> Ethereum is a far better coin for all practical purposes
Typical HN/SV response when it comes to Bitcoin. I'll give anyone on here $1000 in BTC/USD/ETH if they document how to run a full node on Ethereum before May 2021. It's impossible to do without state of the art tech and bandwidth.
Bitcoin on the other hand, can be run on a Raspberry Pi, and people can agree on how many Bitcoin exist at ANY time.
How many Ethereum exist right now? Pro tip: Nobobdy can agree
- AlwaysBCoding 6y agoAWS offers a hosted Ethereum node service now. It's pretty simple to set up. I would be glad to walk you through it for $1,000.
- LAMike 6y ago> AWS Not gonna make it... also if you looked into the costs it would lose you money if you took me up on that bet. I have a better idea: Stacks sats and stay humble.
- AlwaysBCoding 6y agoYou can export the chaindata at any time and run geth on another OS, AWS is just a convenience because it's easy to spin up and easy to devops. It costs $300/month to run, I'm using it in production and it works great so far. I'm still glad to take your $1,000 if you'd like a full tutorial.

- sprafa 6y agoWhat do you mean people can't agree about the number of ETH? Are you talking about ETH vs ETH Classic? I don't see why running a full node is such a huge problem. Do you think this means ETH will somehow fail to scale? Seems like the team could solve this eventually, while Bitcoin team hasn't solved anything for a long time.
- LAMike 6y agoWhat do you mean people can't agree about the number of ETH? Look up #SupplyGate on Twitter > I don't see why running a full node is such a huge problem. Of course you don't lol > Do you think this means ETH will somehow fail to scale? Yes > Seems like the team could solve this eventually "Eventually" .... Yeah move fast and break things typical SV logic > Bitcoin team hasn't solved anything for a long time Scoreboard
- sprafa 6y agoSure, then, answer your own questions. #supplygate seems to be a bitcoin-eth debate. I think bitcoin is a dead project, in terms of innovation. Explain then - what's the issue with lack of full nodes? How will ETH fail to scale, and why wont a competitor like Algorand or Tezos pick up the mantle?
