Intuitively helps you set up up a DigiByte Node with a DigiAsset Node
Almost no Linux command line experience required - the menu-driven setup is quick and easy.
Easy and Fast Menu-driven Setup
- Designed with less-technical users in mind - almost no linux command line experience required. Setup is entirely menu-driven.
- Choose to setup a Full DigiNode (DigiByte Node with DigiAsset Node) or a DigiByte Node ONLY.
- For Power Users, use launch flags to further customise your DigiNode setup (See Advanced Features).
Checks Hardware & OS Compatibility
- Automatically checks your system hardware and OS are compatible, and that there is sufficient disk space and memory.
- Checks for swap file, and helps create one on low memory devices.
- Optionally helps you create a 'digibyte' user account.
Run a DigiByte Mainnet node, a Testnet node, or both together
- Set up a DigiByte mainnet Node, a testnet Node, or better yet, a Dual Node - run both together side-by-side at the same time.
- By running a Dual Node (both Mainnet and Testnet together) you are contributing to the decentralization of the network, while also supporting developers building on DigiByte.
Automatic Software Configuration
- Automatically configures your DigiByte and DigiAssets Nodes with optimal settings.
- Creates digibyte.conf with optimal settings. Sets up system services to keep your DigiNode running 24/7, even after a reboot. Sets up RPC credentials for DigiAsset Node.
- Optionally, use UPnP to automatically setup port forwarding.
Use DigiNode Dashboard to monitor your DigiNode
DigiNode Dashboard makes it easy to monitor the status of your DigiByte and DigiAsset Nodes
DigiNode Dashboard
- Monitor your DigiNode via the command line, over SSH, to quickly check that your DigiByte and DigiAsset Nodes are running smoothly.
- DigiNode Dashboard displays node status, system usage (temperature, disk space, RAM, swap and CPU), and automatically notifies you of available software updates.
Port Tester
- Use the integrated Port Tester to quickly check that your DigiByte and DigiAsset ports are being forwarded correctly

- Enter
diginode —helpto see a list of commands you can use to manage your DigiNode
DigiNode Tools has many more powerful features to make setting up and managing a DigiNode a breeze.
Start DigiNode Setup
Raspberry Pi users should follow the instructions here.
For Ubuntu / Debian, paste this command in to the terminal:
- Ubuntu Server 64-bit is recommended. For Debian, you will need to first install sudo. See System Requirements for more info.
- It is recommended to create a new user account called 'digibyte' for your DigiNode. This will isolate your wallet in its own user acccount.
- Run the setup command as user: 'digibyte' (Do not run as root).
- Windows Terminal is recommended for Windows. iTerm2 is recommended for Mac.
- To customize your DigiNode, see Advanced Features.
