I have noticed a lot of bitcoiners say they don’t run a full node and I wish that would change. Whatever qualities of Bitcoin that you think you like and wish to see in the world you get none of them(or at least a watered down version) if you don’t run your own node. Still using usd and not paying for everything in Bitcoin is a much larger hurdle to get past. But running a node for some reason is scary to people when all you have to do is download an app on almost any computer and open it.

I’m curious as to why you have not done it yet and what would push you to finally do so?
