Bitcoin understanding is like an onion…
The split node, transaction creation software, and signing device paradigm is tricky to navigate well.
For my setup, I have a satellite connection 📡 🛰️ Blockstream Bitcoin data service to keep my otherwise airgapped nodes in sync. While it’s possible Blockstream could be lying to my node, it would be very expensive to do and it’s easy to check a few block explorers to make sure they all agree.
