BigchainDB Server requires [gevent](http://www.gevent.org/), and to install gevent, you must use pip 19 or later (as of 2019, because gevent now uses manylinux2010 wheels). Upgrade pip to the latest version:
```
sudo pip3 install -U pip
```
Now install the latest version of BigchainDB Server.
You can find the latest version by going
to the [BigchainDB project release history page on PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/BigchainDB/#history).
