Topic: Is it worth it? (Read 1114 times)
I'm quite near the top of the ladder: https://bitnodes.21.co/nodes/leaderboard/, You need about 100GB disk space for the full chain, one CPU is constantly busy and the monthly transfer data is around 700GB.
No, in terms of money it's not worth it. But if you have the spare capacities - why not? And yes - forget the nice talk about how you help the network. Especially when it comes from some mining pool gonzo.

network usage is ~1TiB per month (depends greatly on the number of connections though)
1 TiB of data per month?!?!?
I didn't realize the data usage would be that high.
Each transactions is so small, but apparently they add up!
(Or you are re-downloading the entire blockchain constantly)

Running a node on a virtual server would definitely be better than running it on your Desktop.
But it depends if you need to have a server with the entire blockchain.
Is 32GB of storage enough?
I would be interested in someone who runs a node to post their specs as far as storage space, network usage, etc.

~60 consistant connections (unless someone tries to DoS it)
storage: df reports 94/230G used (43%)

With 1.5GB RAM dedicated for transactions (system has 6 GB total) they are hardly ever removed them from the mempool

Running bitcoin core on slaves vps? I have a 32gb dedicated with very good spec's is it worth it?
It's not worth is in my opinion, some would argue that it is good for the network, but you don't get anything in return for it. And it's not like there aren't enough people already running core (unless there is someone who can dispute this).
I'm just saying that there are people who are far better equipped to be doing this.

Is that 32GB RAM or 32GB HDD/SSD?
You should be able to run it if you can use pruned mode.
I don't think 32GB is enough for the whole blockchain.
More nodes for the network is always good. Whether it's good for you is a whole other thing. A Bitcoin node will not get you any money, there is no compensation.
