فارسیMonero node VPS
Your own node means your wallet never asks a stranger's server about your transactions.
A Monero node is a copy of the Monero blockchain that checks every transaction itself, so your wallet can use it instead of a public remote node. Bulletproof.to gives you a KVM VPS with enough NVMe for a pruned chain from €69.99 a month, paid in Monero and without ID.
What it needs
- Memory
- 4 GB RAM or more
- Disk
- 140 GB or more
- System
- Debian 13
- Smallest plan
- Carbide, €69.99 / mo
Monero asks for 4 GB of RAM or more. A pruned chain was 105 GiB in October 2026 and grows, so add extra disk as it does. A full node (265 GiB) needs a dedicated server.
Ports to open
| Port | Used for | Open to |
|---|---|---|
| 18080/tcp | Peer to peer, other nodes connect here | Everyone |
| 18089/tcp | Restricted RPC, only if you share the node with others | Everyone |
| 18081/tcp | Full RPC, for your own use only | Keep closed |
Set these in the free firewall in the panel, everything else stays closed.
Install your Monero node
1. Download monerod and compare its SHA-256 with hashes.txt on getmonero.org/downloads
wget -O monero.tar.bz2 https://downloads.getmonero.org/cli/linux64 sha256sum monero.tar.bz22. Unpack it and install the daemon
tar -xjf monero.tar.bz2 install monero-x86_64-linux-gnu-*/monerod /usr/local/bin/3. Write /etc/monero/monerod.conf for a pruned node
data-dir=/var/lib/monero prune-blockchain=1 p2p-bind-port=18080 rpc-restricted-bind-ip=0.0.0.0 rpc-restricted-bind-port=18089 confirm-external-bind=1 no-igd=14. Start it and follow the sync
mkdir -p /var/lib/monero monerod --config-file /etc/monero/monerod.conf --detach monerod status5. For a service that starts at boot, use the systemd unit from the Monero docs
Commands from the official Monero docs, checked in November 2026. The project may change them, so look there if one fails.
Why run your Monero node here
Paid in XMR
Pay for the server in Monero, from one order or from your balance. How paying in XMR works
NVMe that grows
Fast NVMe storage, plus up to 100 GB of extra disk from the panel as the chain grows.
Unlimited traffic
No monthly cap, so the node can serve other peers as well.
No KYC
Your login is a random account number. Email is optional.
Plans that fit
Monthly prices. Pay for 3 months and save 5%, or 12 months and save 15%. Upgrade to a bigger plan from the panel any time.
Questions about hosting a Monero node
Pruned or full node?
A pruned node still checks every transaction and keeps about a third of the data. It is enough for your own wallet. A full node needs a dedicated server today.
How much disk does a Monero node need?
About 105 GiB pruned and 265 GiB full in October 2026, and both keep growing.
Does my node need open ports?
Port 18080 lets other nodes connect and helps the network. Open 18089 only if you want to share your node, and keep 18081 closed.
Can I mine on it?
These plans are not sized for mining, and CPU mining on a shared host slows the neighbours down.
Do you need my ID or name?
No. You sign up with an account number, no email or ID is required, and you pay with Monero, Bitcoin, USDT or Litecoin.
Do you install it for me?
No, you get a clean server with full root access and install it yourself with the steps on this page. Support helps with the server, not with the app.
