igneum-seed-1 (Hetzner cx23, fsn1, 188.245.5.161:26611): built on the VM in 1,530 s, synced to the live devnet (12,204 blocks, same sink as the live node) through a non-mining relay igneumd on the Mac (the live node's addPeer RPC is refused in safe mode); the live node and the Windows PC learned the seed's address by peer exchange and dialled it. seeds.txt written. Hetzner prices corrected to USD (pricing API currency) in the plans, READMEs and scripts; current-generation types per location (cx23 EU, cpx22 sin, cpx21 US) in the cloud-devnet config.

Igneum seed nodes
A seed is a small VM with a fixed public IPv4 that runs igneumd with p2p open, no mining, RPC on loopback, and
serves peer exchange (the address manager stays on; --connect is never used). seeds.txt lists one <ip>:26611
per seed and is the file the consensus engineer bakes into the network parameters and every package reads as
SEED_PEERS. The plan, the client path and the rotation procedure are in docs/plans/seed-nodes.md.
The first seed, igneum-seed-1, was created on 3 Oct 2026 (Hetzner cx23, Falkenstein, USD 6.49 per month net plus
the IPv4). It runs the shared devnet (--devnet, no suffix).
cd infra/seed-nodes
./create-seed.sh # one VM, persistent IPv4, firewall 22 + 26611 + icmp, appends seeds.tsv, rewrites seeds.txt
./provision-seed.sh igneum-seed-1 # source tarball -> build on the VM (about an hour on 2 vCPU) -> unit igneumd, started
./health.sh # one line per seed: p2p port, unit, RPC, synced, blocks, peers, known addresses
./addpeer-from-mac.sh relay start # a non-mining relay igneumd on the Mac peers with the live node (LAN) and the seed; the
# live node runs in safe RPC mode, so addPeer over grpcurl is refused (see the script)
SEED_NAME=igneum-seed-2 SEED_LOCATION=ash SEED_TYPE=cpx11 ./create-seed.sh # the next seed; provision adds the first as --addpeer
Settings in config.sh: provider, name, type, location, image, ssh key (~/.ssh/igneum_ed25519), SSH_SOURCE
(any, me or a CIDR for port 22), NETWORK_ARGS (--devnet; a private network: --devnet --devnet-suffix=20),
SEED_PEERS, BUILD_WHERE (seed builds on the VM; bin reuses ../cloud-devnet/build/bin). The Hetzner token is
read from ~/.config/igneum/hetzner-token and never printed.
Node flags (node/run-seed.sh): --devnet --appdir=/var/lib/igneum --rpclisten=127.0.0.1:26610 --rpclisten-json=127.0.0.1:28610 --listen=0.0.0.0:26611 --externalip=<ip> --nodnsseed --disable-upnp --nologfiles --yes --maxinpeers=128 --outpeers=8 [--addpeer=<other seeds>]. No --enable-unsynced-mining (nothing mines here) and
no --connect (it would set the inbound limit to 0 and switch the address manager off).
Files: create-seed.sh, provision-seed.sh, health.sh, addpeer-from-mac.sh, config.sh, lib.sh,
node/{install-seed.sh,run-seed.sh,igneumd.service}, seeds.txt, seeds.tsv, build/ (logs, ignored by nothing: keep
the build logs, they are small).
