Why people run their own node
Your own node verifies transactions by your rules: no trusting someone’s block explorer, no address leakage to third-party APIs, and privacy for your wallet queries. A no-KYC VPS paid in Monero closes the loop — the operator isn’t linked to the node.
VPS от $8.50/мес. Email, пароль от 12 символов, затем криптосчёт.

Launch nowPruned still verifies?
Yes — full validation, minimal storage. It just can’t serve old blocks.
Is running a node allowed?
Yes — nodes are a flagship workload; port 8333 is open.
Monero for a Bitcoin node?
Why not — the invoice coin and the node’s coin are independent choices.
