I'm planning on making the investment so I can contribute to the Bitcoin ecosystem, but before doing so, I have some beginner questions:

1-If I deploy my bitcoin node, do I have to transfer my crypto from my trezor over to my new wallet?

2-When creating a Umbrel account, a seed phrase is generated, is that seed phrase related to my wallet, or only to Umbrel?

3-Does it matters if I keep my node running on a laptop vs raspberri pi? (due to raspberry prices, It seems cheaper to just buy a laptop and install Umbrel on it)

4-Is it safe to use a third party software to connect my trezor or a ledger to my bitcoin node?

5- I noticed that Ledger allows you to connect to your own node, is that a good option instead of using a third party software to connect it?

Thank you in advanced!

When transferring BTC to my ledger. do I really need you use a new address every time? is it really necessary?

getting the addresses white listed is annoying. -_-


** thank you bitcointalk community for your help from my previous questions posts it helped me a lot

I would like to have some exposure to BTC outside of just the crypto market, and I have invested in some of the mining stocks like RIOT and MARA, what is your take on these companies moving forward?

From my understanding, the higher hashrate a pool has the more likely it is to hit a block. Wouldn't hitting more blocks on average than other pools mean it can reward its miners more and payout more consistently?
