Full Bitcoin Node
This is a very simple bitcoin node, you will need a volume to /app/data on launch.
Build/Run
docker build -t bitcoin .
docker run -d --restart always --name bitcoin -p 8333:8333 -p 8332:8332 -v /var/local/bitcoin:/app/data bitcoin
Feeling Lazy?
Just run my published version hosted on AWS:
docker run -d --restart always --name bitcoin -p 8333:8333 -p 8332:8332 -v /var/local/bitcoin:/app/data public.ecr.aws/u8i9m6d0/bitcoin:latest
Notes
Apparently bitcoin's servers are pretty slow so I put the tar in this repo, don't trust me or anyone. Check the sha yourself.
Shas can be found: https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.21.0/SHA256SUMS.asc
sha256sum bitcoin-0.21.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz should return da7766775e3f9c98d7a9145429f2be8297c2672fe5b118fd3dc2411fb48e0032 for this version.
DO NOT OPEN PORT 8332 TO THE WORLD
If you want to joint the world and be a happy little bitcoin node you should open port forwarding to 8333, it's fine to bind 8332 with the above run command but anyone on your local network will be able to run RPC commands
