Quick Start
Install Canxium Node
A Canxium node is a single go-canxium binary running PoW 2.0 - follow the Run a PoW 2.0 Node guide to build, initialize and start it (with or without mining).
Syncing may take some time. If you run it as a systemd service, confirm connection and sync status with:
bash
journalctl -f -u canxiumSet Up a Wallet
Cold Wallet
As part of its commitment to security, accessibility, and decentralization, Canxium has integrated support with Tangem, a next-generation cold wallet solution. Tangem is currently the only hardware wallet that natively supports Canxium ($CAU), providing users with a secure and user-friendly way to store their assets offline.
Get Tangem Wallet: To purchase a Tangem wallet, visit Tangem's official website and download the Tangem Wallet App to start securely managing your CAU tokens.
