No ETH is required to run a full node! 🥳

Why run an Ethereum full node?

🍎 Contribute to the health of the Ethereum network.

  • Check all transactions on the network are valid for yourself.

  • Don't trust, verify.

📡 Broadcast your transactions .

  • Remove reliance on 3rd parties and intermediaries such as Infura or Alchemy.

  • Increase censorship resistance through decentralization.

Running a full node has very similar hardware requirements to running a validating node. The only difference is that validating nodes .

If you follow any of the and complete all the steps apart from the deposit process (which requires 32 ETH) then you will be running a full node!
