Bitcoin lightning node raspberryPi [How to link]

in #steemtech4 years ago

Ever wanted to run a node on the lightning network?

If this is something you are interested in doing, you might be happy to hear that it can be done on inexpensive hardware.

Why run a lightning node?

Well for one you will be securing the lightning network. Also, you will be supporting instant payment confirmations, minimal fees and increased privacy. Since the genesis of Bitcoin, the question of how to scale has been debated and different implementations of solutions have been built and tested. The lightning network is one solution that will fix the current issues surrounding the scalability of Bitcoin in the future.

I have ordered a Raspberry Pi and will be attempting to set up a lightning node upon arrival.
