Guide
Here is a node installation guide (Simplified and manual)
Preparing the server for installation
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
sudo apt install curl tar wget clang pkg-config libssl-dev jq build-essential bsdmainutils git make ncdu gcc git jq chrony liblz4-tool -y
Installing the latest version of Go
ver="1.20.3"
cd $HOME
wget "https://golang.org/dl/go$ver.linux-amd64.tar.gz"
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf "go$ver.linux-amd64.tar.gz"
rm "go$ver.linux-amd64.tar.gz"
echo "export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin:$HOME/go/bin" >> ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bash_profile
Build
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/bitsongofficial/go-bitsong/
cd go-bitsong
git checkout v0.14.0
make install
Init your node
bitsongd init <YOUR_MONIKER> --chain-id bitsong-2b
bitsongd config chain-id bitsong-2b
Create or recover your wallet
#NEW WALLET
bitsongd keys add <WALLET_NAME>
#RECOVER OLD WALLET
bitsongd keys add <WALLET_NAME> --recover
Download Genesis
wget -O $HOME/.bitsongd/config/genesis.json "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitsongofficial/networks/master/bitsong-2b/genesis.json"
Set up the minimum gas price and Peers/Seeds/Filter peers/MaxPeers
sed -i.bak -e "s/^minimum-gas-prices *=.*/minimum-gas-prices = \"0.001ubtsg\"/;" ~/.bitsongd/config/app.toml
external_address=$(wget -qO- eth0.me)
sed -i.bak -e "s/^external_address *=.*/external_address = \"$external_address:26656\"/" $HOME/.bitsongd/config/config.toml
peers="2af83a42fc643ddeeb5a1a10afc70fe0fa7e9201@wisdom.bonded.zone:26956"
sed -i.bak -e "s/^persistent_peers *=.*/persistent_peers = \"$peers\"/" $HOME/.bitsongd/config/config.toml
seeds=""
sed -i.bak -e "s/^seeds =.*/seeds = \"$seeds\"/" $HOME/.bitsongd/config/config.toml
Download addrbook
wget -O $HOME/.bitsongd/config/addrbook.json "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nodersteam/cosmos-adrbook/main/bitsong/addrbook.json"
To connect the node to monitoring (optional), enable prometheus activation
sed -i -e "s/prometheus = false/prometheus = true/" $HOME/.bitsongd/config/config.toml
Create a service file
sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/bitsongd.service > /dev/null <<EOF

Start your node
sudo systemctl daemon-reload && sudo systemctl enable bitsongd
sudo systemctl restart bitsongd && sudo journalctl -u bitsongd -f -o cat
Buy some tokens on OSMOSIS
Wait for full synchronization and create a validator
bitsongd tx staking create-validator \
--amount=1000000ubtsg \
--pubkey=$(bitsongd tendermint show-validator) \
--moniker="<YOUR_MONIKER>" \
--chain-id=bitsong-2b \
--commission-rate="0.10" \
--commission-max-rate="0.20" \
--commission-max-change-rate="0.01" \
--min-self-delegation="1" \
--fees 2000ubtsg \
--from=<WALLET_NAME> -y
If you want to delete a node
sudo systemctl stop bitsongd && \
sudo systemctl disable bitsongd && \
rm /etc/systemd/system/bitsongd.service && \
sudo systemctl daemon-reload && \
cd $HOME && \
rm -rf .bitsongd && \
rm -rf go-bitsong && \
rm -rf $(which bitsongd)
