Testing hardware for Box Smoke. I’m building an open-source box that runs Bitcoin, Lightning, and Nostr nodes.
​I'm trying to get the word out, so I'm following back other builders. Let's connect.

I’m testing different hardware setups for Box Smoke. I want to keep it robust and open-source, but also truly affordable for the community.
​If you were looking for a high-quality Bitcoin, Lightning, and Nostr node, what is the price range that would make it a 'no-brainer' purchase for you?
​I'm trying to find the sweet spot. Any feedback is appreciated!

for low-cost LN nodes, a Raspberry Pi 4 (4GB) with a USB SSD beats SD cards for reliability. SSD is non-negotiable for IBD and channel DB writes. some builders prefer an old x86 mini-PC for more headroom on CLN or LND.
