Requirements

• Docker >= 20.10.12
• docker compose >= 2.2.2
• git
• jq binary
• sed
• Host with a minimum of:
  • 4GB memory
  • 1 Vcpu (2 Vcpu is recommended)
  • 150GB storage (250GB or more if downloading a chainstate archive)

MacOS with an M1 processor is NOT recommended for this repo

⚠️ The way Docker for Mac on an M1 (Arm) chip is designed makes the I/O incredibly slow, and blockchains are very heavy on I/O.
This only seems to affect MacOS, other Arm based systems like Raspberry Pi seem to work fine.
