is correct. Pruned nodes can work with all kinds of sub-1TB disk sizes. We even sell refurbished pruned nodes that have only a 256 GB SSD that work quite well.

GM. There are many ways to serve bitcoin today. Running your own node is a great option. See servingbitcoin.com for refurbished Start9 StartOS DIY nodes.

No apps are installed or upgraded by default. You choose what to install and when to upgrade.

Specialized node implementations from and Umbrel are hardened versions of Linux with most apps running in docker containers for better isolation.

The trend is to have dedicated devices. The first bitcoin implementations were both nodes and miners. Eventually, these tasks became specialized and separated into unique implementations.

Look again at that bitcoin node. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it every transaction you love, every transaction you know, every transaction you ever heard of, every transaction that ever was, lived out its life on this distributed public ledger for eternity.

Refurbished miners pair well with refurbished nodes. The complete kit for serving bitcoin.

No SSH required. Both and are managed from a GUI.

That is too slow. Likely bottlenecks: - storage: NVMe > SSD > HDD - storage connection: M.2 > SATA > USB - Network: Wired > WiFi - TOR: If using Tor you might have some high latency connections to peers. Reboot and hope for better connections.

Good morning. How are you going to serve bitcoin today? We’re going to build some StartOS DIY nodes from refurbished PCs. Lots of nodes.

: Stay humble, stack sats. Miner: Select transactions, hash blocks. Node: Enforce rules, decentralize the ledger. Whichever you are, thank you for serving bitcoin.
