Bisq Seed Node

Hardware

Highly recommended to use SSD! Minimum specs:

  • CPU: 4 cores
  • RAM: 8 GB
  • SSD: 512 GB (HDD is too slow)

Software

The following OS's are known to work well:

  • Ubuntu 18.04
  • Ubuntu 20.04
  • FreeBSD 12

Installation

Start with a clean Ubuntu server installation, and run the script

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bisq-network/bisq/master/seednode/install_seednode_debian.sh | sudo bash

This will install and configure Tor, Bitcoin, and Bisq-Seednode services to start on boot.

Firewall

Next, configure your OS firewall to only allow SSH and Bitcoin P2P

ufw allow 22/tcp
ufw allow 8333/tcp
ufw enable

Syncing

After installation, watch the Bitcoin blockchain sync progress

sudo tail -f /bitcoin/debug.log

After Bitcoin is fully synced, start the bisq service

sudo systemctl start bisq
sudo journalctl --unit bisq --follow

After Bisq is fully synced, check your Bitcoin and Bisq onion hostnames:

sudo -H -u bitcoin bitcoin-cli getnetworkinfo|grep address
sudo cat /bisq/bisq-seednode/btc_mainnet/tor/hiddenservice/hostname

Testing

After your Bisq seednode is ready, test it by connecting to your new btcnode and bisq!

macOS:

/Applications/Bisq.app/Contents/MacOS/Bisq --seedNodes=foo.onion:8000 --btcNodes=foo.onion:8333

Monitoring

If you run a main seednode, you also are obliged to activate the monitoring feed by running

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bisq-network/bisq/master/monitor/install_collectd_debian.sh)

Follow the instruction given by the script and report your certificate to the seednode group!

Upgrading

To upgrade your seednode to a new tag, for example v1.2.5

sudo -u bisq -s
cd bisq
git fetch origin
git checkout v1.2.5 # new tag
./gradlew clean build -x test
exit
sudo service bisq restart
sudo journalctl --unit bisq --follow

Uninstall

If you need to start over, you can run the uninstall script in this repo

sudo ./delete_seednode_debian.sh

WARNING: this script will delete all data!
