Full Listening Nodes allow inbound connections from other full and light clients like hnsd, and are instrumental to a decentralized network.
This is an SDL file that will deploy a full listening handshake node onto akash.

Deploy using CloudMOS: https://cloudmos.io/cloud-deploy

Step 0: Choose the "Empty" option and paste the SDL file.
Step 1: Create a unique name underendpoints:
You will be changing line 4. Leave the colon.
Step 2: Use the same name to replace line 14. Leave ip: only change the name.
Step 3: Wait until the blockchain has synced (check the "logs" tab to see chain height) then edit the --public-host command to reflect the instances public/static IP address. (Check the "Leases" tab for the IP) Once changed, click "Update Deployment"
