πŸš„ Setup and run a Full Node

πŸ₯‘ Full Node​

A full node prunes historical states: all finalized blocks' states older than a configurable number except the genesis block's state. This is 256 blocks from the last finalized one by default. A pruned node this way requires much less space than an archive node.

Configuration​

  • --base-path <PATH> (e.g /opt/manta/lib)
  • --chain manta

Example Command​

./manta --base-path /opt/manta/lib --chain manta
