You can use PPA which maintained by Luke--Jr, https://launchpad.net/~luke-jr/+archive/ubuntu/bitcoincore.

Not sure if this method is no longer functional because this package[1] is not maintained anymore but from the guides that I found online (some recent ones) and also past experiences, this should work:

Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bitcoind

The last command is returning this error:

Quote
E: Unable to locate package bitcoind

For bitcoin-qt, I ended up installing it from the Snap store (because I was getting the above error as well) but I can't seem to find an alternative way to install bitcoin daemon?
