Are you running a node anon? Did you know you can self host your own lightning node and receive zaps right to it?

The reasons you may want to run a node vary:

You want to verify your own transactions in a self-sovereign way.

You want to coinjoin in a self-sovereign way.

You want to spend via the Lightning network.

You want to run a Lightning routing node, meaning you want to earn fees for helping others transact.

You want to run BTCPay Server.

It could be any of those things, or all of them. Depending on how much you need to do with your Bitcoin Node, there have never been more options out there.

Let's discuss.

I am thinking about setting up RaspiBlitz, the display seems to be the priciest part.

If it’s cost prohibitive you can set it up without the display.

True, this is more of a solution for a store. To simply run a node, just LNd, Core Lighning or Eclair is needed. And a Bitcoin, Electrum or Neutrino node.

You can use the raspiblitz headless in conjunction with something like an iPad if you already have it

Ah, cool, skimmed too fast over that part :)
