Host a Bittensor Full Node on the Flux Cloud

Step 1: Installing your Bittensor Full Node via the Flux Cloud Marketplace

  • We first need to head over to https://home.runonflux.io/
  • Once there, click on the desired option under “Log In” to sign in. We support Zel ID, accessible through the Zelcore wallet, as well as MetaMask or any wallet that has WalletConnect support.
  • Now that you have been authenticated, go to “Marketplace” on the left-hand menu. Once there, look for the BittensorFN application — You will find them under the ‘Blockchain’ category.
  • You will see something remarkable in this. Just click “Start Launching Marketplace App.”
  • Next, you will see a screen like this:
  • You can click “Next” or copy the Registration Message if you want to sign the message manually using your Zel ID App, and then click “Next.”
  • Here, you can click the fingerprint button to sign the request for the application. If you have done this manually, paste the signed message from the earlier step onto your Zel ID.
  • You will now see the monthly cost for your application. Click on “Register Flux App.”
  • You will be given payment information in FLUX. Payment is made through the FLUX blockchain using FLUX coins.
  • You’re done! We now need to wait for your Bittensor Full Node to be spawned on an available FluxNode, which usually takes around 10–30 minutes. It will then start syncing the full node.

Step2: Finding out your IP address of your Bittensor Full Node

  • When logged in via your Zel ID you can head over to https://home.runonflux.io/apps/globalapps and to the “My Apps” Tab. Here you will be able to Manage and visit your new Full Node deployment that you have just done. Click on the arrow pointing down to see your application specifications and the IPs running it.
  • As you can see, your Bittensor Full Node is redundant, which means it is always running on a minimum of three instances simultaneously. That means you can use each individual IP as an endpoint. Click on “Visit App” to get to its http endpoint. Examples:

http://149.50.102.103:9944/
http://135.26.101.181:9944/
http://95.216.80.106:9944/

You can check the logs of the individual IPs to ensure that the Node is working properly.

  1. Visit one IP by clicking on “Visit FluxNode”
  2. Log in with your Zel ID
  3. Navigate to “Apps”, “Local Apps”, “My Local Apps”
  4. Click “Manage”, “Manage App”, “Log File”
  • You should see something similar like this (The Node is syncing):
