to setup the node immediately or will they give time to procure and setup the PC? How long will they wait?
Most people run their nodes via a vps - virtual private server.
if everyone is giving the power to amazon and microsoft then it’s kind of centralised right? I think we should give extra importance or preference to home build PC
Mainnet operators currently use 11 different providers, I don't know if that includes any home setups.
As far as I know you could run a home setup if you wanted to and had the expertise, and were confident in the connection. Right @Proph151Music @criptix?
This is the case with all crypto projects but the true decentralised system should encourage or special incentivise home build PCs
I think you could ok, but I'm not aware of anyone having done so yet, so best to verify. Presumably possible for techier types.
Interesting idea. I suppose once you were past the initial set up costs, it might be cheaper than a vps?
Yes, and it's not even specialized hardware that you'd need, so initial cost shouldn't be that expensive. You will need to make sure you have stable internet connection and backups in case of electricity failure or hardware failure. That's why most choose a VPS, since they have contingencies in place
Presumably the hardware requirements are the same for a home setup, as they are for a vps?
Yes, that's correct
Does any one of the 11 accepts crypto as a payment?
Yes! The network doesn't know if you use your own Hardware or VPS - important is that you keep your node online ;)
