Do you run a #Bitcoin node?

How about an offline hack-proof node? Nothing safer than never letting even your hardware wallet touch an internet connected computer. Blockstream Satellite is very likely bouncing photons off your head every time you step outside. All ya got to do is listen…the service itself is free.

Yes. But, the good news is you don’t have to trust them. The block headers are costly to produce. If the company were to provide false blocks, it’s either easy to discover or expensive for them to falsify. Plus it’s easy to verify the chain tip out of band.
