Please note that code is developed on the dev branch, if you want to check out the latest updates, before they are merged on main branch, please refer there. Master branch will always point to a version that we consider stable, so you can download the code by simply typing git clone https://github.com/sumoprojects/sumokoin.git
Sumokoin (スモコイン in Japanese) is a fork from Monero, one of the most respectable cryptocurrency well-known for security, privacy, untraceability and active development. Starting as an educational project, we found that it would be great to create a new coin with high level of privacy by (1) moving forward right away to Ring Confidential Transactions (RingCT), (2) setting minimum transaction mixin to 12 that would greatly reduce chance of being attacked, traced or identified by (blockchain) statistical analysis.
Sumokoin, therefore, is a new Monero without its legacy, a truely fungible cryptocurrency among just a few ones in the market.
- Total supply: 88,888,888 coins in first 20 years, then 263,000 coins each year for inflation. About 10% (~8.8 million) was premined to reserve for future development, i.e. 80 million coins available for community mining.
- Coin symbol: SUMO
- Coin Units:
- 1 Sumoshi = 0.000000001 SUMO (10-9 - the smallest coin unit)
- 1 Sumokun = 0.000001 SUMO (10-6)
- 1 Sumosan = 0.001 SUMO (10-3)
- Hash algorithm: CryptoNight (Proof-Of-Work)
- Emission scheme: Sumokoin's block reward changes every 6-months as the following "Camel" distribution* (inspired by real-world mining production like of crude oil, coal etc. that is often slow at first, accelerated in the next few years before declined and depleted). However, the emission path of Sumokoin is generally not far apart from what of Bitcoin (view charts below).
* The emulated algorithm of Sumokoin block-reward emission can be found in Python and C++ scripts at scripts directory.
This is the core implementation of Sumokoin. 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 Sumokoin 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.
Anyone is welcome to contribute to Sumokoin's codebase! If you have a fix or code change, feel free to submit is as a pull request directly to the "master" branch. In cases where the change is relatively small or does not affect other parts of the codebase it may be merged in immediately by any one of the collaborators. On the other hand, if the change is particularly large or complex, it is expected that it will be discussed at length either well in advance of the pull request being submitted, or even directly on the pull request.

The following table summarizes the tools and libraries required to build. A
few of the libraries are also included in this repository (marked as
"Vendored"). By default, the build uses the library installed on the system,
and ignores the vendored sources. However, if no library is found installed on
the system, then the vendored source will be built and used. The vendored
sources are also used for statically-linked builds because distribution
packages often include only shared library binaries (.so
) but not static
library archives (.a
).

[^] On Debian/Ubuntu libgtest-dev
only includes sources and headers. You must
build the library binary manually. This can be done with the following command sudo apt-get install libgtest-dev && cd /usr/src/gtest && sudo cmake . && sudo make && sudo mv libg* /usr/lib/
Clone recursively to pull-in needed submodule(s):
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/sumoprojects/sumokoin
If you already have a repo cloned, initialize and update:
$ cd sumokoin && git submodule init && git submodule update
Sumokoin uses the CMake build system and a top-level Makefile that invokes cmake commands as needed.
-
Install the dependencies (see the list above)
- On Ubuntu, essential dependencies can be installed with the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install build-essential cmake pkg-config libboost-all-dev libssl-dev libzmq3-dev libunbound-dev libsodium-dev libunwind8-dev liblzma-dev libreadline6-dev libldns-dev libexpat1-dev doxygen graphviz libpcsclite-dev
-
Change to the root of the source code directory and build:
cd sumokoin make
Optional: If your machine has several cores and enough memory, enable parallel build by running
make -j<number of threads>
instead ofmake
. For this to be worthwhile, the machine should have one core and about 2GB of RAM available per thread. -
The resulting executables can be found in
build/release/bin
-
Add
PATH="$PATH:$HOME/sumokoin/build/release/bin"
to.profile
-
Run Sumokoin with
sumokoind --detach
-
Optional: build and run the test suite to verify the binaries:
make release-test
NOTE:
coretests
test may take a few hours to complete. -
Optional: to build binaries suitable for debugging:
make debug
-
Optional: to build statically-linked binaries:
make release-static
Dependencies need to be built with -fPIC. Static libraries usually aren't, so you may have to build them yourself with -fPIC. Refer to their documentation for how to build them.
-
Optional: build documentation in
doc/html
(omitHAVE_DOT=YES
ifgraphviz
is not installed):HAVE_DOT=YES doxygen Doxyfile
Tested on a Raspberry Pi 2 with a clean install of minimal Debian Jessie from https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/
-
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
to install all of the latest software -
Install the dependencies for Sumokoin from the 'Debian' column in the table above.
