Host your own ALEPHIUM Node on Decentralized Web 3.0 (FLUX!) - TutorialsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #alephium • 2 years ago

Hi all,

After a long time, I am back!
In the meantime, busy with a new house! And still some nodes.
Running a FLUX node at home (I shall write more about this one in another post).

This is not the first app I deployed on FLUX, also been running a PRESEARCH node on FLUX (that is another point I want to write about, I'll be busy :)).

But first things first! Running an ALEPHIUM on a Decentralized network that you can pay with crypto how cool sound that!

Things you already need in place for this tutorial:

  • Zelcore wallet (recommended always!) opened
  • Some FLUX to pay the node
  • 5-10 minutes time

I am using the latest Zelcore wallet and a Windows 10 PC with the Edge browser.

So, grab a drink and we are going to do it!

  1. Open a new tab in the browser and navigate to: https://home.runonflux.io/
    1. Home run on Flux.PNG
  2. Click on the ZelID fingerprint logo, the browser asks to open the Zelcore wallet: click on open
    2. open Zelcore wallet.PNG
  3. Go to the Zelcore wallet (that is already open) and you see the sign in message, sign this message to sign in

  4. Now that you are signed in you can use the marketplace! Go to marketplace -> Crypto -> Scroll till you see the AlephiumNode.

  7. Sign the app, click on the Zelcore fingerprint. The same pop-up as before can open that it wants to launch Zelcore. Click on open and after that go to your Zelcore Wallet.
    8. Sign the app.PNG
  8. Sign the message. Don't forget to copy the signature it gives you after sign-in. Click on the signature to copy it!

  10. Register the app. You can click on register the app.
    14. Register done.PNG
  11. Send Payment. The easiest way to pay is using ZelID again and after all the use before we know how this works :). Click on the fingerprint. The open Zelcore message is there and choose open and go to Zelcore.
    Here you see the payment for one-month Alephium Node on the FLUX network.

  12. Send the FLUX. This is the transaction to pay for the node, you only have to click on Send.
    18. Send Flux.PNG
  13. When the payment is done the last Window doesn't disappear automatic. You can just close it.
    19. Finish.PNG
  14. It gives you a warning if you have paid the node.
    20. Finish and paid.PNG
  15. Now we can look up the new fresh Alephium Node. Go on the https://home.runonflux.io/ webpage to Apps -> Global Apps -> My Apps.
    21. Node running!.PNG

It can take a few minutes but after that you the app with all the IP addresses from the nodes. Yes, I said addresses you get multiple nodes for the same price so that always a node is running for you.
Now you have node running to support the Alephium network on a decentralized Web 3.0 environment!

Let me know if you have questions about this tutorial or when you get stuck on some step.
