What’s the one thing that can destroy Bitcoin? You.
Not hackers. Not “bans”. Not some corporate boardroom deal. 2017 showed the real battleground: the blocksize war, the New York Agreement, SegWit2x, and a whole lot of pressure to “just accept” a fork. The protocol’s rules only survive when enough of us enforce them, by running nodes, choosing self custody, and refusing to treat Bitcoin like another bank account.
Mission 12 from The Game of Satoshi is a good reminder: Bitcoin is code plus people. If we outsource verification and accept custodial IOUs as “good enough”, we can kill the point without touching a line of code.

Definitely agree with the sentiment @npub1rcr8h76csgzhdhea4a7tq5w5gydcpg9clgf0cffu6z45rnc6yp5sj7cfuz@momostr.pink
#Noderunning is not passive income. It's not earning 'yield' on your sats. Most nodes will never be profitable. But that doesn't mean they can't be with some effort and patience. Most important factor overall is stability; That includes running on decent hardware (not raspi) and offering a clearnet connection rather than TOR-only. These two points alone will eliminate a very large percentage of avoidable forced-closures, which is *by far* the #1 biggest cost in maintaining a public routing node.
#Nodelou🐈 is currently a month short of its 3-year nodeiversary, and is earning sats consistently every day. Many others earn multiples of this in far less time and/or with smaller nodes, so this is just an example.

~MORE IMPORTANTLY~
My node is my sole banking/checking account and has allowed me to #optout entirely of fiat banking. It's my privacy layer on top of #Bitcoin. It hosts my own @npub18d4r6wanxkyrdfjdrjqzj2ukua5cas669ew2g5w7lf4a8te7awzqey6lt3@momostr.pink instance and my personal Bitcoin Core verifies my own txs. It also runs my @npub155m2k8ml8sqn8w4dhh689vdv0t2twa8dgvkpnzfggxf4wfughjsq2cdcvg@momostr.pink that powers @npub1sweetl0gskmka0n5qevt7v2wj9q56ntwkmaeywffw4ftaucmcakquhns6h@momostr.pink, our farm webstore, and also functions as our in-person POS at farmer's markets connected remotely via @npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5@momostr.pink. I use it to buy products online, pay bills, and send/receive self-sovereign zaps. I can travel anywhere in the world and access my funds with no intermediaries or restrictions. Even if it cost me to keep it running– the services and utility it provides in my daily life are absolutely indispensable over the costs of using traditional banking services. Not to mention tons of highly-valuable education and skills acquired, and a couple good #norderunner friends along the way! 🤓🤙
I never set out to earn from my node: I just aim to provide a stable connection hub for my peers with high uptime and low-latency, good channel connections, and try to set the lowest fees possible while maintaining flow and channel balance. The rest is just patience. #runanode
