+## Full-Node Setup
+- Install useful packages 
+```
+sudo apt update 
+sudo apt install make clang pkg-config libssl-dev build-essential git jq ncdu bsdmainutils -y < "/dev/null"
+```
+- Install go language
+```
+wget -O go1.17.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz https://golang.org/dl/go1.17.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz
+rm -rf /usr/local/go && tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.17.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz && rm go1.17.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz
+echo 'export GOROOT=/usr/local/go' >> $HOME/.bash_profile
+echo 'export GOPATH=$HOME/go' >> $HOME/.bash_profile
+echo 'export GO111MODULE=on' >> $HOME/.bash_profile
+echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin:$HOME/go/bin' >> $HOME/.bash_profile && . $HOME/.bash_profile
+```
+You can check your installation by running `go version`.  
+It should return `go version go1.17.1 linux/amd64`
+
+- Download Bitsong binary
+```
+git clone https://github.com/bitsongofficial/go-bitsong.git
+```
+- Move to go-bitsong directory, checkout in v0.8.0 branch then install the binary
+```
+cd go-bitsong/
+git checkout v0.8.0
+make install
+```
+- Init your node and get the correct genesis.json file
+```
+bitsongd init YOUR-MONIKER --chain-id bitsong-2b
+wget https://github.com/bitsongofficial/networks/raw/master/bitsong-2b/genesis.json -O ~/.bitsongd/config/genesis.json
+```
+- Fill right persistent peers
+```
+persistent_peers="[email protected]:26656,[email protected]:26656,[email protected]:26656,[email protected]:26656,[email protected]:15631,[email protected]:26656,[email protected]:26656,[email protected]:26656,[email protected]:26656,[email protected]:36656"
+sed -i.bak -e "s/^persistent_peers = \"\"/persistent_peers = \"$persistent_peers\"/" $HOME/.bitsongd/config/config.toml
+```
+- Fill right seeds
+```
+seeds="[email protected]:26656,[email protected]:26656"
+sed -i.bak -e "s/^seeds = \"\"/seeds = \"$seeds\"/" $HOME/.bitsongd/config/config.toml
+```
+- Start your node
+```
+bitsongd start
+```
+## Create your validator
+Once you have your full node well settled you can create your validator. 
+- Create a wallet for your validator
+```
+bitsongd keys add WALLET-NAME
+```
+(!! Don't forget to save your mnemonic in a safe place !!)
+
+- Create your validator.   
+Your node have to be fully synchronized in order to create your validator.   
+You can check it with 
+```
+curl localhost:26657/status | grep catching_up
+```
+If this command return false then you can create your validator. Otherwise wait to be fully synchronized.   
+Finaly run create-validator command
+```
+bitsongd tx staking create-validator \ 
+--amount=100000000ubtsg \ 
+--pubkey=$(bitsongd tendermint show-validator) \ 
+--moniker="YOUR MONIKER" \ 
+--chain-id=bitsong-2b \ 
+--commission-rate="0" \ 
+--commission-max-rate="0.20" \ 
+--commission-max-change-rate="0.10" \ 
+--min-self-delegation="1" \
+--from=YOUR-WALLET
+```
+## Setup a service
+Setup a service can be very useful as your validator has to be running everytime.  
+You can setup it very easly
+```
+vi /etc/systemd/system/bitsong.service
+[Unit]
+Description=Bitsong Node
+After=network-online.target
+
+[Service]
+User=root
+ExecStart=/root/go/bin/bitsongd start 
+Restart=always
+RestartSec=3
+LimitNOFILE=4096
+```
+Then run
+```
+systemctl daemon-reload
+systemctl start bitsong
+```
+You can check your logs to monitor what happend in background by execute:
+```
+journalctl -u bitsong -f
+```
