Hello all,
I have written up an extensive guide on building a node box in Ubuntu 18.04. It's aimed at newcomers who wish to use Linux as an operating system or are thinking about making the switch from Windows to Linux.
It covers the basics of installing, configuring, running and maintaining software related to bitcoin. I add my own commentary to elaborate key points.
It is not aimed to be a 'quick and easy' guide. It's more about learning the process and understanding, something I believe is key to financial sovereignty. Everything is configured manually, no scripts, no dockers, no complex terminal commands that you will find difficult to understand.
My intention is to provide you with the basic skills to get you up and running into the world of bitcoin/lightning network using Ubuntu and from there you can explore what else it has to offer. I aim to make other guides in future as well. I'm thinking guides on Blockstream Satellite, maybe HoneyMiner, and making a fully stacked torrent box/media server.
I will say that by no means am I an expert in all things linux/ubuntu. These are just learnings from my own exploration. For feedback, you can hit me up on twitter (@k3tan88) or leave an issue on the GitHub.
