Check Your Node

Use this tool to check if your Bitcoin client is currently accepting incoming connections from other nodes. Port must be between 1024 and 65535. The check uses the same /api/v1/checknode/ endpoint documented in the public API.

Start a Bitcoin full node on your computer to help validate and relay Bitcoin blocks and transactions by running this command:

curl /install-full-node.sh | sh

Supported systems: Linux, Mac, BSD, Windows / Checksum: SHA256 (signature)

Input
Enter an IPv4, IPv6, `.onion`, or I2P address and the port your node listens on. Bitcoin Core uses port 8333 by default.
Result
A reachable node links directly to its Node Status page. Unreachable nodes return the live connection error instead of a fabricated status.
Privacy
The submitted address and port are used only for the connection attempt performed by this standalone deployment.
