So you don’t leak your xpubs to a “custodial” aka someone else’s node, validate your own transactions, zero risk of censoring yourself, audit the timechain yourself, enforce the rules of the protocol
The miners just hash for valid blocks with what the nodes give them. Plebs run this shit
Also until stratum v2 comes out even if you mine you’re connecting to the node of your mining pool, not your own node
if you are hashing for valid blocks and then publish those to cash out, that's called running a full node... you're literally building the blockchain.
Ummm no. A full node doesn’t hash for blocks
then we're not talking about the same thing
last time i ran one of those, if you had a Bitcoin server, it was hashing - but this was years ago
(we're talking pre-GPU mining, back when it was mainly hobbyists who were into Bitcoin)
Lol yeah that was a while ago. Before my time. Nowadays you can run a full node on a raspiblitz and if you mine your hash power is part of a pool, and that pool runs the node you’re connected to 🤙
Raspberry pi*
Fuck i do that all the time (my node is a raspiblitz implementation, that’s why)
