Nibiru testnet 1 guide

Minimum Hardware Requirements

1. 4x CPUs; the faster clock speed the better
2. 8GB RAM
3. 100GB of storage (SSD or NVME)
4. Permanent Internet connection (traffic will be minimal during testnet; 10Mbps will be plenty – for production at least 100Mbps is expected)

Recommended Hardware Requirements

1. 8x CPUs; the faster clock speed the better
2. 64GB RAM
3. 1TB of storage (SSD or NVME)
4. Permanent Internet connection (traffic will be minimal during testnet; 10Mbps will be plenty – for production at least 100Mbps is expected)

Clone repository and install binary

cd $HOME && rm -rf nibiru
git clone https://github.com/NibiruChain/nibiru.git
cd nibiru
git checkout v0.15.0
make install

Initialize your node

nibid init Yourmoniker --chain-id nibiru-testnet-1

Download the latest genesis

curl -s https://rpc.testnet-1.nibiru.fi/genesis | jq -r .result.genesis > $HOME/.nibid/config/genesis.json

Setup the persistent peers

SEEDS=""
PEERS="37713248f21c37a2f022fbbb7228f02862224190@35.243.130.198:26656,ff59bff2d8b8fb6114191af7063e92a9dd637bd9@35.185.114.96:26656,cb431d789fe4c3f94873b0769cb4fce5143daf97@35.227.113.63:26656"
sed -i -e "s/^seeds *=.*/seeds = \"$SEEDS\"/; s/^persistent_peers *=.*/persistent_peers = \"$PEERS\"/" $HOME/.nibid/config/config.toml

Start your node as a service
