Hey guys. I was just curious if most people actually modify their .conf file. Do you set a limit on the connection? Do you set up rpc info? I was thinking of connecting it to a Ledger device. Any neat ideas on that? Thoughts?
I didn't manage to make my bitcoin core work with the Ledger HW, but I also didn't spend too much time on that, since I do prefer the way Electrum works with Ledger.
Hence after having Bitcoin node, I've also set up an Electrum Server (well, a block explorer too) and I use now my Ledger with Electrum on my local Electrum server over my local Bitcoin node.
I've documented my steps, including the bitcoin.conf contents, here:
