Download binary files

cd $HOME 
mkdir -p go/bin/
git clone https://github.com/realiotech/realio-network.git
cd realio-network
git checkout v1.5.0

make install

realio-networkd version --long | grep -e commit -e version
# version: 1.4.0

We initialize the node to create the necessary configuration files

realio-networkd init <YOUR_MONIKER_NAME> --chain-id realionetwork_3301-1

Download Genesis

wget -O $HOME/.realio-network/config/genesis.json "https://server-1.stavr.tech/Mainnet/Realio/genesis.json"

At this stage, we can download the address book

wget -O $HOME/.realio-network/config/addrbook.json "https://server-1.stavr.tech/Mainnet/Realio/addrbook.json"

Set up node configuration

# Set node configuration

Set up pruning
