Linux images for crypto & blockchain education and development

Cryptotux

Cryptotux is a Linux image preconfigured with tools for cryptoassets, blockchains and Distributed Ledger Technologies. It has been conceived to be an educational tool and a development environment.

Cryptotux is currently supplied as .ova images that can be directly imported into Virtualbox (6.X+) and VMWare. This allows to jump-start workshops directly to code or to test new nodes in an isolated manner. It can also be directly installed on a server or on Windows Subsystem for Linux.

cryptotux's Issues

Cryptotux-server 0.5 fails to launch

Hi, it seems there is an error related to the VM shared folders (the paths look the same). Though, removing the shared folders from the VM settings doesn't fix it :

RawFile#0 failed to create the raw output file /home/jordan/code/cryptotux/ubuntu-bionic-18.04-cloudimg-console.log (VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND).
