Yes. Node runner. Why? I'm not a tech guy but can run a node and play a critical role in securing the #bitcoin network.

Do you think itās too tech for most to run a node? Iām curious why anyone would want to stack BTC and not be a part of itās beautiful structure and securityā¦
I know it is not tech holding people back. Maybe cost of the node is an issue. I used to run the raspberry pi that was an adventure in tech + $200 usd.
The new umbrel home server is plug and play with no tech required... only need about $400 usd.
So I'm thinking cost has to be an issue. If I only had a few million sats, I might not run a node and just buy more sats.
Iām running mine on my NAS with my laptop, but I have a bit more than a basic home network. And a pretty weak laptop. But it gets the job done. Iām at about $400 in. And there is never enough storageā¦. Lol so that number will at least double this yearā¦.
