apt-get install dialog apt-utils -y

you need to set up the Chia repository. Afterward, you can install and update Chia Blockchain from the repository.

Set up the repository

  1. Update the apt package index and install packages to allow apt to use a repository over HTTPS:
sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install ca-certificates curl gnupg
  1. Add Chia’s official GPG Key:
curl -sL https://repo.chia.net/FD39E6D3.pubkey.asc | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/chia.gpg
  1. Use the following command to set up the stable repository.
echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/chia.gpg] https://repo.chia.net/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/chia.list > /dev/null

Install Chia Blockchain

  1. Update the apt package index and install the latest stable version of Chia Blockchain
sudo apt-get update
