¶ What is RoninDojo?
RoninDojo is a Samourai Wallet focused full node implementation that also supports most other popular bitcoin wallets. Simply put, it's a private and user-friendly way to power your wallet.
This software provides any level bitcoin user with an easy and mostly automated way to deploy a privacy oriented bitcoin node packed with useful features. It is designed to run on single-board computers such as Rockpro64, RockPi4, Odroid N2, Raspberry Pi4, etc.
¶ Do you offer a plug & play option?
Soon 
¶ Do you support Lightning?
No, we do not plan on doing so at this time, and our focus is currently on base layer privacy. We can come back to this later pending adoption, privacy, and stability improvements for average node operator. Here is the current state of lightning network privacy.
¶ How do I update RoninDojo?
You can use the command line menu option to update.
¶ How is RoninDojo different from other node implementations?
RoninDojo is heavily focused on being the default node option for Samourai Wallet users. We closely follow their development team to ensure that our users are always the first to stay up to date with the latest Dojo and Whirlpool upgrades. We aim to be the simplist and most reliable way to connect your Samourai Wallet with your own full node.
We work hard to maintain a useful set features and applications to meet our users' needs for bitcoin privacy and general usage.
That being said we do support other wallets, hardware wallets, and have all kinds of features worth looking into if you want to run your own node.
¶ Can I reuse or transfer my blockchain data from another node?
Yes, see more information on the blockchain data page.
