A practical build: the parts you need, why an SSD matters, and setting up a low-power always-on Monero node yourself.
How blockchain pruning works, what it keeps and drops, when to prune, and how to run a pruned node that still fully validates.
Read the Monero network live — current transaction fees, block reward, difficulty and the total circulating supply — straight from your node or a block explorer.
