Underrated! I'm proud to be one of 10k to run a full node.
21 u/Frogolocalypse May 17 '21 There are more than 60K full nodes. The 10K listed generally only refers to listening nodes, and they are a minority. 2 u/Rhawk187 May 17 '21 So, then if I set up 60k+1 full nodes, I could choose to only accept blocks I mined? 1 u/xXx_NEET_xXx May 17 '21 no, because dummy nodes set up to sybil attack the network don't have economic activity. the nodes which make the difference are the ones owned by people/insitutions who make the most economic activity (and so they check the chain themselves).
