Glacier Node

This guide walks you through setting up a Glacier Node.

System Requirements

• CPU: 2 Cores
• RAM: 4 GB

Preparation Before Installing Node

1. Create a new wallet.

2. Add RPC for opBNB Testnet:

   • Chainlist

3. Claim BNB Testnet (to claim, you must have 0.002 BNB on the mainnet):

   • BNB Chain Testnet Faucet
   • BSC Testnet BNB Faucet (need to hold BNB on the mainnet).

4. Swap/bridge from BNB Testnet to opBNB:

   • opBNB Testnet Bridge

Install Node Glacier on Ubuntu-Linux

1. Update packages and install git, wget, and tmux:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install git wget tmux -y

2. Create a folder for Glacier and download the node files:

mkdir glacier && cd glacier && wget https://github.com/Glacier-Labs/node-bootstrap/releases/download/v0.0.2-beta/verifier_linux_amd64 && wget https://glacier-labs.github.io/node-bootstrap/config.yaml

3. Edit the config.yaml file:

nano config.yaml

4. Set file permissions:

chmod +x ./verifier_linux_amd64

5. Create a tmux session:

tmux new -s glacier

6. Run the Node:

./verifier_linux_amd64

7. Detach from tmux:

   • Press Ctrl, hold it, press b, release both, then press d.

8. Reattach to tmux (if you want to check if the node is running):

tmux attach -t glacier

Check Node Status

• DONE (check the dashboard, wait for the node to run for about 1 hour):
  • Node Status
