Everyone that has at least 1 BTC should be running a full node

As we just saw with the invalid block produced by Marathon Digital the Bitcoin network was able to recognize this invalid block and reject it. This is possible because of all the full nodes running the Bitcoin software and the invalid block not meeting the consensus rules.

Those that hold 1 BTC are serious about Bitcoin and should be running a full node. If you want to enforce the Bitcoin consensus rules and protect the network against accidents like we just saw or any future malicious attacks then you should run your own full node. It protects your Bitcoin as well as everyone else using the network.

No, you don't need 1 BTC to run a full node, the more the better.

Thank your attending my TED talk.
