Bitcoin full node with docker
A simple way to deploy your own node with Docker!
About the project
Deploy a dockerized node accessible from your local network (LAN). Electrs will be available for connecting any Electrum-compatible wallet and BTC Explorer will allow blockchain exploration.
The node will participate in the Bitcoin network by exchanging blocks with other nodes via Tor. Optionally, it can also be made accessible from anywhere through Tor.
The following services are deployed:
| Service | Version | Base image | Size |

| Tor | 0.4.8.12 | debian:stable-slim | 83.2 MB |
| Bitcoin core | 27.1 | debian:stable-slim | 79.7 MB |
| Electrs | 0.10.5 | debian:stable-slim | 82.5 MB |
| Bitcoin RPC Explorer | 3.4.0 | node:22-slim | 374 MB |
