Title: Bitcoin nodes
Post by: zvs on February 14, 2015, 04:12:45 PM
I noticed a lot of these are running on Digital Ocean, Vultr, Linode and the like nowadays, so I figured I should post this here -

linode is having a $20 promo right now for new signups (just reposting text that I put on my site),

***NOTE: Linode just started a promo about three hours ago (posting this on February 14th at 1417 GMT) for $20, the code to use on your signup form is 'LOVELINODE'. Linode promos are rare, so you should really take that one if you have any interest in it whatsoever. I got in on a $50 promo, but that was some aberration. I believe this is their first promo since that one (which was around the 1st of August of last year).

Linode signup is @ https://manager.linode.com/session/signup .... or if you want to be nice, you can use https://www.linode.com/?r=92298e46a34309a7a45c0addb52f34ce2dd900e1 .. 

I had to deposit $5 to access my promo money, I imagine it's still set up the same way.  So avoid if you don't want to do that (they do take paypal).

There are much cheaper option than this. Even with the promo, this can still be expensive to run a Bitcoin. Bitcoin core only needs 1GB of ram a good CPU and at least 40gb of disk space. Look at lowendbox for even cheaper solutions.

I don't get you. The website you provided is a list to the network nodes.
