How to host a Chaincoin Masternode on windows.
Check your Firewall and your router. My router was using dhcp and i needed a static ip and that port forwarded.

You'll need to purchase a VPS then, or pay the fee, I guess..

This happens often on windows 10 , what some users did was the following to the config file:
Add to chaincoin.conf
masternodeaddr=192.168.8.100 / Your local IPv4 address
externalip=YourIPaddress:11994

Will this fix the static ip address issue? I also have a dynamic ip address, could you make it more clear how I need to edit the config file? What is local IPv4?

Thank you. Jeffblogs solution works on windows 7 aswell. Only 1 tweak.
masternodeaddr = Local IPv4 Address (no need for this first thing 192.168.8.100, it will throw you an error)

wish I would have read your response before proceeding with altering the file. How do I get the log file back to alter it? I can't go into the program anymore.
