How to run Peatio and bitcoind on Separate Servers on AWS

what do you need?

  • micro instance (for bitcoind don't create now)
  • medium instance (for peatio)
  • EBS disk with 150 GB (To download the full node) You should follow this steps here to deploy Peatio ignore the bitcoind part

create Bitcoind Server

  1. Login to AWS Dashboard
  2. head to EC2
  3. make a new micro instance and choose Ubuntu 16.04
  4. add new 150 GB disk and mount it on /dev/xvdb
  5. open SSH port to the world or your IP only if you have static IP
  6. allow port 8333 for the security group (default launch-wizard-1 )

adding EBS disk

sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/xvdb
mkdir /home/ubuntu/bitcoind

add this line to /etc/fstab

/dev/xvdb   /home/ubuntu/bitcoind    ext4    defaults    0    1

then do

sudo mount /dev/xvdb /home/ubuntu/bitcoind

Installing bitcoind Server

SSH into the Server and execute these commands

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bitcoind

Configuring bitcoind

touch ~/bitcoind/bitcoin.conf
vim ~/bitcoin/bitcoin.conf

Insert the following lines into the bitcoin.conf, and replce with your username and password.

server=1
daemon=1

# If run on the test network instead of the real bitcoin network
#testnet=1

# You must set rpcuser and rpcpassword to secure the JSON-RPC api
# Please make rpcpassword to something secure, `5gKAgrJv8CQr2CGUhjVbBFLSj29HnE6YGXvfykHJzS3k` for example.
# Listen for JSON-RPC connections on <port> (default: 8332 or testnet: 18332)
rpcuser=INVENT_A_UNIQUE_USERNAME
rpcpassword=INVENT_A_UNIQUE_PASSWORD
rpcport=9333
rpcallowip=PEATIO_SERVER_IP_HERE              
# Notify when receiving coins
walletnotify=/usr/bin/curl -d '{"type":"transaction", "hash":"%s"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST https://yourwebsite.tld/webhooks/tx
