# Run full node in Linux

{% hint style="info" %}

## Why run a full node? <a href="#ca1c" id="ca1c"></a>

A fully set up node keeps track of the blockchain while the miners validate the blocks. This is required in order for the network to sync and run.

By running a **full node**, you are helping to secure the network. Best of all, running a node requires minimal hardware and can run on most modern computers/miners. Doing this, enables the wallets to sync up faster with the network itself.
