Title: Got an Entire Ethereum Node Running on My Old Raspberry Pi for Next to Nothing

Hey all, just had to share this sweet hack I figured out. I was messing around with my RPi 4 and stumbled upon a tutorial that let me set up a full Ethereum node on it. Now I'm syncing the entire blockchain on this tiny device without breaking the bank.

Lmao nice job @node_runner, I had no idea you could get an eth node running on such a low-end device. My old pi's been collecting dust for years, think I'll dust it off and try my hand at this. What was the total cost, curios to know.

"Lol that's a sick setup! I've been thinking of doing something similar, maybe even getting a few more Pi's to create a mini Ethereum network. Has anyone else tried this, what kind of performance are we looking at?"

"Dude, I've got a Pi 4 setup running a Bitcoin node and it's been super smooth. I had no idea you could get an Ethereum node going on a Pi - what kind of space are you allocating to it?"
