What are the benefits of running a full node besides helping the network? Do you actually get paid?

I am thinking of setting up my own wallet recently too as my accumulation now nears 10 btc.
If you register a btc address with your node (via https://bitnodes.21.co/) you have a shot at a small cash prize every week, or at least they used to do that.  And you might just get a random donation from someone, but no you don't get paid as that is not the point of running a node.  You run a node to help the network and to have control over your coins.  With 10btc you surely want to have control over them.

Meanwhile ... I've been rather annoyed at the luck lately, not coz it's been that bad, but more coz it's been so damn unreliable
... and I keep thinking conspiracy theories Tongue

So, to cheer me up, and hopefully everyone else, I've added a column to the top of the stats table on the blocks page.
-ck requested this a while ago, and I finally added it Smiley

It's the overall expected PPS% given the numbers displayed and also after removing the pool fee.
I'll add a blue '?' popup at some later date, explaining it.

Given such great stats, I don't think miners can find a more attractive pool anywhere else Grin

thank you



If you have your own node, then only you have control of your bitcoins.
If you have something else, then you don't have control of your bitcoins.
I still don't get why people are happy to give their bitcoins to someone else ... ... ...

Block Smiley

I will explain.

 A lot depends on what you are looking to accomplish by being on an exchange. My guess at the % of what the people there was.

⅓ of the people there  were truly stupid to have the coins there since they were not  using the features the exchange offer.
They were lazy even if they were doing buy and sell  I read 20 or more people that had all in and just there.  truly stupid.

⅓ of the people  were and are in multiple exchanges have a node and a wallet.  they  lost 5%- 10% of all the coins they have because they don't have every thing in one spot.

I am in this bunch.


⅓ of the people  wanted easy interest by providing margin loans  you earn 10 maybe 15% a year  this is easy money until a crash.


I am going to talk about my  uses of bitfinex.

 I mine  BTC  and yeah ETH/ETC    I know don't mention  the other coins  but from my viewpoint until BTC provides more then the current 700,000 per day transaction cap they are a necessary evil  as are the exchanges.   we do 300,000 transaction on the btc blockchain each day  we are capped at just under 700,000 max if every one was a 226 byte size.

So back to me I mine btc here it goes into my payout address and sits around  every once in a while I empty the address.

I mine the two alts.  I put 50 etc and 50 eth in bitfinex on margin loans getting an easy 10 to 50% interest rate.

other then the 50 + 50 above .

All etc and eth minings I convert to btc  put it in my coinbase

Nice to see three blocks already for today with my morning coffee!

Let's make it a banner day! Blocks, Blocks, and more Blocks!    Cool

Unfortunately, I'll have to shut down my miners for most of the day because of rain storms. Thank goodness for my MRR rental. The rental found a block early this morning!  Smiley

More BLOCKSSSSSS!

How much disk does a full node need?
It is just a Bitcoin wallet with the entire block chain downloaded?

84.7 GB right now. It's on a spare TB drive.

Yes, but it is also processing transactions as I'm connected to anywhere from 8-15 peers at a time.

Edit: It may be better on Linux, but my Linux laptop didn't have the space so it's on Win10. (A locked-down tight win10, I should add.)

What are the benefits of running a full node besides helping the network? Do you actually get paid?

I WISH you got paid a fraction on transactions!! But no, you're just helping the network process transactions faster. Also, I'm using the built in Core wallet for my coins and all of my keys. You can also choose the tx fee you wish to add to a spend for it to begin confirm in the length of time of your choosing. But I'm sure other wallets have that feature.
I'm just doing it because I can and to take control of my coins and keys. Feels good to be able to help the network in some small way also.
It's very easy to do.

I'll do a ckpool restart in ~3 hours at about 10:00 UTC

Update to improve performance.
Miners should simply see a reconnect in cgminer if you happen to be watching it Smiley
As usual, rentals may or may not reconnect depending upon the rental source handling that properly.
In 6 minutes ... and counting ...
Done.
All ok Smiley

A few Bitcoin cores running on several machines?
Wait, they have to have their own ip on the Internet?
No.

It just means it's less likely to be found if it uses a different port.

But btcd itself solves that by going out and finding others to connect to.

That is correct having several node cores running on the same network is pointless.

You would have to have more than one public-facing IP address. And have the nodes on different subnets, probably. I think if you can run one, that would be sufficient. Smiley