-
Increase the system swap size:
sudo /etc/init.d/dphys-swapfile stop
sudo nano /etc/dphys-swapfile
CONF_SWAPSIZE=1024
sudo /etc/init.d/dphys-swapfile start
- Clone sumokoin and checkout most recent release version:
git clone https://github.com/sumoprojects/sumokoin.git
cd sumokoin
git checkout tags/v0.4.0.0
- Build:
make release
-
Wait 4-6 hours
-
The resulting executables can be found in
build/release/bin
-
Add
PATH="$PATH:$HOME/sumokoin/build/release/bin"
to.profile
-
Run Sumokoin with
sumokoind --detach
-
You may wish to reduce the size of the swap file after the build has finished, and delete the boost directory from your home directory
If you are using the older Raspbian Jessie image, compiling Sumokoin is a bit more complicated. The version of Boost available in the Debian Jessie repositories is too old to use with Sumokoin, and thus you must compile a newer version yourself. The following explains the extra steps, and has been tested on a Raspberry Pi 2 with a clean install of minimal Raspbian Jessie.
- As before,
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
to install all of the latest software, and increase the system swap size
sudo /etc/init.d/dphys-swapfile stop
sudo nano /etc/dphys-swapfile
CONF_SWAPSIZE=1024
sudo /etc/init.d/dphys-swapfile start
-
Then, install the dependencies for Sumokoin except
libunwind
andlibboost-all-dev
-
Install the latest version of boost (this may first require invoking
apt-get remove --purge libboost*
to remove a previous version if you're not using a clean install):
cd
wget https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.64.0/boost_1_64_0.tar.bz2
tar xvfo boost_1_64_0.tar.bz2
cd boost_1_64_0
./bootstrap.sh
sudo ./b2
- Wait ~8 hours
sudo ./bjam install
-
Wait ~4 hours
-
From here, follow the general Raspberry Pi instructions from the "Clone sumokoin and checkout most recent release version" step.
Binaries for Windows are built on Windows using the MinGW toolchain within MSYS2 environment. The MSYS2 environment emulates a POSIX system. The toolchain runs within the environment and cross-compiles binaries that can run outside of the environment as a regular Windows application.
Preparing the Build Environment
-
Download and install the MSYS2 installer, either the 64-bit or the 32-bit package, depending on your system.
-
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" for 64-bit builds or "msys2_shell.cmd -mingw32" for 32-bit builds -
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
To build for 32-bit Windows:
pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain make mingw-w64-i686-cmake mingw-w64-i686-boost mingw-w64-i686-openssl mingw-w64-i686-zeromq mingw-w64-i686-libsodium
-
Open the MingW shell via
MinGW-w64-Win64 Shell
shortcut on 64-bit Windows orMinGW-w64-Win64 Shell
shortcut on 32-bit Windows. Note that if you are running 64-bit Windows, you will have both 64-bit and 32-bit MinGW shells.
Building
-
Make sure path to MSYS2 installed directory in
Makefile
is correct. -
If you are on a 64-bit system, run:
make release-static-win64
-
If you are on a 32-bit system, run:
make release-static-win32
-
The resulting executables can be found in
build/release/bin
.
-
Update packages and install the dependencies (on FreeBSD 11.0 x64):
pkg update; pkg install wget git pkgconf gcc49 cmake db6 icu libevent unbound googletest ldns expat bison boost-libs cppzmq;
-
Clone source code, change to the root of the source code directory and build:
git clone https://github.com/sumoprojects/sumokoin; cd sumokoin; make release-static;
If you are running Sumokoin in a jail you need to add the flag: allow.sysvipc=1
to your jail configuration, otherwise lmdb will throw the error message: Failed to open lmdb environment: Function not implemented
.
This has been tested on OpenBSD 5.8.
You will need to add a few packages to your system. pkg_add db cmake gcc gcc-libs g++ miniupnpc gtest
.
The doxygen and graphviz packages are optional and require the xbase set.
The Boost package has a bug that will prevent librpc.a from building correctly. In order to fix this, you will have to Build boost yourself from scratch. Follow the directions here (under "Building Boost"): https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-openbsd.md
You will have to add the serialization, date_time, and regex modules to Boost when building as they are needed by Sumokoin.
To build: env CC=egcc CXX=eg++ CPP=ecpp DEVELOPER_LOCAL_TOOLS=1 BOOST_ROOT=/path/to/the/boost/you/built make release-static-64
You will need to add a few packages to your system. pkg_add cmake miniupnpc zeromq libiconv
.
The doxygen and graphviz packages are optional and require the xbase set.
Build the Boost library using clang. This guide is derived from: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-openbsd.md
We assume you are compiling with a non-root user and you have doas
enabled.
Note: do not use the boost package provided by OpenBSD, as we are installing boost to /usr/local
.

By default, in either dynamically or statically linked builds, binaries target the specific host processor on which the build happens and are not portable to other processors. Portable binaries can be built using the following targets:
make release-static-64
builds binaries on Linux on x86_64 portable across POSIX systems on x86_64 processorsmake release-static-32
builds binaries on Linux on x86_64 or i686 portable across POSIX systems on i686 processorsmake release-static-armv8

builds binaries on Linux portable across POSIX systems on armv7 processorsmake release-static-armv6
builds binaries on Linux portable across POSIX systems on armv6 processorsmake release-static-win64
builds binaries on 64-bit Windows portable across 64-bit Windows systemsmake release-static-win32
builds binaries on 64-bit or 32-bit Windows portable across 32-bit Windows systems
The default Solaris linker can't be used, you have to install GNU ld, then run cmake manually with the path to your copy of GNU ld:
mkdir -p build/release
cd build/release
cmake -DCMAKE_LINKER=/path/to/ld -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../..
cd ../..
