Download the binaries, extract to the bin folder

Binaries’ names intersect with the bitcoin names. So we are going to rename them.

wget https://github.com/bitcoin-cash-node/bitcoin-cash-node/releases/download/v27.1.0/bitcoin-cash-node-27.1.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz
tar -xzvf bitcoin-cash-node-27.1.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz

mv bitcoin-cash-node-27.1.0/bin/bitcoind ~/bin/bcashd
mv bitcoin-cash-node-27.1.0/bin/bitcoin-cli ~/bin/bcash-cli
mv bitcoin-cash-node-27.1.0/bin/bitcoin-tx ~/bin/bcash-tx

rm -rf bitcoin-cash-node-27.1.0 bitcoin-cash-node-27.1.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz

Create home dir for bitcoin-cash

mkdir ~/.bitcoin-cash

Initialize configuration file at ~/.bitcoin-cash/bitcoin-cash.conf

regtest=1

Set your own rpcuser, rpcpassword and datadir, define addresses of all other nodes in addnode fields.

Start the node

We need to specify path ot config, because Bitcoin-Cash uses the same defaults as Bitcoin

bcashd -conf=$BCASH_HOME/bitcoin-cash.conf

Verify the node is working

bcash-cli -conf=$BCASH_HOME/bitcoin-cash.conf getblockcount
