Jumping Monkey

Step 1: Install Docker

First, install Docker on your system (Ubuntu recommended). Visit docker.com for instructions. 🐳

Step 2: Run the Bananode Container

Use this command: sudo docker run --restart unless-stopped -d -p 7072:7072/udp -p 7072:7072 -p [::1]:7074:7074/udp -p [::1]:7074:7074 -v /path/to/data:/BananoData --name bananode bananocoin/banano:latest Replace /path/to/data with your storage path. 🚀

Step 3: Manage Your Node

Stop: sudo docker stop bananode
Start: sudo docker start bananode
Check status via explorer or API. Contribute to the potassium-powered network! 🌿

Pro Tip

For advanced setups, check the Banano Wiki or Reddit for RAM-based nodes or custom configs. Have fun decentralizing! 🍌
