I recommend you read the Start9 (npub126n…e9ll) Docs and their warnings for using Bitcoin Software on Raspberry Pi :raspberrypi: (npub156q…ttfe) :
#1
“Warning
READ CAREFULLY! DO NOT USE A RASPBERRY PI FOR RUNNING BITCOIN SOFTWARE! You will have a bad time. The pi is a great choice for other use cases, such as file storage, password management, git hosting, etc.”
#2
“Warning
READ CAREFULLY! Start9 recommends AGAINST using an SSD with the Raspberry Pi. It can lead to server instability and data corruption. Instead, we recommend using a large, high endurance microSD card. If you insist on using an SSD, please ensure you are using a high-quality USB cord and the SSD is independently powered by a high-quality powered USB hub or case with powered expansion board. Even then, you will likely encounter issues. See the Community Hub for more info.”
- Power Supply (20w - 5v/4a recommended)
- MicroSD Card (high endurance, 64GB minimum) (if you go against our recommendation and use an SSD, you will only need a 32GB microSD card, and it does not need to be high endurance
The whole Lightning Network gets enormously more resilient, if plebs around the world stop running Tor-only Lightning Nodes on Raspberry Pi, expecting to earn revenue on routing fees.
Just listen to the magnificent podcast episodes on Raspberry Pi :raspberrypi: (npub156q…ttfe) critics with stephanlivera (npub1r8l…x5dk) and k3tan (npub1txw…yt4x)

If you don’t want to priority you’re scarce time on a full podcast episode. At least prioritize to listen to this short fountain_app (npub1v5u…n0v5) clip I made from “SLP411 K3tan Why Raspberry Pi Bitcoin Nodes Are Bad” since you’re asking a lot of questions on StartOS and Raspberry Pi.
