Running a Sei RPC node

A full Sei node is a fundamental building block of the Sei Blockchain. It consists of a local copy of the blockchain, including its history and state. Running a full node is essential for participating in network operations like validating transactions, joining consensus, and broadcasting events to other network participants.

Quick start

There is a setup script that runs a lot of the basic setup to easily get you started running an RPC node. If you are an advanced user, please see Node Configurations.

You can use this startup script:
