The Importance of Running a Bitcoin Full Node: A Deep Reflection on Network Fees and Decentralization Design
The Significance of Bitcoin Network Fees and Running a Full Node
Bitcoin network fees are a commonly misunderstood topic. Firstly, the term "Gas fee" does not apply to Bitcoin; it is more suited for Ethereum's transaction model. Bitcoin's fees are calculated based on transaction size, not on computational workload.
Recently, the congestion and high transaction fees caused by BRC20 tokens on the Bitcoin network have attracted a lot of attention. This not only affects user experience but also leads to a significant increase in the UTXO set, which may bring uncertainty to the future development of the Bitcoin network.
Running a Full Node is crucial for maintaining the Bitcoin network, even though there may not be direct economic benefits. Full Nodes play a key role in protecting the integrity of the network, resisting censorship, and enabling trustless verification. This is very important for safeguarding personal financial privacy and the ability to trade freely.
Full Node operators can also play an important role in network upgrades. For example, during the Segregated Witness upgrade process, the BIP 148 proposal demonstrated how Full Node operators can actively promote the upgrade process. This indicates that Full Node operators have more choice than one might think.
The design philosophy of Bitcoin is to limit any single power in order to protect individual freedom. It does not worship power, but instead pursues a system that is free from single points of failure and resistant to censorship. This design makes Bitcoin stand out in the field of cryptocurrencies.
Overall, understanding the complexity of Bitcoin network fees and the importance of running a Full Node is crucial for a deep understanding of the technical and philosophical foundations of Bitcoin.
