Once you run the daemon, it will first sync the chain. After it is synced it will begin mining blocks. If you don't wish to mine remov the -gen option from the command line.
Now that you have your node up you can use `btcp-cli` to make RPC calls to your node (i.e `./src/btcp-cli -testnet getinfo`).
Create a Batch file in the BTCP directory called "start-wallet.bat" with the following:
```echo "Starting the BTCP Wallet"
powershell -Command ".btcpd.exe" -testnet -gen
@pause``
Run start-wallet.bat and the blockchain will begin to be synced. After it is synced it will begin mining blocks. If you don't wish to mine remov the -gen option from the batch file.
Now that you have your node up you can use `btcp-cli.exe` in cmd to make RPC calls to your node (i.e `btcp-cli.exe -testnet getinfo`).
