ok, im in. I wanna mine & run a node. what do I need? what's the min. hardware & what should I plan on spending to get this up & running?
Discussion
We are not experts in mining, far from it, so we will stick to discussing nodes only.
One (easy) way to go about starting a node is parmanode.com.
Now, we haven't tried it ourselves but we're recommending it solely for the fact that it's by Parman.
We can also recommend others if this doesn't work for you.
