The procedure to execute a complete Bitcoin node, in this case the Bitcoin Core implementation, is very simple. Update your system first.
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
Then install snap: sudo apt install snapd
See if you installed it correctly: snap version
Get pelo bitcoin core: snap find bitcoin core
Install: sudo snap install bitcoin kernel
Now you can run your full node from the terminal by going to the “/snap/bin/bitcoin-core.daemon” directory or running the application graphically.
If you need to show an external directory to store the blockchain, use the following syntax in the terminal “bitcoin-core.daemon -datadir = / mnt / HDD / Bitcoin” (without quotes), where “/ mnt / HDD / Bitcoin “is the path to just” Bitcoin “on your external hard drive.
* Note: ideal is to download the bitcoin code, verify the signatures and compile on your machine. But the above procedure is reliable if you do not keep funds with values ​​that you can not lose.
