I will begin recording the first build of the node series early next week. If you’ve built a PC before this will be either boring or a refresher for you.
If you haven’t, this will be a good start. It’s much easier than it looks.
If some of this equipment looks outdated, that’s because it is. There’s two reasons for this.
1. To show that nodes can and should run on older hardware. Lowering the barrier to entry. And helping cut down on E-waste.
2. It’s what I have on hand. And since I’m doing this completely at my own expense, I need to keep costs down everywhere I can.
I have enough equipment to demonstrate building about 6, maybe 7 nodes of varying difficulty/power.
It’ll take about a week to build, record and edit each one. To save sync time I may bootstrap the blockchain. Haven’t decided yet. I may not to show the difference in sync times between different builds. (Leaning towards that direction, after all, this will likely be what you experience.)
I will be uploading to YouTube, Rumble, X and possibly Primal/Nostr if it can handle the long videos. (Unsure)
So make sure you subscribe now and turn notifications on. It’ll help me gauge how many are interested.
Thank you all in advance. I love sharing my knowledge. And helping others grow with theirs. 😁
