Your wallet.
Your choice of chain.
Two independent Electrum servers. A straightforward connection to Bitcoin or BIP110, with the settings you need in one place.

01 / CHOOSE YOUR NETWORKTwo chains.
Two chains.
Two addresses.
Choose the server that matches your wallet.
Both use port 50002 with SSL enabled.
BIP110 · FORK NETWORK
BIP110
The BIP110 fork network. Use Shrike or a wallet specifically compatible with its BLAKE2b headers.
SERVER HOSTNAME
bip110.fulcron.inPort 50002SSL On
Shrike setup guide Same port, different networks. The hostname selects your server. Use the full hostname rather than an IP address, and keep SSL enabled.
02 / MAKE THE CONNECTIONA few settings.
A few settings.
Then you’re in.
No account or server password needed. You only need your wallet and the connection details.
- 01
Open your network settings
In Electrum desktop, open Tools → Network, or click the connection indicator. Other wallets may call this “Server” or “Network settings.”
- 02
Choose your own server
Disable automatic server selection and enter these settings:
- Hostname
fulcron.in- Port
- 50002
- SSL / TLS
- Enabled
- 03
Connect and let the wallet sync
Apply the settings and wait for the wallet’s connection indicator. Balances and history may take a moment to refresh.
Official Electrum website
Using Electrum from the command line?
This selects SSL and restricts the wallet to this server:
electrum --oneserver --server fulcron.in:50002:s- 01
Open Shrike’s server settings
Open Settings → Server and choose a private Electrum server. This endpoint speaks Electrum, so choose that option rather than a direct node / RPC connection.
- 02
Add the BIP110 server
If your wallet has separate fields, use the values below. For a single server URL field, paste
ssl://bip110.fulcron.in:50002.- Hostname
bip110.fulcron.in- Port
- 50002
- SSL / TLS
- Enabled
- 03
Connect on the fork network
Apply the settings. Shrike’s server toggle turns blue when connected to an Electrum server. Allow time for wallet history to load.
Official Shrike connection guide
A standard BTC wallet may not support this network. Changing the server address alone does not make a wallet BIP110-compatible.
03 / GOOD TO KNOWA little clarity
A little clarity
before you connect.
What does an Electrum server do?
It indexes blockchain data so your wallet can look up transactions, balances and history, and submit transactions. Your wallet handles your keys and signs transactions locally. Connecting to this server does not require sharing your seed phrase.
Do I paste the whole address or just the hostname?
For separate fields, enter the hostname, port 50002, and enable SSL. For a wallet that accepts server URLs, use the full ssl://…:50002 address. Electrum’s command-line format is different; see its command in the Bitcoin guide above.
Why isn’t my wallet connecting?
Check the network, hostname, port and SSL setting. Use the hostname rather than the VPS IP, because both servers share a port and use the hostname to select the right endpoint. If automatic selection is enabled, the wallet may switch to another server. A certificate warning is a reason to stop and check the address, rather than bypass verification.
Can the server see my wallet activity?
A server can observe the address queries and network address your wallet sends it. SSL encrypts the connection in transit; it does not hide your queries from the server operator. You can run your own node and indexer for greater privacy.
Does this page claim or move any coins?
No. This page only provides connection instructions. It never asks for a recovery phrase, private key or wallet upload. Connecting to a server does not automatically claim, split or move coins; any fork-related wallet operations are separate from this guide.
