In this simple guide, I will show you how to put a complete Side Protocol project node. I'm sure you will be able to get it up and running quickly if you use my guide! Be sure to subscribe to my social networks, they will be listed at the end of the guide.

Run a Full Node

Testnet Configuration

• Chain ID: grimoria-testnet-1

• RPC: https://testnet-rpc.side.one

• Rest: https://testnet-rest.side.one

• gRPC: https://testnet-grpc.side.one:443

• Persistence Nodes: 6bef0693d7a31fed473b95123ad19b544b414093@202.182.119.24:26656,44f8009ed91fddd7ee51117482ede20fb4f33e78@149.28.156.79:26656

Hardware Requirement

• CPU: 4 cores

Build Sided from Source code

git clone https://github.com/sideprotocol/side.git
cd side
git checkout v0.9.0
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin

Compile the sided binary:

make install
sided version

Adding keys to the keyring

sided keys add test --key-type="segwit"

Initialize the Node

sided init <MY_SIDE_VALIDATOR> --chain-id=grimoria-testnet-1

Download The Genesis file

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sideprotocol/testnet/main/grimoria-testnet-1/genesis.json -O $HOME/.side/config/genesis.json

Adding seeds and persistent peers

cd $HOME/.side/config
nano config.toml

persistent_peers = "6bef0693d7a31fed473b95123ad19b544b414093@202.182.119.24:26656,44f8009ed91fddd7ee51117482ede20fb4f33e78@149.28.156.79:26656"

Set up min gas price

# in app.toml file
minimum-gas-prices = "0.005uside"

Start Node and Sync

sided tendermint unsafe-reset-all 
sided start
