I want to get a #Bitcoin lightning node set up using a Raspberry Pi and also use it for a Nostr relay. Anyone got any tips on what to buy and a price range?

Buy a Raspberry Pi 4 and a 1-2TB ssd. Flash umbrel to the SD card and you have everything you need!

Good luck!

So you think 1-2 TB would be enough? Just trying to facotr in chain growth is why I ask. Thanks for responding initially ๐Ÿ˜

The current size of the blockchain is about 500GB so 2TB should last a while! But if your budget allows you then go for 4TB if youโ€™re worried๐Ÿ˜Š

Right on! Thanks for the advice. Have a great day! ๐Ÿ˜Š

You too ๐Ÿ˜Š

I'm currently "playing" with Umbrel...

One thing is strange : no HTTPS or WSS access ๐Ÿ˜จ

Ok there is Tor and tailscape, but I am used to seeing "S" anywhere, even on LAN...

Wouldn't you need to install a security certificate to get that to work? I'm not saying that's what needs done, just trying to conjure stuff out of my still half-asleep brain

@umbrel and pi 8gb 1tb ssd and your fine! Perfect for me.
