Thank you as well for your note on this!…
I’ll just add that I personally see Bitcoin strictly as a monetary system—and that’s the only role I support for it. Since I switched to running Knots (initially as a test on one of my nodes), the change has been wonderfully quiet—especially compared to when I was running Bitcoin Core. This silence isn’t just soothing for my ears… my dogs are sleeping better too! 🐾 And beyond comfort, it likely helps extend the device’s lifespan by giving the RAM a real break. 😉
