Is there a os-less way to run Bitcoin on hardware?

not really

That’s not a no tho

well, you would need to reimplement everything from NVMe/AHCI drivers to memory allocation to a filesystem yourself.

But why? Why do this?

Just trying to understand how possible it may be.

And to possibly try to experiment with an idea

You want minimum overhead? I’d recommend building a stripped down Linux image. The kernel is pretty minimal

Interesting… how hard is it to do something like this?

SeedSigner does that

you could make a Bitcoin unikernel by statically linking to only the needed OS code. But will the effort pay off for your use case?

Interesting… i have no idea of knowing if it would "pay off"
