You're not helping people by supporting Tor though, Tor is a liability.
Not sure, more TOR node are available, more Tor is functional and scalable.
The optics are worse for Tor users are considerably worse than BTC users.
I know, in fact I often discuss this with policeman friends. And that's why, at my friend's, the TOR node runs on a RaspberryPI and the BTC node on a Mini PC
Residential nodes don't help the network, they're a net drain on gossip data.
I do not agree with this. If everyone had a BTC node, decentralization would be total and censorship absolutely impossible.
The only reason to run a residential node is validating Bitcoin you receive or otherwise powering an application that uses the chain and gossip data.
The initial idea was to start an LN node at a later time, but for a thousand reasons we gave up.
I personally like nodes that are treated like SCADA systems vs. HWW's, so good on him that he wants to do that, I was just trying to understand... That said, all the more reason to use SSH instead of Tor though. Tor should be nowhere near a system like that.
I wouldn't know how to insert the node into a SCADA system. I will try to document myself. The SSH tunnel is intriguing me, I'm already doing and testing with my own server, but already having an ipsec VPN creates routing conflicts for me. Tomorrow I'll stick to the neighbor's wifi to do high tests.
You're welcome, I try to use my sperg powers for good 🫡
I thank you for this, I have always been very open to comparisons. The exchange of conflicting ideas is always constructive for everyone.
