Run a Full Node
Discussion
Knots, core, or v30?
My 13 year old son took my old Raspi 4, wiped it and put nostr:npub1aghreq2dpz3h3799hrawev5gf5zc2kt4ch9ykhp9utt0jd3gdu2qtlmhct on it. Took weeks on the IBD but he stayed strong. Then he spun up a lightning node and now he's waiting on Electrys to index. Probably finished now but he's in bed.
No. I did not help him at all other than giving him the Raspi.
Curious, did he have any previous knowledge? Just figured everything out on the go using internet/AI? Awesome either way π€
Since he was a baby he's been listening to Bitcoin podcasts every time he was in the car with me. Same goes for his sister but she was about 3 when I fell down the rabbit hole.
No way he couldn't have picked something up by osmosis. I told him about the importance of running a node. But, in the end, he picked Umbrel and did all the dirty work. I had to explain why the IBD was taking so long etc. but this was pretty much all him.
Run run run . I canβt. I need sometimes off from my computer for a weeks or two . Itβs easier to use Alby hub cloud . Let them cloud open 24h While I go fishing ,Catch trout .π
Running
Our little node is doing some heavy economic lifting all while streaming on Nostr 24/7 and hosting all the spam π It's so Metal that they had to cut undersea cables yesterday in the Red Sea, disrupting internet in Asia trying to silence us π
