Choose how you run 5TRAT.

5TRAT is the coin and public blockchain. 5tratSmack is one self-contained application for running its node, wallet, solo pool, explorer and atomic-trade client. The 5tratumOS route is simplest; Linux and Proxmox use the same public runtime.

RECOMMENDED

5tratumOS

Install from the community App Store, keep updates and fleet integration in one place, then point your miners at the local Stratum endpoint.

Download the latest full image

AMD64 + ARM64

Linux

The verified installer adds Docker when required, selects the correct architecture and starts the complete application.

Install on Linux

UNPRIVILEGED LXC

Proxmox

The helper creates a dedicated Debian guest. It does not install the blockchain or Docker on the Proxmox root.

FULL INSTALLATION GUIDE

From empty machine to a live 5TRAT node.

Both routes install the complete 5tratSmack stack: validating node, encrypted wallet, solo pool, explorer and atomic-trade client. Persistent data survives normal application updates.

Prepare the host

Use a 64-bit AMD, Intel or ARM Linux machine. Debian 12/13 and Ubuntu 24.04 are the most thoroughly tested. Allow at least 80 GiB of storage; 4 CPU cores and 8 GiB memory are sensible starting points.

Run the verified installer

The command downloads the installer and checksum from one immutable release, verifies it, installs Docker when required and selects the correct precompiled architecture.

Open and secure the wallet

Open http://HOST_IP:3015, wait for blocks and headers to synchronize, create or restore the wallet, then download and test an encrypted backup before mining.

Connect miners

Use stratum+tcp://HOST_IP:57557. Check the payout address in 5tratSmack before allowing the first share through.

RUN ON THE LINUX HOST

(
  set -Eeuo pipefail
  workdir="$(mktemp -d)"
  trap 'rm -rf "$workdir"' EXIT
  cd "$workdir"
  base=https://github.com/WillItMod/5tratSmack/releases/download/v0.10.20-linux
  curl -fSLO "$base/install.sh"
  curl -fSLO "$base/install.sh.sha256"
  sha256sum -c install.sh.sha256
  sudo bash install.sh --release-tag v0.10.20-linux --platform linux

WEB APP3015

Keep on the trusted LAN.

MINER STRATUM57557

Trusted LAN miners only.

CHAIN P2P57555

The only optional WAN forward.

WALLET RPC57576

Never expose or forward.

Inbound port forwarding is optional.

Every installation synchronizes and validates through outbound peers. Forward TCP 57555 only if this machine should accept inbound chain peers. Never forward the web app, Stratum or wallet RPC as part of public node sharing.

Back up before updating.

Updates preserve named data volumes, but an encrypted wallet backup is still the only sensible recovery plan. Verify its password and keep a copy away from the node.
