Title: Setting up a dedicated Bitcoin Node on ubuntu Post by: vm1990 on May 31, 2014, 09:55:21 AM OK for a change im almost a noob on this one but he's what's happening
Iv seen a few people complain about the network needing more full block chain nodes so I decided to set up a mini vps 1core 1gb Ram 25gb HDD, and now the hard part I'm windows not Linux person I get angry at Linux ( sudo - apt -get stuffed) is as complicated as if got but it either Ubuntu or nothing so question time Quickest and easiest way to set up bitcoin core with maximum connections? Thank you Also if this works out I'll have almost unlimited number of these servers available Title: Re: Setting up a dedicated Bitcoin Node on ubuntu Post by: Newar on June 01, 2014, 05:09:24 AM Some pointers here:
