EU power outages remind me of why I think going off-grid should be on the long-term “to-do” list of every bitcoiner.

You can have your node and your self-custody setup, but if the State cuts the power cord (intentionally or unintentionally) and you have no alternative source of power, you’re screwed.

Sure, the equipment is expensive and requires a lot of learning, but everyone should be gearing towards this, one step at a time, imo.
