  2. Quick Start

Run a Parex Chain Node

Running your own Parex Chain node provides control and privacy but demands more technical skill and resources.

This page gives you the essential parameters to launch your node.

If you are ready to go straight into code mode, here is the gist of it:

  • #Download mainnet.tar.gz

wget https://github.com/ParexChain/Mainnet_PEP20/raw/main/mainnet.tar.gz
  • #extract files

tar zxvf mainnet.tar.gz
  • #create datadir

mkdir geth_data
  • #init genesis.json

./geth --datadir geth_data init genesis.json
  • #run node

./geth  \
--config ./config.toml  \
--datadir ./geth_data  \
--cache 16000  \
--rpc.allow-unprotected-txs  \
--txlookuplimit 0  \
--http.api=eth,net,web3,personal \
--syncmode full
