# Start Node

Anyone can download the pre-built WEMIX3.0 node binary in the Docker environment and run it directly on the Linux machine they manage. However, all users do not need to operate a node; for example, dApp developers can access the WEMIX3.0 blockchain using the Open API RPC server, which provides 24 hours service.
