Today's video I will walkthrough the setup and installation process of getting a Steem consensus witness node (MIRA enabled) up and running on an Ubuntu 18.04 server. I will be showing the full process of getting steemd running as well as broadcasting your intention to be a Steem witness.

Thanks for sharing this! How long doest the video stay on dtube for? Could you upload this to 3Speak as well please? @untersatz curate 2
@OneLoveDTube operates as an indefinite file hosting service. Double posting the same content is SPAM!
Thanks for the heads up. Wasn't condoning spam of course...just wanted to have this on my watch list for down the track. !ENGAGE 25
Well never fear OneLove is here 😉
@d00k13 you have received
25 ENGAGEfrom @contrabourdon!View and trade the tokens on Steem Engine.
They are playable indefinitely as I am hosting the videos myself, and they play directly from OneLoveIPFS gateway that I operate myself.
Uploading this to 3speak means double posting, which constitutes as a form of abuse on the Steem blockchain.
For some reason, I thought dtube videos were only available for a certain period of time.
That is true for videos uploaded to the clusters run by DTube team. However anyone can host the videos on IPFS themselves and have them playable indefinitely.

Excellent my friend, this will come in handy for me though not certain I’ll be able to run a full node or not yet 🙌
Looks Like with the constant upsets on smoke I will be looking at upgrading sooner than later... can’t play and learn the scripts if I can’t access the front end 😅
My MIRA + Hivemind + Jussi setup in one server is only consuming 23 GB of RAM total. The entire RocksDB chain state plus Hivemind consumes about 800 GB of disk space combined.
Therefore if you have 32GB of RAM, 1.5 TB SSD and a decent multicore CPU you're good to spin up a full node that will last for more than 1 year 😉
