    export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
    export GOPATH=$HOME/go
    export GO111MODULE=on
    export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin:$HOME/go/bin
    EOF
    source $HOME/.bashrc
    

Install build-essential
-----------------------

    sudo apt update -y && sudo apt install build-essential
    

Install Miniconda
-----------------

    cd
    mkdir -p ~/miniconda3
    wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -O ~/miniconda3/miniconda.sh
    bash ~/miniconda3/miniconda.sh -b -u -p ~/miniconda3
    rm -rf ~/miniconda3/miniconda.sh
    ~/miniconda3/bin/conda init bash
    source $HOME/.bashrc

    conda create -n nimble python=3.11 -y
    conda activate nimble
    

Install nimble-networkd and create wallet

    mkdir $HOME/nimble && cd $HOME/nimble
    
    git clone https://github.com/nimble-technology/wallet-public.git
    
    cd wallet-public
    
    make install
    

### Create wallet

    nimble-networkd keys add <YOUR WALLET NAME>
    

**You must back up your mnemonic here or you won’t be able to recover it.**

Start Miner
-----------

    cd  $HOME/nimble
    git clone https://github.com/nimble-technology/nimble-miner-public.git
    cd nimble-miner-public
    make install
    source ./nimenv_localminers/bin/activate
    make run addr=<The wallet address you just set>
