What is a Bitcoin node and why to Run?

A Bitcoin node is a computer that runs the Bitcoin software. Your node is your own version of the Bitcoin blockchain and rule set. Think of it as your own gateway to the Bitcoin ecosystem. It broadcasts transactions, verifies the bitcoin you receive are legitimate and maintains your privacy by allowing you to participate without reliance on anyone. When you connect your wallet to your node, you are not trusting anyone else to verify your transactions.

A node helps to protect you from bad actors and it also keeps the network decentralized. If you do not have your own, you are trusting in someone else’s node to tell you how much bitcoin you have and to broadcast/receive your transactions for you.
