Title: Questions about Bitcoin Core and Bandwidth on Local Network
Post by: wallaby32_psn on November 16, 2017, 12:05:26 AM
So, I have unlimited bandwidth monthly with these speeds: http://www.speedtest.net/result/6797318159.png (http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/6797318159)


Anything useful I can do with Bitcoin Core?

notes: I don't have much GPU power at all. I do have SSD's with 500GB+

Any advice/replies are welcome.

thanks,

 :)

I doubt it... maybe a full node? Bandwidth doesn't mean much once hit internet beyond your carrier... you're limited to all of the world's internet infrastructure... routing, etc.

I know this is an old post but, does anything like this still apply?
