When they say

"But Bitcoin nodes are hosted on the cloud,"

look closer.

It’s "centralized hosting"... in a decentralized way.

Don’t trust. Verify.

(And no, my nodes are staying far away from the cloud.)

WHY ONE NODE CAN SAVE BITCOIN

Think of Bitcoin like a giant library of truth that anyone can read or help maintain. Nodes are the librarians who make sure no books are lost or rewritten.

If most librarians worked out of one building (like "the cloud") and that building burned down (or the internet went out), the library would be in trouble.

That’s why we need librarians (nodes) spread everywhere—especially outside the cloud. Even if the internet goes bust, one librarian with a copy can rebuild everything.

So no, Bitcoin won’t die if the cloud goes down. It’s stronger because people like me keep nodes at home.

Stop worrying about the price

Mempool.space but there are many others.

Yep. Doing my part. My node is on my raspberry pi.
