hello, what's wrong? ( ubuntu 16-04 LTS 64 )

./genesis.py -s "/root/silentarmy/sa-solver --nonces 4000 -i" -t 1477641360 Traceback (most recent call last): File "./genesis.py", line 18, in from bitcoin.core import * ImportError: No module named 'bitcoin'

Thank you for you support

[sebastianst]

You need to use python3. I use Arch Linux, where python defaults to v3.6.2. Repeat the steps from getting started with the python3 equivalents and report if it works then. I'll add python3 as an explicit requirement to the readme then. Thanks!

i set python3 as default virtualenv and it works now Thank you

install python 3.6 as default python version on ubuntu 16.04

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jonathonf/python-3.6 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install python3.6 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3 python3 /usr/bin/python3.5 1 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3 python3 /usr/bin/python3.6 2 sudo update-alternatives --config python3 sudo rm /usr/bin/python3 sudo ln -s python3.5 /usr/bin/python3

then install python3-pip and change virtualenv

sudo apt install python3-pip virtualenv --python=/usr/bin/python3 GenesisZ
