Run node on current hardware

Bitcoin Reddit

More / Bitcoin Reddit 154 Views

Hey everyone, I've been reading quite a bit about running one's own node and its benefits. However, I don't feel like spending a tone of money on it when I have some hardware I think I could use (also I'm saving up to get a ColdCard).

What I have

Okay, so I've got a laptop with a really decent CPU and 16GB of RAM. It also has a 1TB HDD. It is running CentOS, so the Linux part is covered.

What I am looking for

Mainly, having my own BTC node (doesn't have to be full sized, maybe around 50GB is fine?), a lightning node and an electrum one, all of it being accessible through Tor.

I've seen some stuff like mynode (however, some features are paid and needs to be installed as a complete OS and running it in a VM might affect performance) and Umbrel (only works on Debian based systems).

What are your recommendations to achieve what I am looking for with what I currently have?
