Home hosted dedicated hardware (bare metal)

It's important to be cautious of scammers who may try to take advantage of you. Only seek help through official channels such as this Wiki and the Flux Helpdesk to avoid fraudulent activities. Unofficial help can be obtained at your own risk on our Discord Server.

Operating a Flux Node from home is a recommended option as it not only eliminates the cost of renting a server but also provides complete control over the hardware and network setup. It contributes to scaling up the web3 cloud infrastructure, which is the very purpose of the Flux Network!

A bare metal server is a computer used to host a Flux Node via your home internet. It provides access to the full performance of the hardware and allows for the installation of a hypervisor (more on that later), which can enable the operation of up to 8 Flux Nodes on the same hardware if you decide running one node is not enough!

Make sure your hardware and internet speeds meet the minimum requirements for a FluxNode by referring to the full requirements available on our website here
