Introduction

SuperiorCoin is a private, secure, untraceable, decentralised digital currency. You are your bank, you control your funds, and nobody can trace your transfers unless you allow them to do so.

Privacy: Superior uses a cryptographically sound system to allow you to send and receive funds without your transactions being easily revealed on the blockchain (the ledger of transactions that everyone has). This ensures that your purchases, receipts, and all transfers remain absolutely private by default.

Security: Using the power of a distributed peer-to-peer consensus network, every transaction on the network is cryptographically secured. Individual wallets have a 25 word mnemonic seed that is only displayed once, and can be written down to backup the wallet. Wallet files are encrypted with a passphrase to ensure they are useless if stolen.

Untraceability: By taking advantage of ring signatures, a special property of a certain type of cryptography, Superior is able to ensure that transactions are not only untraceable, but have an optional measure of ambiguity that ensures that transactions cannot easily be tied back to an individual user or computer.

About this Project

This is the GUI for the core Superior implementation. It is open source and completely free to use without restrictions, except for those specified in the license agreement below. There are no restrictions on anyone creating an alternative implementation of Superior that uses the protocol and network in a compatible manner.

As with many development projects, the repository on Github is considered to be the "staging" area for the latest changes. Before changes are merged into that branch on the main repository, they are tested by individual developers in their own branches, submitted as a pull request, and then subsequently tested by contributors who focus on testing and code reviews. That having been said, the repository should be carefully considered before using it in a production environment, unless there is a patch in the repository for a particular show-stopping issue you are experiencing. It is generally a better idea to use a tagged release for stability.

Installing Superior Core from a Package

There are a few pakages availble on the website SuperiorCoin

Packaging for your favorite distribution would be a welcome contribution!

Compiling Superior Core from Source

On Linux:

(Tested on Ubuntu 16.04 x86, 16.10 x64 and Linux Mint 18 "Sarah" - Cinnamon x64)

Install Superior dependencies.

sudo apt install build-essential cmake libboost-all-dev miniupnpc libunbound-dev graphviz doxygen libunwind8-dev pkg-config libssl-dev
Grab an up-to-date copy of the Superior-core repository.

git clone https://github.com/TheSuperiorCoin/GUIwallet.git
Go into the repository.

cd Superior-core
Use the script to compile the Superior libs necessary to run the GUI.

./get_libwallet_api.sh
Install the GUI dependencies.

For Ubuntu 16.04 x86

sudo apt-get install qtbase5-dev qt5-default qtdeclarative5-dev qml-module-qtquick-controls qml-module-qtquick-xmllistmodel qttools5-dev-tools qml-module-qtquick-dialogs
For Ubuntu 16.04+ x64

sudo apt-get install qtbase5-dev qt5-default qtdeclarative5-dev qml-module-qtquick-controls qml-module-qtquick-xmllistmodel qttools5-dev-tools qml-module-qtquick-dialogs qml-module-qt-labs-settings libqt5qml-graphicaleffects
For Linux Mint 18 "Sarah" - Cinnamon x64

sudo apt install qml-module-qt-labs-settings qml-module-qtgraphicaleffects
Optional : To build the flag WITH_SCANNER

sudo apt install qtmultimedia5-dev qml-module-qtmultimedia libzbar-dev

Build the GUI.

./build.sh
Run the GUI client.

./build/release/bin/Superior-wallet-gui

On OS X:

Install Xcode from AppStore
Install homebrew
Install Superior dependencies:

brew install boost --c++11

brew install openssl - to install openssl headers

brew install pkgconfig

brew install cmake

brew install qt5 (or download QT 5.8+ from qt.io)

If you have an older version of Qt installed via homebrew, you can force it to use 5.x like so:

brew link --force --overwrite qt5

Install latest Qt using official installer from qt.io (homebrew version might be outdated).
Add Qt bin dir to your path (check first if directory exists; 5.8 is the current version)

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/Qt/5.8/clang_64/bin
Add Qt bin dir to your path. Example:

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/opt/qt5/bin

make sure this is where Qt 5.x is installed on your system eg $HOME/Qt/5.8/clang_64/bin if you downloaded from qt.io.
Grab an up-to-date copy of the SuperiorCoinGUi repository.

git clone https://github.com/TheSuperiorCoin/GUIwallet.git

Go into the repository.

cd GUIwallet

Grab an up-to-date copy of the git clone https://github.com/TheSuperiorCoin/TheSuperiorCoin.git

change the name of that folder to Superior cd ..
Start the build:

./build.sh

The executable can be found in the build/release/bin folder.

Note: Workaround for "ERROR: Xcode not set up properly"

Edit $HOME/Qt/5.7/clang_64/mkspecs/features/mac/default_pre.prf

replace isEmpty($$list($$system("/usr/bin/xcrun -find xcrun 2>/dev/null")))

with isEmpty($$list($$system("/usr/bin/xcrun -find xcodebuild 2>/dev/null")))

On Windows: 64bit

Preparing the Build Environment

Download and install the MSYS2 installer, use the 64-bit download.
Open the MSYS shell via the MSYS2 Shell shortcut
Update packages using pacman:
```
  pacman -Syuu  
```
Exit the MSYS shell using Alt+F4
Edit the properties for the MSYS2 Shell shortcut changing "msys2_shell.bat" to "msys2_shell.cmd -mingw64".
Restart MSYS shell via modified shortcut and update packages again using pacman:
```
  pacman -Syuu  
```

Install dependencies:

To build for 64-bit Windows:

  pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain make mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake mingw-w64-x86_64-boost mingw-w64-x86_64-openssl mingw-w64-x86_64-zeromq mingw-w64-x86_64-libsodium

Open the MingW shell via MinGW-w64-Win64 Shell shortcut on 64-bit Windows. Note that if you are running 64-bit Windows, you will have both 64-bit and 32-bit MinGW shells.

Install git into msys2 environment:
```
pacman -S git
```
Install Qt5
```
mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5
```
- continue with installation
Open MinGW-w64 Win64 Shell shell:

%MSYS_ROOT%\msys2_shell.cmd -mingw64

Where %MSYS_ROOT% will be c:\msys64 if your host OS is x64-based

Clone repository:

cd
git clone https://github.com/TheSuperiorCoin/GUIwallet.git

Build the GUI:
```
cd GUIwallet
./build.sh
cd build
make deploy
```
The resulting executable can be found in .\release\bin
