Using Quickstart

We recommend validators become familiar with the manual setup process, but we do have a handy quickstart script available for spinning up a full node from scratch.

The quickstart script automates the following steps:

1. Installs system dependencies
2. Downloads and installs the regen binary
3. Initializes the node configuration and genesis file
4. Configures persistent peers
5. Starts the node

This covers the steps in Initial Setup, Install Regen, and Initialize Node.

For Regen Mainnet:

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/regen-network/mainnet/blob/main/scripts/mainnet-val-setup.sh)

After the script completes, the node will begin syncing with the network. You can then proceed to Create a Validator once the node is fully synced.
