Bitway Services

This page summarizes the Bitway mainnet services referenced by the BlockNth guides.

Core Services

Node Services

  • Full Node: Runs bitwayd and stores Bitway chain state
  • Validator Node: Participates in consensus and signs blocks
  • RPC Node: Provides Tendermint RPC, REST API, and gRPC access
  • Snapshot Node: Publishes compressed chain data for faster bootstrap

Deployment Services

Genesis and Addrbook

curl -L https://snapshots.noders.services/mainnet/bitway/genesis.json -o ~/.bitwayd/config/genesis.json
curl -L https://snapshots.noders.services/mainnet/bitway/addrbook.json -o ~/.bitwayd/config/addrbook.json

Snapshot

Noders publishes Bitway snapshots under:

https://snapshots.noders.services/mainnet/bitway/

Snapshot archive names change over time. Confirm the latest filename before restoring production data.

State Sync

Use the Noders state sync page for live trust height and trust hash values:

https://noders.services/mainnet/bitway/statesync/

Monitoring

Bitway nodes expose standard Cosmos and CometBFT metrics when Prometheus is enabled in config.toml.

Metric SourceDefault Port

Application gRPC9090
REST API1317

Operator Checklist

  1. Build bitwayd from the pinned v2.0.1 release.
  2. Initialize with bitway-1.
  3. Download mainnet genesis and addrbook from the mainnet/bitway snapshot path.
  4. Set Noders seed and peer or use your own trusted peers.
  5. Configure pruning, minimum gas price, and Prometheus.
  6. Run the node under systemd, preferably through Cosmovisor.

Support

tip

Use public endpoints for testing and diagnostics. For production apps and validators, run dedicated RPC infrastructure and monitoring.
