Enable snaps on CentOS and install bitcoin-core

```
sudo yum install epel-release
sudo yum install snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap

```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.

after :

```
sudo snap install bitcoin-core

```
