This's a common theme on the internet.
Person A says rpi is bad for purpose X.
I ask why.
People start commenting that there's better compute for similar price.
Except it's not answer to what I asked. My question isn't trying to discover best compute for pi price, it's trying to discover what's bad about pi for purpose X.
"Why pi is bad for purpose x?" and "Can I get better compute for purpose X w/ similar price point?" are different questions.

Well yes, Micro SD can't stand to this, that's a very well known thing. I've been only running BTC node for a month but I've been using USB SSD powered multiple rpi for years, and been running a Monero node for the last 10 months w/o any problems. I'm using 4 for different reasons like Home Assistant, remote VPN and seed box, n8n instance, Monero and BTC nodes, media/Samba/Plex server etc. They've been pretty reliable overall. That's why I asked. So, I didn't start using these yesterday, or a month ago. Wondered what's the thing you encountered that I haven't in years on multiple different rpi and use cases.
You keep saying it breaks or it's shity, but not mentioning what breaks or what's shitty exactly? USB HDD speeds? Overall system reliability? Are the HDD enclosures controllers dying on you? Is it the cable? Is it the USB port? Is it the operating system? Is it the lack of AArch64 software support? Cooling? Processing power? Ram? What is it? I'm no fanatic of any SBC, just trying to understand why the most popular SBC that I've been using w/o problems is bad for this purpose.

""shitty node and a shitty experience and bound to break in less than 2 years" can you expand on that? Mine looks to be running fine for about a month now on rpi5. Haven't encountered it "breaking". IDK what you mean by node breaking.

"raspi won't cut it"
Are you so sure?
The BTCPay server I'm running on rpi5 claims otherwise.
Also there's pruned node option, so you don't need 1TB.

My guess is that Monero has slightly increasing demand and w/ attacks on fiat offramps like LocalMonero, it's harder to obtain in a truly private manner, which's reflected on price but IDK.

Bitcoin is institutionalized, I think it's too late for it.
Snowden's latest BTC talk was great.
As he said:
"right now the reason everybody's getting excited about the prices they're thinking about you know ETFs or whatever we don't really want that to be the thing that moves price even if if price is moving uh because that is a kind of subordination that is a kind of subjugation that is a process of taming uh that we see being played out uh we need to look at more fundamental things. the influence that these institutions are having on the ecosystem and there are positives and I'm not saying there won't be right like institutional money Flows In number goes up everybody's happy great sure uh but then you get a lot more of these Manhattan offices you get a lot these processes you get a lot more of this pressure to submit to
submit to these processes in these institutions that you do not control that you cannot influence um and we should focus on what we can influence"
