This way, you are helping the network and obtaining top tier security, nobody can steal your money (given that you aren't an idiot installing malware in your computer)
>want to download full node >no bootstraps for some alt shitcoins >sync takes YEARS
I never asked for this
Parker Thomas
I really want to run a full node and support the network. I have a NAS running 24/7 anyway. Can anyone tell me though how much network resource does this need? I have a monthly 1TB capped connection with 80Mb/s down and 10Mb/s up. Thanks.

>You summerfags need to understand that the point of crypto is to be your own bank.
I don't want to be a bank, I want to make bank.
Mason King
>Do not store crypto in exchanges. It's impossible to steal crypto if you have 2fa enabled. Just sayin.
I've been looking for something like this since 2014!
Justin Howard
>implying hackers actually need your account credentials to steal your crypto. The exchange controls your private keys mah goy.
Mason Flores
I got one of those several weeks ago. It's freaking awesome and totally worth it.
Leo Thompson
are you being ironic? the exchange owners can take your shit or just pretend to be hacked
Sebastian Fisher
will bitcoin ever have staking? That's the only reason I will ever hold the bitcoin core wallet open for more than 5 minutes
Josiah Sanchez
I also think there should be some sort of incentive developed for maintaining a full node.
Ryder Fisher
>download a BITCOIN CORE FULL NODE But why, lol?
A paper wallet is more than enough. It's already stored in the blockchain.
Connor Rodriguez
it's not the hackers you have to worry about. Check what happened to MtGox, or to Vircurex exchanges rise and fall all the time in crypto world. Keep a backup of your money, send wallet.dat to yourself on an email (encrypt it before you do it obviously, and don't forget the password)

>trusting a core fag >ever
Henry Rivera
so that now you will lose all your money if you lose that hardware?
Joseph Edwards
You will have no problems at all. Thanks to the Core devs the blocksize has been kept at 1MB so people can run nodes. Notice how CIA agents like Gavin Andresen, Roger Ver, want to make the blocksize huge so only corporations can full nodes. They are terrorists against Bitcoin, and this is why the blocksize must be kept as conservative as possible. If pajeet can't pay the fee, then wait for the lightning network.
I would be ok with a 2MB blocksize if we got segwit via softfork and software developed by Core (not the recent "agreement" between corporations at Consensus 2017)
You can also run a UASF node to enforce segwit blocks begining in august 1:

bad goyim bad!
keep your shekels in my bank you stupid goyim!
Christopher Thompson
>download a BITCOIN CORE FULL NODE why?
Jose Brooks
The reason to run a Bitcoin Core node is that you are helping your own investment by supporting the network and you are having 100% certainity of the transactions being valid, you are having top tier privacy etc.
Of course plebs like you would rather run some shitcoin PoS to stake coins.
Well the good news is, once lightnig network is developed, you will be able to make bitcoin by running a lightning network hub:
kek, fucking listen to yourself. >muh pure and honest core devs saving us from le big bad miners #uasf >2nd layer solutions will fix everything! Just trust us with creating this complex mess so nobody else can ever take our positions >$3 transaction fees are normal and okay
Literally anyone in the first world with a spare $300 can run a 4mb block full node, disk space is cheaper than ever and so is bandwidth unless you're in the sticks
Logan Ortiz
UASF is going to win brother. #UASF #BIP148
Fuck all the paid shills. We will have SegWit Aug 1st 2017 instead of never. SegWit2MB is never happening. All big blockers can suck it.
Michael Walker
Sure is summer here.
This means nothing.
An agreement without the Core devs while people run 95% of Core software is stupid. It was corporate nonsense.
What we need is a softwork segwit SF then a HF to 2MB later.
If the miners don't agree then UASF.
www.uasf.co
Notice how if segwit is deployed by way of hardfork, the covert ASICBOOST scam of Bitmain continues, but softwork segwit kills it.
That "agreement" was Bitmain bribing people so he can keep their scam.
The evolution of the characters changing their narratives after all those years is clear. I don't expect better from summerfags but i've been in the game since 2010.
With the information available in 2017, it's clear that being able to run full nodes is an essential part for a decentralized bitcoin.
If the so called "agreement" happened in an scenario where people couldn't use full nodes, that would be it, you would obey your jew corporate overlords and that's all, because we wouldn't have a say as users.
Ryder Gray
nd layer solutions will fix everything! Just trust us with creating this complex mess so nobody else can ever take our positions
The only way to scale to global levels and enable for cheap fast microtransactions is throught second layer solutions. The stupidity of wanting to run everything on layer 0 is as dumb as disregarding https "because it's more complex".
You have been brainwashed by Roger Ver or under his paycheck.
Visit /r/btc too. I visit both subs and to be quite frank find it an incredibly interesting showcase of how well you can propagandize people.
In /r/btc they have one version of reality, in /r/Bitcoin(and the other two forums theymos owns) they have another.
Just remember two things though, and you can't deny them happening after the old core team got replaced by the new: 1. Bitcoin has gotten slower. 2. Bitcoin has gotten higher fees.
This is undeniable no matter how much downplaying you can throw at it by things youve read...
This has also slowed the growth of bitcoin. This too is undeniable unless you want to play stupid. All of this has happened in the name of a "fix" for which the miners got blamed for not implementing.
That's like the executive of a company blaming his users for not accepting his product.
