[2017-03-02] The True Cost of Running a full Bitcoin Node

Bitcoin’s existence largely depends on how many people are using the peer-to-peer cryptocurrency. A bitcoin node can be an individual miner minting Bitcoins from his laptop or a chain of companies with complex mining rigs mining Bitcoin on a commercial scale. All these nodes keep the Bitcoin network running.

A full node is a program that fully validates transactions and blocks. Almost all full nodes also help the network by accepting transactions and blocks from other full nodes, validating those transactions and blocks, and then relaying them to further full nodes.

Bitcoin nodes also have inbuilt bitcoin wallets for management and usage of funds deposited in the wallet.

make sure you are running a Core node so that we can make progress and have some cool features like LN in the future :-)
