Wallet_Full Nodes_Witness_Nodes

We need a client to connect to. Either we run a witness in (monitor mode) or use a public trusted witness. For exchanges, it is though recommended to run a full node. We can connect to the network via a seed node:

programs/witness_node/witness_node -s 104.200.28.117:61705 --rpc-endpoint 127.0.0.1:8090  # FIXME?

This opens up a node that we can connect to via the inluded wallet

programs/cli_wallet/cli_wallet -s ws://127.0.0.1:8090 -H 127.0.0.1:8091

which will open port 8091 for HTTP-RPC requests and has the capabilities to handle accounts while the witness_node can only answer queries to the blockchain.
