There are also incentive programs that pay you to run one (due to this benefit). Thanks for the hint! Found the Bitnodes project ( topic about it in this forum). Are there any others? I dont know about any other incentive program, but here is the direct link -> https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/nodes/incentive/There are only 170 nodes participating as of now, so if you have a full node running, get started. Its ~0.6% chance to win ~0.03 BTC. Those are pretty good odds for doing basically nothing.

So is a Full node basically just running Bitcoin-QT?
All day everyday and open port 8333, otherwise it's not a full node. Running it 5 minutes a day and only allowing outbound connections its still called a full node, as long as it can sync in that time. A full node is any network node that is capable of enforcing all the network rules. then everyone is running it, because we need to sync everyday if we want to make a transactions i wasn't aware that synching it for your normal activity was intended as a full node, that's good

Also as coinableS pointed out, its just the "official" definition of a full node. Most users probably see this differently even if they use bitcoin core as their wallet.

Do You have a Bitcoin Full Node running? (I mean roughly 24 hours/day service, including server with dynamic IP address) I've setup a Full Node (IPv4 Tor-only (not really "hidden" service), to strengthen Tor) some days ago (Version 0.8.6, currently 39 GB disk usage), to strengthen the Bitcoin network. A newer version is unfortunatelay not not available for my OS, currently. I use that node also as a honey pot with a small wallet balance, so I'll hopefully recognize, that if something is missing, my computer got probably compromised... See also https://bitcoin.org/en/full-nodeYour are welcome to post which config (IPv4/IPv6/Tor...) Your are running, or why You are not running a Full Node. Im looking for that post, witch are instructions to use Rasperry second version at full node. Its on 24/7I found it!

If you intend on running a 24/7 full node and helping the Bitcoin infrastructure, then you can always buy a dedicated hard drive for it. Otherwise, are you sure that you can't free up some space in your current hard drive? The blockchain is relatively small when you look at the current specifications that are being sold by computer manufacturers, e.g 1TB hard drives. It is possible to run a full node on the latest raspberry pi module, if you are interested in it. Although it would need a little tweaking as it's the bare minimum really. (of course you would still need to purchase something to store the blockchain on)

Looks like a Mac to me. Anyway, you need to make sure your router is forwarding the port 8333 from the outside to the machine running the node.

I will look at router settings. thanks. I fully reset router and it now works. got an email notice and all. ping time is 200 ms I am interested to see if that improves.

okay so I have the node running. I am trying to set an address to allow me the incentives. https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api/#node-bitcoin-addressNODE BITCOIN ADDRESS Set Bitcoin address for an activated node. Node must be activated separately, i.e. from https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/nodes/<ADDRESS>-<PORT>/, before it can be updated using this endpoint. POST https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api/v1/nodes/<ADDRESS>-<PORT>/ I was able to see my node by putting it into the above post. I do not understand how to put in the btc address. Parameters: bitcoin_address - Bitcoin address for this node. An empty value is allowed to remove the existing Bitcoin address. url (optional) - URL for a static public web page containing the same Bitcoin address. URL must match either http://<ADDRESS>:<PORT> or https://<ADDRESS>:<PORT>. <PORT> is optional and must be below 1024, i.e. privileged port. IPv6 URL is distinguished by enclosing the ADDRESS literal within square brackets, e.g. http://[<ADDRESS>]:<PORT>. This endpoint must be requested from a client with the same IP address as the node that is being updated. It may take a few minutes before the Bitcoin address is verified separately. The verification process requires the node to have a static public web page at http://<ADDRESS> or http://[<ADDRESS>] for IPv6 URL (if url parameter is not specified) that contains the same Bitcoin address. Verified Bitcoin address will be kept for 30 days before it is verified again using the same verification process.Examples: $ curl -H "Accept: application/json; indent=4" -d "bitcoin_address=1DNgdwsFkX1dtCnYiAKSd4zxAuwgv2jhie" -d "url=http://148.251.238.178" https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api/v1/nodes/148.251.238.178-8333/{ "success": true } $ curl -H "Accept: application/json; indent=4" -d "bitcoin_address=1DNgdwsFkX1dtCnYiAKSd4zxAuwgv2jhie" -d "url=http://[2a01:4f8:202:81b1::2]" https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api/v1/nodes/2a01:4f8:202:81b1::2-8333/{ "success": true }

-snip regarding incentive-
You will need to run a web server that is showing at least the address you want to register. Afterwards you run the curl command given from the same IP. As you are behind your router this can be done from any machine in your local network (unless its using proxy, VPN, tor, etc.). This means both here. The web server can be a different or the same machine the command can be used from a different or the same machine. More about the incentive here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=952996.0There are also tips for Windows running a server IIRC.

Not sure why I can't vote anymore , but that's my vote "Yes, official version 0.10.x" Most of the time I keep running it for 24/7 however sometimes I need to reboot the PC so can't do anything about that . but my PC is always ON so I have no problem keeping the Bitcoin Core client ON too .

I ordered full node hardware, its expensive but worth it I maybe modify in future couple allso of raspnodes running 24/7. 35 dollars is not so bad newest version of rasberry + components :I Hope i get job/money :I I put server in off mode at nights, raspnode is better opinion (0.02- 0.05 dollars at elektricity on 24 hours)

I love that's there's actually something that I can do to contribute to the community that is extremely easy and low cost. I really like your idea of using it as a honey pot to see if your system is compromised, I might have to borrow that idea!

What is the minimum setup to run a full node on Linux ?
What is the minimal hardware I could use ?
I cannot use my laptop any more, no more drive space, too slow when I work and I have to turn it off at night.

Yes that's the thing : there is no point of running a slow node. It needs to be fast and effective.
