Ok… I’m a non techie but I run a node with a few Bitaxe Gammas pointing hash to Ocean and have loaded Bitcoin Knots. I’m into making a contribution to the decentralisation of mining and want to grow into solo mining. It all feels aligned to the original Bitcoin ethos and feels very much like the right thing to do

There is a known issue with Knots in that after 2 years it needs restarting otherwise your node won't follow the main chain. You of course need to know this if you're intending to make money off mining.

Knots is maintained by a single developer so please be wary of what's on your miners.

I'm on no side (Core vs Knots) but there is a healthy debate currently happening.

Thanks for the pointers. I’m in for some sats but the principal is the bigger issue for me.

Likewise I don’t have a side be it Core or Knots but I’ll do what I can towards decentralisation at every opportunity

No, there isn't. Stop making things up if you're supposedly "on no side"

I may have misunderstood the note I read https://nostter.app/nevent1qqsr37n6p6kcqsln0v7gde6lgnyudee8nnyzhnja0w4hr9wvqyz33wclvawmu

I'm not attacking you or your project, you're an inspiration. I'm trying to share information, not increase animosity.
