BCH uses Bitcoin Cash Node. Toolkit treats it like other Core-family chains: conf, datadir, full history, honest IBD.

Mainnet, testnet, and regtest. Do not confuse this page with Bitcoin Core — different catalog pin and ports.

How to install Bitcoin Cash node

Choose mainnet, testnet, regtest in Toolkit, then follow these steps to provision and run a Bitcoin Cash full node.

  1. Install the panel and host agent using the documentation, then register the server in the panel.
  2. In Add node, select Bitcoin Cash and the required environment.
  3. Review the network options, start provisioning, and follow sync status and logs from the node page.

Operate from the panel

After the node is up you manage it in the same UI — Node Config (edit the live files and apply), client updates, restart, logs, public RPC. You do not need SSH to change conf. Install-time choices (snapshot flavor, history window, disk layout) are stored on that node.

FAQ

How do I install Bitcoin Cash full node?
Install the host agent, add the server, then choose Bitcoin Cash and an environment in Add node. Toolkit provisions Bitcoin Cash Node (bitcoind) and tracks sync from the panel.
Can I change the Bitcoin Cash config later?
Yes. Node page → Node Config. Edit and apply; restart from the same page. A different snapshot or history flavor is an Install choice — changing it later usually means wipe and Add node again.
Pruned or light?
Full BCH chain, prune=0.
