The fact that you use the word "noderunners" shows how much of an idiotic retard you are. You do realize running a node does literally nothing? being a noderunner does fuck all for the network.

Nodes that do not mine and produce blocks for the blockchain are entirely useless to the network, their only use is for you as bitcoin user to verify your transactions for yourself, and to do so without requesting blocks with your transactions from someone else's node, letting them know which addresses are yours which is a privacy concern.

That's it.

There is zero benefit for bitcoin if you are core "noderunner" or knots "noderunner". neither one benefits bitcoin's security or the confirmation of new transactions. The only reason to do run a non-mining node is to verify your own transactions in the blockchain without having to rely on someone else. The only additional benefit, is you're doing so more privately by querying your own node instead of chainalysis' node.

You can directly infer how stupid someone is by if they use the noderunner, and they are even more stupid if they think they are somehow "protecting" or "saving" bitcoin by being one.
