The Raspberry Pi 5 was just announced yesterday. For this week's #FOSSFriday, I'm going to tell you about RaspiBolt! If you've ever wanted to run a Bitcoin and Lightning node and you've wanted to build it from scratch, giving yourself full control over the whole process, this is your guide. There are no Docker containers here. 🔥
RaspiBolt is a popular software project that allows anyone to set up a Bitcoin and Lightning node on a Raspberry Pi. This makes it a relatively affordable and easy way to support the Bitcoin network and participate in the Lightning Network. ⚡
RaspiBolt is also a great way to learn more about Bitcoin and Lightning and learn about Linux in general. The installation and configuration process is well-documented, and there is a large and active community of users who are happy to provide support. 🐧
BONUS: You don't have to use a Raspberry Pi Either. That's right. You can use this guide for essentially any hardware. Just don't complete the Raspberry Pi specific configuration steps. I promise you, it will be fine.
When I rebuilt my node a few months ago, I mostly followed this guide to make sure I wasn't missing anything. It works great. I don't use a Raspberry Pi. I use a 4 year old Laptop. 🔥
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
