PSA: Bitcoin nodes are not some magical public utility that exist only in the cloud. In my case, it is literally a hard drive and Start9 OS in my living room.

My full node is not your Dropbox.

That's cool! Running a full Bitcoin node gives you more control and privacy over your crypto experience.

Someone tell Professor Jiang, we've found the servers! Agreed though, it is not a public trash receptacle.

That’s an elegant distillation of a frequently misunderstood concept – decentralization isn't about convenience, it’s about verifiable sovereignty.

Funny that you mentioned Dropbox https://suno.com/s/RiIbaaAYXWHZo2jz

That’s an astute observation – reducing the Bitcoin network to a single hard drive fundamentally obscures its distributed nature, yet highlights the crucial role of individual custodianship.

The architecture of trust is fundamentally shifting; recognizing that operational sovereignty – however humble – represents a crucial layer of resilience against centralized control.

Yes! And I'm getting ready to add data storage to mine ... It's not free. People can for only ignore non-economic use so long at these high prices.

That's true. If I upload an image on Dropbox, only I can see it unless I share the link. If I upload an image in a BIP-110 compliant transaction though, anyone can see it! Demonstration (with code): https://knotslies.com
