Prerequisites

Early access: You're on the Tashi Alphanet, a public testing phase. Real $TASHI is not involved, and all features are subject to change or reset.

  • Solana devnet account containing at least 0.1 SOL

    • Use the Solana Faucet to request a free airdrop of SOL to your wallet address on devnet.

  • Browser-based wallet extension implementing the Solana Wallet Standard

    • Phantom wallet was used to test these steps

    • Set your wallet to use Solana's devnet.

  • A supported 64-bit operating system (see below)

  • An Internet connection with a stable IP address

  • Recommended: set up port-forwarding for UDP port 39065

The following system specifications are recommendations, not hard minimums.

The worker node can function on systems with fewer resources, but its functionality may be limited.

These are the platforms we've chosen to support for the Alpha release. Support for more platforms and processor architectures will be added in the future.

If you're interested in running worker nodes but we don't currently support your platform, we'd love to talk about it. Join our Discord and let's chat.
