215 sats \ 0 replies \ @DemandUtopia 16 Sep 2022 \ on: SLP414 Matt Hill RaspiFUD or fact? Bitcoin nodes and security bitcoin
Y'all must be holding a few dozen sats to get so worked up about spending a few hundred in a dedicated Bitcoin PC. I have a HP desktop mini, with a 6th gen i7 (low power T-series), 32 GB of RAM, and NVME SSD. Cost about $500.
Runs Ubuntu, my Bitcoin node, and a bunch of other related things. I'm a Linux noob, and I was able to figure it out.
I think people got carried away with the Blockchain wars meme about "you can run Bitcoin on a pi" and thought that was actually an idea solution.
