is this safe even I'm not your neighbor? hehehe kidding aside I don't have much any idea about how peers works that why I ask about it and if you mention that if I already have good connection I think 7-8 connection are showing with my wallet and a daily .04 bullion is coming when staking has been matured, what do you think alex do I still need to add your configuration or it doesn't help because I just only have few amounts of cbx stored from my wallet?
Hello,
If you have 7-8 connections and you are sync with blockchain it's enough do not worry about that
Hey Alex , my rpi3 arrive on Monday 16 May , it will be the new home of my CBX vault. The pi project you have is in which os??
Hello,
The RPi Vault is using Raspban OS, i am doing a premade image that should install all automatically, but i am actually still have troubles on install i don't really know why, these issues are random i am actually debugging it.
But you will be able to test it if you want, of course.
Hi there I'm getting my rpi3 on May 16 . Will use it just to stake CBX . Can it be a node also ? Since I dun turn if off , which os should I use?
Every wallet are nodes basically, so yes it will be also a node, the only "need" is that your internet router (usually also your internet provider) allow remapping port with UPnP.
As elambert said, do not trust random people. Anyway there is pratically no risk of an attack by node, but just don't trust random that's better.
Except if you have connections problems, which is pretty rare because the Vault automatically detect new nodes with IRC seed and DNS seeds nodes, you shouldn't need to add the conf file with addnodes, it's not needed. It's needed only in very particular case when your Vault can't find one at all.
It's also very easy to find some trust node on our blockchain there:
