I am frequently asked when I announce the completion of one of the node guides on Reddit questions like, "Can I mine Bitcoin on the Node?" or "How much money does it make?" and things like that.
The nodes are of course essential to the network, but it's a rather humble task. The owner doesn't really benefit.... Until now!
How would you like your own personalized bitcoin address?
This guide is a simple implementation of samr7's (this forum) VanityGen program.
The direct link to the guide is:

So now put those spare CPU threads to work and generate your personalized address!
