1. Update the config file:
insight/node_modules/insight-bitcore-api/config/config.js
change the port number and dataDir.
2. Update the exports.livenet sections in file networks.js:
insight/node_modules/bitcore/networks.js
For Litecoin:
exports.livenet = {
name: 'livenet',
magic: hex('fbc0b6db'),
addressVersion: 0x30,
privKeyVersion: 0xb0,
P2SHVersion: 5,
hkeyPublicVersion: 0x0488c42e,
hkeyPrivateVersion: 0x0488e1f4,
genesisBlock: {
hash: hex('E2BF047E7E5A191AA4EF34D314979DC9986E0F19251EDABA5940FD1FE365A712'),
merkle_root: hex('D9CED4ED1130F7B7FAAD9BE25323FFAFA33232A17C3EDF6CFD97BEE6BAFBDD97'),
height: 0,
nonce: 2084524493,
version: 1,
prev_hash: buffertools.fill(new Buffer(32), 0),
timestamp: 1317972665,
bits: 504365040,
},
dnsSeeds: [
'dnsseed.litecointools.com',
'dnsseed.litecoinpool.org',
'dnsseed.ltc.xurious.com',
'dnsseed.koin-project.com',
'dnsseed.weminemnc.com'
],
defaultClientPort: 9333
};
For Dogecoin:
exports.livenet = {
name: 'livenet',
magic: hex('c0c0c0c0'),
addressVersion: 0x1e,
privKeyVersion: 0x9e,
P2SHVersion: 5,
hkeyPublicVersion: 0x0488c42e,
hkeyPrivateVersion: 0x0488e1f4,
genesisBlock: {
hash: hex('9156352c1818b32e90c9e792efd6a11a82fe7956a630f03bbee236cedae3911a'),
merkle_root: hex('696ad20e2dd4365c7459b4a4a5af743d5e92c6da3229e6532cd605f6533f2a5b'),
height: 0,
nonce: 99943,
version: 1,
prev_hash: buffertools.fill(new Buffer(32), 0),
timestamp: 1386325540,

},
dnsSeeds: [
'seed.dogecoin.com',
'seed.mophides.com',
'seed.dglibrary.org',
'seed.dogechain.info'
],
defaultClientPort: 22556
};
3. update PROTOCOL_VERSION to accept RPC connections.
Open the following file:
insight/node_modules/bitcore/lib/Connection.js
change:
var PROTOCOL_VERSION = 70000;
to:
var PROTOCOL_VERSION = 70003;
