Title: Now running a full node!
Post by: izza123 on August 02, 2017, 02:44:00 PM
Im very excited to announce i am now running a BTC full node to aid in the relaying of transactions! Im also looking forward to running an electrum server. Can anybody tell me if they can be run on the same machine? I know the electrum server runs off the full node in some capacity, i just wanted to make sure they can run at the same time.

I think you will get quality responses if you posted on the mining section. I could be wrong, but it wouldnt hurt posting there. Congratulations!

Im not 100% sure on this but I do believe it is possible. You would have to run the other node with a different port(Bitcoin runs on port:8333) and just make sure the directories for both programs are different.
