Detailed guide to installing LND and Bitcoind on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS for Mainnet

Intro

This guide is specific to getting LND 0.5-beta and Bitcoind running on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS for mainnet. It is aging rapidly and includes steps not necessary on newer versions of LND. As of April 2021 it is very out of date for bitcoind. As of December 2021 it is outdated for LND too.

Original installation guide:

This guide is broken into the following sections:

  • Install bitcoind and set to start automatically
  • Install development tools and dependancies

I have been an aggressive Kubernetes evangelist over the last few years. It has been the hammer with which I have approached almost all my deployments, and the one tool I have mentioned (shoved down clients throats) in almost all my foremost communications with clients, and it was my go to choice when I was mocking my first startup (saharacluster.com).

A few weeks ago Docker 1.13 was released and I was tasked with replicating a client's Kubernetes deployment on Swarm, more specifically testing running compose on Swarm.

And it was a dream!

All our apps were already dockerised and all I had to do was make a few modificatons to an existing compose file that I had used for testing before prior said deployment on Kubernetes.

And, with the ease with which I was able to expose our endpoints, manage volumes, handle networking, deploy and tear down the setup. I in all honesty see no reason to not use Swarm. No mission-critical feature, or incredibly convenient really nice to have feature in Kubernetes that I'm go

# Install via `conda` directly.

# all dependencies will fail to install.
