F.A.Q.

1. How much does it cost to run a node?

Running a node doesn't cost anything. Anyone can download, install, and run the Bitnet Core client in their computers. It is compatible with Windows, Linux, and MacOS devices, and the hardware requirements are minimal.

2. Can I run a node on AWS, VPS, or Cloud Server?

Yes. You will likely not be able to perform any mining, but as long as your machine or virtual machine meets the minimum requirements as far as hardware, you should be able to run a Bitnet node.

3. Can I mine with my CPU?

You can, but given the current difficulty you probably will not be able to generate any Bitnets with it.
