Setup
Glob node setup is not publicly available yet. This page will be updated with instructions once the first open testnet is launched.
🚧 Node setup is not publicly available yet.
The Glob network is currently in the MVP phase and undergoing internal testing.
Public instructions will be released along with the first open testnet or early operator program.
What’s Coming
Here's what you can expect in the setup process once it’s available:
- ✅
globd
binary (Go-based) - ✅ Celestia light node bootstrapping (auto-managed)
- ✅ Config file:
config.yaml
- ✅ Port binding: gRPC + WebSocket
- ✅ Built-in metrics endpoint (Prometheus-compatible)
- ✅ Docker support (eventually)
Can I prepare ahead?
If you want to be ready when setup is released:
- Make sure you have a Linux-based VPS (min. 2 vCPU / 2GB RAM / SSD)
- Familiarity with:
tmux
orsystemd
- Docker / CLI operations
- P2P or light client concepts (optional but useful)

Internal MVP Status
Right now, the Glob MVP is being tested with a small internal set of nodes to validate:
- Blob propagation
- Trie syncing
- Peer gossip layer
- Celestia light node integration
- StageBuffer + commitment handling
Setup docs will be updated as soon as the first open testnet becomes available.
