The importance of running a #Bitcoin node continues to increase.
With Traditional Finance moving into the space via ETFs, big changes are ahead.
The importance of more independent nodes in the Bitcoin network continues to increase, to ensure strong decentralization over the long term.
It’s not too hard to envision a future where TradFi uses their huge marketing budgets, and government’s own influence, to try to convince miners and node runners to vote for things that seem like good ideas, but that ultimately benefit corporate interests, and not things like self sovereignty.
If you have not yet set up a node, please consider doing so. The cost is reasonable, as is the effort. Plus, there are lots of articles, videos, and people able to help you make this a reality.
