Bee Network Node v0.1.0 - Linux testnet preview

Run a Bee Network observation node on the CKB Pudge testnet. It serves small AI-agent observation tasks (HTTP GET, DNS, TLS checks), earns beats, and gets paid in testnet CKB every epoch - automatically.

Download

  • AppImage (any Linux, no install): BeeNetworkNode_0.1.0_amd64.AppImage
  • Debian / Ubuntu: bee-network-node_0.1.0_amd64.deb

Run

AppImage:

chmod +x BeeNetworkNode_0.1.0_amd64.AppImage
./BeeNetworkNode_0.1.0_amd64.AppImage

Debian/Ubuntu:

sudo apt install ./bee-network-node_0.1.0_amd64.deb
bee-node

Then open the app. It generates a testnet wallet, connects to the hosted orchestrator, and starts serving tasks. Your node is added to the on-chain registry automatically, and rewards accrue as shares you claim from the dashboard.

Requirements

  • A desktop Linux session (GTK + WebKitGTK 4.1). The .deb pulls in the required libraries.
  • Internet access (testnet CKB RPC + the hosted orchestrator).

Notes

  • Testnet only - all CKB here is valueless.
  • You need no funds and no keys to participate.
  • Talks to the hosted backend at orchestrator-production-ec0d.up.railway.app.
