Prerequisites
Java JDK - version 21 or higher.
Copy wget https://download.oracle.com/java/21/latest/jdk-21_linux-x64_bin.deb
sudo apt install ./jdk-21_linux-x64_bin.deb Alternatively, you can manually install the Java JDK .
500 GB of disk space and 12 GB RAM is recommended.
Ubuntu 20.04 or MacOS High Sierra 10.13 or later versions.
Tip before running in Linux:
If synchronizing to Mainnet on Linux or other chains with large data requirements, increase the maximum number of open files allowed using ulimit . If the open files limit is not high enough, a Too many open files RocksDB exception occurs.
Get Started
Bitrock-Mainnet Genesis File: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BitrockChain/genesis/main/mainnet.json
1. Create Directory
Copy mkdir bitrock_node
cd bitrock_node
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BitrockChain/genesis/main/mainnet.json 2. Create Configuration File
Create a chain_config.toml with the following options:
Copy #Enode Pointing
bootnodes=["enode://1fd6bfa1ac606ab3cdbbbacef1b27a1e38b0ac54d5c1a361d07a27211b54b4817aa9b14e596f23c7020d246998f5224ae18882b181dad2ee940d774a085eb7bd@157.245.21.183:30303","enode://5bca2ebdd0f8e6eb7d916ac92edd3a3ca9f18f99c869c2df703c0457d572b3f7baa8e70880a751204988d97d90fe0566ac5917603981248121e3fc428dee25aa@157.230.28.40:30303"]
