How to Set Up a STEEM Exchange Node in 60 minutes or less

in #steem7 years ago

To make it easier for exchanges to adopt and run STEEM, we've updated this documentation with the definitive quick start guide for running a STEEM exchange node, with this recommended configuration.

View the exchange quickstart guide on GitHub here.

Running an exchange node from this guide is as simple as four steps. First make sure you meet the hardware requirements and then build the docker image, create two directories for storing blockchain and wallet data, and then run.

Although the instructions are technical, anyone with basic system administration skills should be able to follow and to execute the guide quickly and easily. The quick start guide linked above is available in the steem GitHub repository.

Using this method is secure because this software runs in a container segregated from the rest of your system. And, there's no risk of misplacing key data for the CLI wallet because you can keep it outside of the docker volume in a persistent area of your filesystem if you wish.

To make the process even more seamless, we've made a quick video tutorial (8 minutes) that follows these instructions step-by-step:

To Exchanges: Update Your STEEM Code Today!

We released a new version of STEEM today (0.19.2) that includes some optimizations to the STEEM peer-to-peer code along with this updated documentation. We recommend that all exchanges update their nodes and start using this release immediately, preferably according to the quick start guide.

Seriously @poloniex.

lol.... I am also Tweeting this to them and tagging them on twitter.. 100%.. Also applied Steem to be voted in for next coin to be added to C-CEX exchange

@poloniex its been 2 months since you disabled steem however for the past 2 weeks you have isted the highest price on the internet for it, but no one can buy or sell at that price as you have had the trading disabled! Rant over... @poloniex follow this ;)

Assuming they care to listen 😡

your post is very nice, full pack of knowledge and very attractive :-)

Good devs keep it up!

👏

Greattt

Awesome good to see developments, the platform / currency is growing!

@ned @dan @steemitdev great job guys keep it going!

Supercool! I upgraded my seednode it worked like a charm! Compilation is not working so I'm using docker till @timcliff finds a solution.

Great post thank you so much for this awesome platform
steemit now is more then social network for me steemit is a way of life!
thanks @dan and @ned and steemitdev for all efforts:)

lets say somebody meets the hardware criteria and runs the node. What is the ROI after a month?

There is no ROI.

RPC nodes do not pay you.

Doggy doesnt seem like he care how you think about him or he is not too thrilled of the fuckery . Either way i love it.

Thanks for being good division. a project need to be regularly updates. nice work Team Steemit
