Miners do not require a GPU and can run on low-tier machines as long as they have adequate network bandwidth and disk space for the local SQLite database
Validators require at least 32 GB of RAM and a decent CPU (4+ cores). Do not require a GPU but need good network connectivity to query miners and validate data.
Clone the data-universe repository
git clone https://github.com/RusticLuftig/data-universe.git
Create and activate a Python virtual environment (or use Conda)
cd data-universe && python -m venv venv && source venv/bin/activate
Install the data-universe package and dependencies
python -m pip install -e .
Create a Bittensor wallet and register a hotkey (see Bittensor docs)
btcli wallet new_coldkey --wallet.name your-wallet && btcli wallet new_hotkey --wallet.name your-wallet --wallet.hotkey your-hotkey
Register your hotkey on Subnet 13
btcli subnets register --wallet.name your-wallet --wallet.hotkey your-hotkey --netuid 13
Set up optional .env file with API tokens (Apify for X/Reddit scraping, or Reddit OAuth credentials)(optional)
echo 'APIFY_API_TOKEN="your_token"' > .env
Start the miner using pm2 (install pm2 first if needed: npm install -g pm2)
pm2 start python -- ./neurons/miner.py --wallet.name your-wallet --wallet.hotkey your-hotkey
Verify the miner is actually scraping data (check logs for successful scrapes)
pm2 logs <process-name> | grep -i 'scrap\|status 403\|status 401'

Register your hotkey on Subnet 13
btcli subnets register --wallet.name your-wallet --wallet.hotkey your-hotkey --netuid 13
Set up .env file with API tokens (Apify required for validators; Reddit OAuth optional)
echo 'APIFY_API_TOKEN="your_token" REDDIT_CLIENT_ID="..." REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET="..."' > .env
Start the validator with auto-updates (recommended; requires pm2 and git)(optional)
pm2 start --name net13-vali-updater --interpreter python scripts/start_validator.py -- --pm2_name net13-vali --wallet.name your-wallet --wallet.hotkey your-hotkey
Alternatively, start the validator without auto-updates(optional)
pm2 start python -- ./neurons/validator.py --wallet.name your-wallet --wallet.hotkey your-hotkey
