Ubuntu VPS Depin Node Setup with Chrome Extensions & Proxy Tips!
Introduction: How to Run Any Depin AI Project on Your Ubuntu VPS Using a Google Chrome Extension
Running Depin AI projects on a VPS is an effective way to access advanced AI tools without relying on high-powered local devices. In this guide, I’ll show you a straightforward method to set up and run any Depin AI project on an Ubuntu VPS through a Google Chrome extension and Docker container. By using Docker, you can access the setup conveniently from your mobile or desktop browser, keeping CPU utilization low while efficiently running the project. Follow the steps below for a seamless configuration that works well on both mobile and desktop platforms.
Disclaimer:
Since this setup runs on a VPS, it’s important to note that data center IPs can be easily detected, potentially leading to account restrictions or bans. To reduce this risk, I recommend creating a fresh account specifically for this setup. This method isn’t guaranteed to work without issue, so treat it as a trial where success may vary based on detection.
The following items will be required:
- VPS is required here OS- Ubuntu, you can get a free VPS from Oracle.
- A residential proxy is required here to avoid the ban. You can run it without a proxy. You can buy a proxy from here.
Buy VPS:

wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rajeshpalei/CryptonodeHindi/refs/heads/main/chromevmbot.sh&& chmod +x chromevmbot.sh&& ./chromevmbot.sh
- You will be prompted to enter your username and password.

http://<ipaddress>:3050

Let’s set up the proxy in Chrome:

- Go to the “Profile” section and add a new profile, as shown in the screenshot below.
- Customize your browser as needed for each profile.
- Install all the required dependencies.
Note: Your CPU utilization might increase depending on the number of profiles you add. Monitor your system’s performance frequently.
To uninstall the Chromium browser from your VPS, please execute the below command.
cd ~/chromium/
docker compose down
