The Blockchain

Now how do we deploy it to the Ethereum Blockchain, or rather an Ethereum Testnet

Deploying via Mac OS-X

Install the latest Ethereum Wallet App and Mist Browser Here: https://github.com/ethereum/mist/releases

Open The “Mist Browser App”

Wait for the “Launch Application” to appear

Click it to open the App Window

Wait for that to Load

You can close the Mist Browser App Now

Now Open The “Ethereum Wallet App”

****You don’t need to let it Update, as we will be using a solo Testnet for this project

Launch Application

Wait for the “Launch Application” to appear

Click it to open the App Window

In the top nav click on

> Develop

> Network

> Solo Network

In the Upper Right Side of the App

Navigate to the “CONTRACTS” tab

Click on “Deploy New Contract +”

In the “From” text box make sure “Main Account (Etherbase)” is selected

Copy paste your source code that we created in the previous section into the “SOLIDITY CONTRACT SOURCE CODE” text box

It’ll automatically compile it

****If you’ve made a mistake it’ll show up and won’t run

On the right-hand side if everything is kosher a “Select Contract” dropdown will appear

Select your MyTokanium or your tokens name as defined in your source code

The parameter fields should now generate below the contract you selected

Fill in your parameters

Just Enter the number of coins in this example

Since this is a solo Testnet you don’t need to pay yourself a fee

Now click Deploy

A Confirmation Box will now Popup prompting you for a password

Leave the password field blank if you’re using the Main Account of the Solo Testnet

Click Confirm and Deploy it

It’ll now create the contract and add it to your private blockchain

Once it gets mined and you receive 12 confirmations the transaction will have processed and your coin will be usable
