#asknostr Does anyone know if there is any way or benefit to use an ASIC miner to pair with a lightning node? Or do you just have to have a second full node for lightning on a second device?
Separately can you use an ASIC for all the standard btc node operations in addition to the mining like sending btc?
Noob questions.
Up front confession: I haven't mined yet so I hope someone more qualified can step in to answer this question/correct me if i'm wrong.
But as far as I'm aware you cant run a node on an ASIC. You either need to run a seperate node or get an integrated miner with the node and ASIC in the same package. Nodes and miners ultimately perform different functions.
Thanks