Then you can run make as usual.
The build places the binary in bin/
sub-directory within the build directory
from which cmake was invoked (repository root by default). To run in
foreground:
./bin/sumokoind
To list all available options, run ./bin/sumokoind --help
. Options can be
specified either on the command line or in a configuration file passed by the
--config-file
argument. To specify an option in the configuration file, add
a line with the syntax argumentname=value
, where argumentname
is the name
of the argument without the leading dashes, for example log-level=1
.
To run in background:
./bin/sumokoind --log-file sumokoind.log --detach
To run as a systemd service, copy
sumokoind.service to /etc/systemd/system/
and
sumokoind.conf to /etc/
. The example
service assumes that the user sumokoin
exists
and its home is the data directory specified in the example
config.
If you're on Mac, you may need to add the --max-concurrency 1
option to
sumo-wallet-cli, and possibly sumokoind, if you get crashes refreshing.
While Sumokoin isn't made to integrate with Tor, it can be used wrapped with torsocks, by setting the following configuration parameters and environment variables:
--p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1
on the command line orp2p-bind-ip=127.0.0.1
in sumokoind.conf to disable listening for connections on external interfaces.--no-igd
on the command line orno-igd=1
in sumokoind.conf to disable IGD (UPnP port forwarding negotiation), which is pointless with Tor.DNS_PUBLIC=tcp
orDNS_PUBLIC=tcp://x.x.x.x
where x.x.x.x is the IP of the desired DNS server, for DNS requests to go over TCP, so that they are routed through Tor. When IP is not specified, sumokoind uses the default list of servers defined in src/common/dns_utils.cpp.TORSOCKS_ALLOW_INBOUND=1
to tell torsocks to allow sumokoind to bind to interfaces to accept connections from the wallet. On some Linux systems, torsocks allows binding to localhost by default, so setting this variable is only necessary to allow binding to local LAN/VPN interfaces to allow wallets to connect from remote hosts. On other systems, it may be needed for local wallets as well.- Do NOT pass
--detach
when running through torsocks with systemd, (see utils/systemd/sumokoind.service for details). - If you use the wallet with a Tor daemon via the loopback IP (eg, 127.0.0.1:9050),
then use
--untrusted-daemon
unless it is your own hidden service.
Example command line to start sumokoind through Tor:
DNS_PUBLIC=tcp torsocks sumokoind --p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1 --no-igd
TAILS ships with a very restrictive set of firewall rules. Therefore, you need to add a rule to allow this connection too, in addition to telling torsocks to allow inbound connections. Full example:
sudo iptables -I OUTPUT 2 -p tcp -d 127.0.0.1 -m tcp --dport 18081 -j ACCEPT
DNS_PUBLIC=tcp torsocks ./sumokoind --p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1 --no-igd --rpc-bind-ip 127.0.0.1 \
--data-dir /home/amnesia/Persistent/your/directory/to/the/blockchain
This section contains general instructions for debugging failed installs or problems encountered with Sumokoin. First ensure you are running the latest version built from the github repo.
We generally use the tool gdb
(GNU debugger) to provide stack trace functionality, and ulimit
to provide core dumps in builds which crash or segfault.
- To use gdb in order to obtain a stack trace for a build that has stalled:
Run the build.
Once it stalls, enter the following command:
gdb /path/to/sumokoind `pidof sumokoind`
Type thread apply all bt
within gdb in order to obtain the stack trace
- If however the core dumps or segfaults:
Enter ulimit -c unlimited
on the command line to enable unlimited filesizes for core dumps
Enter echo core | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
to stop cores from being hijacked by other tools
Run the build.
When it terminates with an output along the lines of "Segmentation fault (core dumped)", there should be a core dump file in the same directory as sumokoind. It may be named just core
, or core.xxxx
with numbers appended.
You can now analyse this core dump with gdb
as follows:
gdb /path/to/sumokoind /path/to/dumpfile
Print the stack trace with bt
- To run sumokoin within gdb:
Type gdb /path/to/sumokoind
Pass command-line options with --args
followed by the relevant arguments
Type run
to run sumokoind
We use the tool valgrind
for this.
Run with valgrind /path/to/sumokoind
. It will be slow.
Instructions for debugging suspected blockchain corruption as per @HYC
There is an mdb_stat
command in the LMDB source that can print statistics about the database but it's not routinely built. This can be built with the following command:
cd ~/sumokoin/external/db_drivers/liblmdb && make
The output of mdb_stat -ea <path to blockchain dir>
will indicate inconsistencies in the blocks, block_heights and block_info table.
The output of mdb_dump -s blocks <path to blockchain dir>
and mdb_dump -s block_info <path to blockchain dir>
is useful for indicating whether blocks and block_info contain the same keys.
These records are dumped as hex data, where the first line is the key and the second line is the data.
