Installation on LINUX Operating System (Ubuntu)

Minimum device requirements

• RAM memory – 1024 MB / 1 GB
• Processor – 2 Core – 2.0 Ghz
• Storage – 10 GB

To create a BITSBR digital currency blockchain node and be able to validate transactions/mine and receive rewards in new currencies, follow the following steps:

1. Download the BITSBRnode software available at the link below and your node configuration files and install it on your device.
   • https://github.com/bitsbr/bitsbr/releases/
     • Ubuntu
       • sudo apt-get install wget
       • mkdir bitsbr (create folder)
       • cd bitsbr (access folder)
       • wget https://github.com/bitsbr/bitsbr/releases/download/bitsbr/bitsbr-all-1.0.jar (Main file download)
       • wget https://github.com/bitsbr/bitsbr/releases/download/bitsbr/bitsbr.conf (Settings file download)
2. Install dependencies and configure the node with your preferences, including firewall and security settings.
   • Configurations and installation of dependencies for UBUNTU
     • sudo apt-get update
     • sudo apt-get install default-jre
     • sudo apt-get install screen
     • Release ports 9890 (mandatory) and 9899 (optional) to allow integration with the BITSBR network
       • ufw allow 9890 or sudo iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -m tcp – -dport 9890 -j ACCEPT
       • ufw allow 9899 or sudo iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -m tcp – -dport 9899 -j ACCEPT
     • Create your wallet to be integrated with the node so you can receive your rewards through our decentralized web wallet https://wallet.bitsbr.org/
     • Edit the settings file bitsbr.conf According to the requested information, use the following link to complete the process.
       • https://bitsbr.github.io/ (Converts your portfolio keywords into BASE58 format)
       • https://nodes.bitsbr.org/api-docs/index.html#/utils/hashSecure (Converts the password you created for your node-integrated wallet into a Secure Hash)
       • Note: Never place the bitsbr.conf file in a publicly accessible folder.
3. Launch and Sync the node with the BITSBR blockchain. This may take some time depending on the speed of your internet connection.
   • To start your node run the following command:
     • screen -d -m -S BTBRNODE java -jar /installation directory*/bitsbr/bitsbr-all-1.0.jar/installation directory*/bitsbr/bitsbr.conf
       • * Change according to your installation directory.
     • After executing the command above, wait a few minutes and check if your IP address is already in our list of NODES, it usually takes about 30 minutes.

4. Obtain a sufficient amount of BITSBR through the exchanges where the currency is listed or through Exchange DEX to become a full node. Currently, it is necessary to have at least 1000 BTBRs.
5. Update your mining settings and start mining blocks on the BITSBR blockchain.
6. Keep your copy of the blockchain updated and your security settings to be able to generate new blocks and earn new rewards. The greater the balance in your node-integrated wallet, the greater your chances of receiving rewards.

Remember that being a full node on the blockchain BITSBR It requires dedication and responsibility, as you will be helping to maintain the integrity of the network and your node must be active 24 hours a day. But at the same time, you will have the opportunity to earn rewards in BTBRs for your participation.
