Minimum System Requirements

TACo nodes are very light and can be run inexpensively on a remote instance or local machine. Specs similar to (or greater) than the following will suffice:

  • Debian or Ubuntu (recommended distributions)

  • 20GB storage

  • 4GB RAM

  • x86 architecture

  • Static IP address

  • Exposed TCP port 9151

TACo can be run on cloud infrastructure. For example, a Digital Ocean 4GB Basic Droplet satisfies the requirements listed above.

Additionally, the operator account (i.e. not the provider) must be funded with at least 15 POL (Polygon POS) to connect to the Threshold Network and participate in DKG initialization rituals. Transfer these funds before running your node.
