[Home](https://servprivate.com/) / [Blockchain Node Hosting](https://servprivate.com/node-hosting) / Monero Node Hosting The privacy coin deserves a private node # Monero Node Hosting Using someone else's Monero node leaks your wallet's queries to strangers. Run monerod on no-logs offshore hardware, connect your wallets over Tor or SSH, and stop outsourcing the last metre of Monero's privacy. [View recommended servers](#plans) [All node types](https://servprivate.com/node-hosting) #### Node requirements at a glance - Client software: **monerod 0.18.x** - Chain size: **≈ 270 GB** - Recommended RAM: **4–8 GB** - Recommended storage: **400 GB+ NVMe** - Initial sync: **12–48 h** - P2P port: **18080 P2P · 18081 RPC** No KYC Crypto Only No Logs Unlimited bandwidth Full Root NVMe SSD Blockchain infrastructure ## Why Monero users run their own node Monero's cryptography hides amounts and parties on-chain — but the node your wallet talks to still sees your IP, your refresh height and which outputs you ask about. Public remote nodes are run by volunteers, and occasionally by adversaries. Your own monerod closes that gap: the wallet scans against hardware you rent anonymously, transactions broadcast through Tor, and the chain data sits in a jurisdiction that doesn't do fishing expeditions. At ~270 GB it's the most affordable serious node on this site. 01 ### Wallet privacy, completed Your seed never leaves your device — but your queries do. A personal node means nobody correlates your IP with your output requests. 02 ### Tor broadcast built in monerod pushes outgoing transactions through Tor natively (tx-proxy). Your transactions enter the network with no origin IP. 03 ### Light enough for a VPS 270 GB full, ~100 GB pruned: VPS-L handles a pruned node, VPS-PRO a full public one. XMR-paid, naturally. 04 ### Serve the network, quietly Open the restricted RPC and your box helps mobile users as a public remote node — or keep it firewalled to you alone.

Commands are copy-paste ready for Ubuntu 24.04 — adapt paths if you run Debian or Rocky. - 1 ### Order the box VPS-PRO in [Switzerland](https://servprivate.com/vps/switzerland) or [Iceland](https://servprivate.com/vps/iceland) fits Monero's ethos; Moldova keeps it cheapest. - 2 ### Harden & install Tor Key-only SSH, firewall open on 18080 (P2P) and optionally 18089 (restricted RPC), install Tor for the transaction proxy. apt update && apt install -y tor systemctl enable --now tor - 3 ### Install monerod Download the CLI bundle from getmonero.org, verify the signed hashes, install monerod. wget https://downloads.getmonero.org/cli/linux64 -O monero.tar.bz2 tar xjf monero.tar.bz2 && install -m 0755 monero-x86_64-linux-gnu-*/monerod /usr/local/bin/ - 4 ### Configure Bind the restricted RPC, route transaction broadcast through Tor with tx-proxy, optionally enable pruning. Start detached and let it sync (12–48 h). # ~/.bitmonero/bitmonero.conf p2p-bind-ip=0.0.0.0 rpc-restricted-bind-ip=0.0.0.0 rpc-restricted-bind-port=18089 tx-proxy=tor,127.0.0.1:9050,10 # broadcast txs over Tor - 5 ### Point your wallets at it Feather, Monerujo (over Tor), Cake or the GUI: set your node — preferably its onion address — as the remote node and refresh privately from then on. monerod --detach monerod status ## Monero node sizing In mid-2026 the raw blockchain is ~270 GB and grows ~35 GB a year; pruning cuts storage to roughly a third while keeping full validation. RAM: monerod is comfortable at 4–8 GB. CPU barely matters after sync. What matters is disk latency (the LMDB database loves NVMe) and honest bandwidth: a public remote node serving mobile wallets pushes hundreds of GB monthly, which is why unmetered matters even for the smallest node on this site. ## Private node or public remote node? Firewalled to your own IPs (or Tor-only), the node is a pure personal backend: nobody knows it exists. Open the restricted RPC on 18089 and you're providing a public good — strangers' wallets refresh against you, seeing only what the restricted API allows. Both modes run on the same server; the difference is one firewall rule. If you serve the public, Iceland and Switzerland put your node under privacy-respecting law. ## Tor, I2P and broadcast privacy The tx-proxy flag sends your outgoing transactions through Tor or I2P, so the origin IP of a broadcast can't be tied to your server — let alone to you. Inbound, an onion service lets your mobile wallet reach the node without touching clearnet. Combined with an anonymously rented server there is no name anywhere in the chain: token → XMR payment → datacenter IP → Tor circuit. ## p2pool and earning on the same box A node is the prerequisite for p2pool — decentralized mining without trusting a pool operator. The spare cores on VPS-PRO or DS-1 run the p2pool software comfortably (real hashrate comes from your miners elsewhere). Plenty of operators run node + p2pool and pay the hosting from mining income — in XMR, on an XMR-paid server. Full circle. FAQ ## Monero node hosting FAQ ### 01 How big is the Monero blockchain and how fast does it grow? About 270 GB unpruned in mid-2026, growing ~35 GB a year. A pruned node holds ~100 GB. Both validate fully — pruning only drops old data that other nodes can serve. ### 02 Pruned or full node? Pruned for a personal wallet backend — identical security for you. Full if you want to serve historical blocks or run analysis. VPS-L handles pruned; VPS-PRO takes the full chain with headroom. ### 03 Can my phone wallet use my node? Yes — Monerujo and Cake accept custom remote nodes, ideally your node's onion address (Monerujo pairs with Orbot natively). Refreshes stop leaking your IP to random public nodes. ### 04 Is it legal to host a Monero node? Yes, in all our jurisdictions: a node relays a public network's data and holds no customer funds. Privacy coins face exchange delistings, not node prohibitions. ### 05 Should I open my node to the public? If you have the bandwidth (we do), it strengthens the ecosystem — the restricted RPC is designed for exactly that exposure. Rate-limit with the built-in flags, keep the unrestricted RPC on localhost, and the risk is minimal. ### 06 Can I mine on the same server? Run the p2pool node here and point external miners at it. CPU mining itself is rarely profitable on rented hardware, and on shared VPS tiers we care about neighbours — on dedicated tiers, your cores are yours to spend.

"About 270 GB unpruned in mid-2026, growing ~35 GB a year. A pruned node holds ~100 GB. Both validate fully — pruning only drops old data that other nodes can serve." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Pruned or full node?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Pruned for a personal wallet backend — identical security for you.
