of-Stake consensus, Tor v3 onion routing, and built-in encrypted messaging. Originally launched in July 2014, the chain was revived in March 2026 after being frozen since December 2022.
|
|
|
|
## Key Features
|
|
|
|
- **Proof-of-Stake** - Energy-efficient block production with 33% annual staking rewards (coin-age based)
|
|
- **Hash9 Algorithm** - Unique 13-step hash cascade (Fugue, Hamsi, Groestl, Blake, BMW, Skein, Keccak, Shavite, JH, Luffa, Cubehash, Echo, SIMD)
|
|
- **Encrypted Messaging** - Send and receive encrypted messages directly through the wallet
|
|
- **Tor v3 Integration** - Connect and transact over the Tor network with v3 onion hidden services
|
|
- **120-second Block Time** - Fast confirmations with 2-minute target spacing
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Building from Source
|
|
|
|
### Linux (Ubuntu 24.04 / Debian 12+)
|
|
|
|
Install dependencies:
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential libboost-all-dev libssl-dev \
|
|
libdb5.3++-dev libevent-dev zlib1g-dev libminiupnpc-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build the daemon:
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd src/leveldb && make libleveldb.a libmemenv.a && cd ..
|
|
make -j$(nproc) -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=0
|
|
strip trianglesd
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Linux (AlmaLinux 9 / RHEL 9)
|
|
|
|
Install dependencies:
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo dnf install -y gcc-c++ make boost-devel openssl-devel libevent-devel \
|
|
zlib-devel miniupnpc-devel
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
BDB 5.3 C++ bindings must be built from source on RHEL-based systems (the `libdb-devel` package does not include C++ headers). Download BDB 5.3.28 from Oracle and build with `--enable-cxx`.
|
|
|
|
Then build as above.
|
|
|
|
### Windows (MSYS2 MinGW64)
|
|
|
|
Open an MSYS2 MinGW64 shell and install:
|
|
```bash
|
|
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-boost mingw-w64-x86_64-openssl \
|
|
mingw-w64-x86_64-db mingw-w64-x86_64-miniupnpc \
|
|
mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5-base mingw-w64-x86_64-qrencode
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build the Qt wallet:
|
|
```bash
|
|
qmake triangles-qt.pro
|
|
make -j$(nproc)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Running
|
|
|
|
### First Run
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkdir -p ~/.triangles
|
|
cat > ~/.triangles/triangles.conf << 'EOF'
|
|
port=24112
|
|
rpcport=19112
|
|
rpcuser=trianglesrpc
|
|
rpcpassword=<generate-a-strong-password>
|
|
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
|
|
staking=1
|
|
txindex=1
|
|
listen=1
|
|
server=1
|
|
daemon=1
|
|
addnode=194.233.88.206
|
|
addnode=74.208.167.19
|
|
externalip=<your-public-ip>
|
|
EOF
|
|
|
|
trianglesd
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The node will connect to seed nodes and sync the blockchain automatically.
|
|
|
|
### Existing Wallet Holders
|
|
|
|
If you have a `wallet.dat` from the original Triangles network:
|
|
|
|
1. Place your `wallet.dat` in `~/.triangles/` (Linux) or `%APPDATA%\triangles\` (Windows)
|
|
2. Start the wallet - it will sync the blockchain and your balance will appear automatically
|
|
3. No migration or special action is needed - all keys and balances are preserved
|
|
|
|
### Staking
|
|
|
|
To stake, your wallet must be:
|
|
- Running with `staking=1` in the config
|
|
- Connected to at least one peer
|
|
- Containing coins with sufficient coin-age (mature inputs)
|
|
|
|
Check staking status:
|
|
```bash
|
|
trianglesd getstakinginfo
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Encrypted Messaging
|
|
|
|
Send and receive encrypted messages between wallet addresses:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Enable messaging
|
|
trianglesd smsgenable
|
|
|
|
# Send a message
|
|
trianglesd smsgsend <your-address> <recipient-address> "Hello from Triangles!"
|
|
|
|
# Check inbox
|
|
trianglesd smsginbox all
|
|
|
|
# Send anonymous message
|
|
trianglesd smsgsendanon <recipient-address> "Anonymous message"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Messages are encrypted end-to-end using AES and distributed through the peer network in time-bucketed batches.
|
|
|
|
### Tor Support
|
|
|
|
To connect through Tor, install the Tor daemon and add to your config:
|
|
```
|
|
# triangles.conf
|
|
proxy=127.0.0.1:9050
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To run your own hidden service, add to `/etc/tor/torrc`:
|
|
```
|
|
HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/triangles/
|
|
HiddenServiceVersion 3
|
|
HiddenServicePort 24112 127.0.0.1:24112
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then set `externalip=<your-onion-address>` in `triangles.conf`.
|
|
|
|
