MULTISIG_ANTI_HACK=did:key:z6Mkj5mKz5EBnqqsyV2qBohYFuvTXpCuxzNMGSpa1FJRstze
MULTISIG_ANTI_HACK_KEY=To launch the node, execute docker compose up -d from the command line (or docker-compose up -d depending on your docker compose version).
For real-time log observation, use docker logs vsc-node -f.
The node is designed to self-update as necessary. However, on rare occasions, the deployment configuration may require manual updates not covered by automatic updates. Should such a situation arise, we will inform the community through our usual communication channels discord and twitter.
You can disable automatic updates by setting the environment variable AUTO_UPDATE to false. However, we recommend to keep this feature enabled to ensure the node is always up-to-date. In our rapidly evolving ecosystem, it's crucial to keep the node updated for optimal network health.
