This is an #Ethereum Archive Node (@erigon) running on a <$500 ARM board using 10w of power. In 2023 you can run an archive node on commodity hardware because Ethereum has always prioritized decentralization. Hardware breakdown and info โฌ๏ธ
10 ๆก่ฏ่ฎบ

Hardware โ Rock 5B board: $189 โ 4 TB Crucial P3 plus Nvme Disk: $240 โ Case + Heatsink: $13 โ Power supply: $10 โ MicroSD card: $10 Total cost: $462

Software and data โ Erigon 2.45.2 (started with 2.44 dev) โ DB size: 2.3 TB โ Sync time: ~ 3 weeks โ CL client: Lighthouse

We ran into some issues during the sync so we need more testing to make sure everything is smooth. Bottom line is: you don't need a powerful machine to run an Ethereum Archive node.

@ERIGON You guys should install TrueBlocks and then try this out: Accounting on a micro-machine.

@ERIGON Ok, this is very very interesting. Thanks for the suggestion, will take a look :-)

Wrong tag, @ErigonEth is the one, my bad.

@ERIGON Storage price will make this next to impossible for the pleb in 10+ years. #DINO...but that matches the rest of the eth maxi thinking; bad long term planning for perceived short term gain. Don't get me started on the fact more than half your nodes are controlled by Amazon. ๐

@ERIGON How long this was running and main concern is can it avoid slashing ๐คทโโ๏ธ

@ERIGON So can you finally answer how many coins are in circulation by reading it from your own node or no?
