Kaspa Node on Raspberry Pi

A low cost, low power solution for Raspberry Pi 4 Model B from nwbower.

nwbower has released a Kaspa Node in Docker for a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 8GB — arm64.

Interested in running a Kaspa Node on your Raspberry Pi 4 Model B? Using an 8GB version, you can run a node that idles around 4.5 GB of memory once synced. It is booting to Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS on a 512GB SSD.

Shout out to supertypo for the detailed readme and his x86–64 and amd64 versions: supertypo/kaspad. Some of his readme was copied but modified as appropriate here for this build image on a Pi.

Check it out here: https://hub.docker.com/r/nwbower/pi-kaspad

Special thanks to supertypo!

Also, here is a great CLI reference for setting up a Kaspa node in docker on the kaspawiki.

Kaspad release binaries are unaltered from the corresponding official version at:
