The end goal

You will publicly offer the following services, where xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv is your server IP address.

  • xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv:37175- clearnet P2P service (for other nodes)
  • xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv:37176 – clearnet RPC service (for wallets)

Why run this specific setup?

You will be able to connect your desktop and mobile Dinastycoin wallets to your own trusted Dinastycoin node, in a secure and private way over Tor.

Running as a systemd service will allow your node to always remain synced, as opposed to intermittently running node.

Public RPC service – The public-node config option will broadcast your RPC port to your peers, providing a service for anyone to use your node to connect their wallets to the Monero network. This is useful to users who don’t run their own nodes. You may enable it by removing the # from #public-node in the config.Public RPC may be resource intensive

Assumptions

You possess:

  • Basic understanding of Linux administration
  • Root access to a Linux server
  • Recommended 4 GB+ RAM
  • Recommended available SSD storage of
    • 625.0 GiB+ for the full node
    • 250.0 GiB+ for the pruned

Current blockchain size as of 2026-05.01

The current blockchain sizes are approximately:
Full node: 4 GiB
Pruned node: 3 GiB

Some commands assume Ubuntu but you will easily translate them to your distribution.

Install Dinastycoin

  1. Create Dinastycoin user and group:
useradd --system Dinastycoin

2, Create Dianstycoin config, date and log directories:

mkdir -p /etc/dinastycoin # config
mkdir -p /var/lib/dinastycoin # blockchain
mkdir -p /var/log/dinastycoin # logs
chown dinastycoin:dinastycoin /etc/dinastycoin 
chown dinastycoin:dinastycoin  /var/lib/dinastycoin 
chown dinastycoin:dinastycoin  /var/log/dinastycoin

Feel free to adjust above to your preferred conventions, just remember to adjust the paths in the systemd and monerod config files accordingly.

3. Downloads and verify the archive.

4. Extract the binaries (adjust filename if necessary):

tar -xvf dinastycoin-linux-x64-tesla369.zip
rm dinastycoin-linux-x64-tesla369.zip

5. Move binaries to /usr/local/bin/:

Systemd

  1. Create /etc/systemd/system/monerod.service as shown below.
# /etc/systemd/system/monerod.service

[Unit]
Description=Dinastycoin Daemon
After=network-online.target
Requires=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/Dinastycoind --config-file /etc/Dinastycoin/Dinastycoind.conf --non-interactive

Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=30

User=Dinastycoin
Group=Dinastycoin

StandardOutput=journal
StandardError=journal

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

2. Enable the monerod service:

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable dinastycoind
systemctl restart dinastycoind

3. Verify it is up

systemctl status dinastycoind

4. Verify it is working as intended:

tail -n100 /var/log/dinastycoin/dinastycoin.log

Open firewall ports

f you use a firewall (and you should), open 37176 and 37175 ports for incoming TCP connections. These are for the incoming clearnet connections, P2P and RPC respectively.

You do not need to open any ports for Tor.

For example, for popular ufw firewall, that would be:

ufw allow 37176/tcp
ufw allow 37175/tcp

To verify, use ufw status. The output should be similar to the following (the 22 being default SSH port, unrelated to Dinastycoin):

To                         Action      From
--                         ------      ----
22/tcp                     LIMIT       Anywhere
37176/tcp                  ALLOW       Anywhere
37175/tcp                  ALLOW       Anywhere
22/tcp (v6)                LIMIT       Anywhere (v6)
37176/tcp (v6)             ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)
37175/tcp (v6)             ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)
